This forum is open to all candidates in Mitchell County who wish to participate. There are contested races in Colorado City and Loraine, all these candidates will be invited to speak. We encourage those in uncontested races to attend also so you can be recognized. The Facilitator for the Forum will be Nicki Harle, Executive Director of Texas Midwest Community Network in Abilene. She has been with TMCN since it's inception in 1994 and has participated in many political events such as this. It is our goal to insure the residents in Mitchell County are informed voters when they go to the polls. Please participate and help us make this a successful endeavor.
