The La Plata County Democrats are pleased to announce that all current Democratic Congressional District 3 candidates have agreed to participate in the upcoming two-hour Congressional District forum at noon on Tuesday, March 1.
Candidates attending will be Debby Burnett, Kellie Rhodes, Root Routledge, Sol Sandoval, Donald Valdez, Colin Wilhelm and Scott Yates. We will invite additional candidates as they announce.
The forum is virtual and the La Plata Dems are inviting viewers from around this enormous district to meet, question and learn about these candidates to be better informed for our upcoming county assemblies.
“The majority of voters haven’t had a chance to meet any, much less all, of the Democratic candidates. This might be our best chance to educate everyone about their choices,” said Herb Bowman, chair of the La Plata Democrats. Through the Caucus and Assembly process, the Congressional District 3 candidates hope to qualify to be on the June primary ballot. At least two are also “petitioning” to be on that primary ballot, to ensure their eligibility.
The Democratic and Republican winners of that June 28 primary will be on the November 2 general election ballot.
March 1 forum link to RSVP is here.
