Local Branch President Ann Pierre said, “we are extremely excited to host the first of two forums for the large field of candidates for Mayor of Chattanooga, Tennessee.” The community is invited to post their questions for the candidates during the forum, which will be selected and answered after the prepared questions.
Additional forums for City Council candidates and the remaining field of mayoral candidates are scheduled weekly until all candidates are presented prior to early voting February 10 thru 25, 2021.
