The League of Women Voters-Whitewater Area kindly invites community members to attend the Whitewater Municipal Judge Candidate Forum on Sunday, March 19, from 1-2 p.m. The forum is in person and will be held in the City of Whitewater Council Chambers, located on the first floor of City Hall, 312 W Whitewater Street, Whitewater. Candidates for Municipal Court Judge are Art Coleman and Patrick Taylor (incumbent). The majority of municipal court cases involve traffic, parking and ordinance matters.

The League will be assisted in running the forum by Whitewater High School students under the supervision of both the League and Whitewater High School social studies teacher Greg Stewart. The forum will be moderated by WHS Senior Alex Martin. Two other students will assist League members in sorting and selecting the candidate questions.
