A short Council candidate forum was held at the Rotary meeting, on Wednesday, October 12, in front of a crowd of interested Rotarians and LFP voters.
Bob Edwardsen served as moderator, setting forth the questions and handling timing for each candidate’s answers and rebuttal. Before beginning the session, he called everyone's attention to Rotary's Four Way Test that we follow in our own lives of Service Above Self and in our work in the community and worldwide.
Each candidate gave a short introduction about themselves:
- LFP Rotarians: Incumbent, Ed Sterner; candidate Chuck Paulsen: and candidate Tom French,:
- LFP citizens: Incumbent, Catherine Stanford, and Brian Cathcart and Jeff Johnson.
The forum then proceeded to the several questions asked of each candidate and his or her opponent with their followup answers and rebuttals. The questions and answers were thought-provoking and will be of help for many of the listeners as they determine their voting decisions. It was interesting to see how many issues were cleared up during the civil discourse and the search for the truth of each issue.
