Community members are invited to contribute questions for any of the political races or measures being discussed this week at the Oct. 13 “Use Your Voice” election forum, presented by BenitoLink and the San Benito County Farm Bureau.Â
These questions help us to represent all of the varying interests of San Benito County. When you submit questions, be sure to identify which race or measure you’re addressing.  We will review all submissions and attempt to select the best of the bunch. Send them via email to: lesliedavid@benitolink.com or post them on BenitoLink’s Facebook page under this story.Â
The forum is being produced in conjunction with our media partner, CMAP-TV, which will broadcast the forum live during the event on BenitoLink’s home page. Hear about the proposed local measures U, V and W, and evaluate candidates for mayor of Hollister, city council, high school board and the local school district.Â
The forum starts at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13 at the Hollister City Council chambers, 375 Fifth St. The question-and-answer session is expected to take about two hours.
