About this event

The Leagues of Women Voters of Muncie-Delaware County, Anderson-Madison County, Hamilton County and Howard County in partnership with Woof Boom Radio and WXIN/FOX and WTTV/CBS will hold a U.S. House 5th District Candidate Forum for the public before the Nov. 5 election.

The forum is free and open to the public. Campaign handouts, campaign shirts, signs and buttons are not allowed at the forum.

All four of the candidates running for the office will participate. They are Victoria Spartz (Republican) 5 th District incumbent, and challengers Deborah A Pickett (Democrat), Lauri Shillings (Libertarian), and Robby Slaughter (Independent).

The moderator for the forum will be Steve Lindell, vice president of programming for Woof Boom Radio. Lindell has been on 104.1 WLBC for 31 years and is the director of news operations for the East Central Indiana Woof Boom Radio group.

Audience members will be able to submit questions for the moderator to pose to candidates. Questions from the audience will be screened by League members for appropriateness, relevance to issues, and repetition. As much as possible, the questions will be read as written by citizens.

People unable to attend can listen to a live broadcast on one of four radio stations in the 5 th District – Anderson: 101.1-FM, 1240-AM and Muncie: 92.5-FM, 1340-AM, or watch live video streamed on the platforms of television stations WXIN/FOX AND WTTV/CBS.
