To help voters engage and educate voters prior to Vermont's Primary Election on Tuesday, August 9th, Town Meeting TV will present a series of election forums that feature candidates for local and statewide offices. All candidates listed on the ballot, or running write-in campaigns, are invited to participate.
 
While moderators will pre-select the candidate topics, viewers are encouraged to submit questions during live events.
 
Unless otherwise noted, the forums will be held via Zoom Webinars and will air live on Town Meeting TV’s cable channels (Comcast 1087 and Burlington Telecom 217). 
 
All election-related programs can also be found online (ch17.tv) and on Town Meeting TV’s YouTube page, including previously recorded debates with U.S. House and Senate Candidates and presentations on proposed municipal budgets.
