The CAAL and CAAL PAC Candidate Forum was held on January 31, with 58 attendees participating in the Saturday evening event. We thank all the candidates for their thoughtful responses to our questions based on community input and interest, and truly appreciate the time and energy they devoted to engaging with our community.

Following the forum, the CAAL PAC collected feedback and input from participants. CAAL PAC members then met for discussion and deliberation of the endorsement. We are fortunate to live in such an amazing town, with enthusiastic and talented candidates willing to serve our community. We wish all the candidates the best of luck in the March 2 election.

Here is the video recording of the forum:
