Thursday: One night, two forums
Voters should be able to get plenty of information Thursday night about candidates in the Greensboro City Council election.
That is because two groups are having forums on the same night. The details:
The Concerned Citizens of Northeast Greensboro, 6:45 p.m., Greensboro Historical Museum, 130 Summit Ave. The districts 1 and 2 and mayoral candidates are invited. Information: Ralph Johnson, 988-6001.
The Democratic Women of Guilford County, 7 p.m. Thursday, Presbyterian Church of the Covenant, 501 S. Mendenhall St. Candidates for the district and at-large races are invited. Information: Mary Bell-Hemingway, 540-1245.
If you are trying to visit both, Mapquest.com says that they are 1.31 miles apart and that it will take four minutes.
Districts 1, 3 and 5 and the at-large seats will be on the primary ballot Oct. 9.
