You’ve probably already received your mail-in ballot for the special Primary Election on Mar 4 (with special General Election to follow on Jun 3), but you may not be familiar with the list of County Executive candidates – We’ll you don’t have to travel far, because both Democrats and Republicans are coming our way this week on Thu, Jan 30 for a Candidates' Forum, and you’re invited.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event starts at 6:30 p.m. at the Laurel Boys & Girls Club Phelps Center at 701 Montgomery Street. The event is also expected to be live streamed if you’re unable to be present in person.

Additional information (including live stream link once available) can be found on this Bowie Sun page so come on out to learn more about the candidates and to help you cast your vote. :)

UPDATE: Here’s an article from The Laurel Independent that provides comments shared by the variety of candidates present at the forum and can be very useful to understand differences and areas of emphasis by each as you make your decision.
