SUMMARY:Beyond the Ballot: Conversations with Candidates
DESCRIPTION:Strong communities are built when residents\, business leaders and elected officials come together to engage in meaningful dialogue. Beyond the Ballot is an opportunity to gather with a shared purpose: strengthening our region through civic engagement\, informed participation and community connection. Hosted by the Fargo Moorhead West Fargo Chamber of Commerce\, this interactive event brings together candidates and elected officials serving at the local and state levels for candid\, face-to-face conversations with the people they represent. Rather than a traditional forum\, attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with public servants\, ask questions\, share perspectives and discuss the issues shaping the future of our communities and region.\nConfirmed Candidates: Candidate NamePositionJennifer BensonND State Representative\nTom Berglind\n\nClay County CommissionLisa BorgenMoorhead MayorCara Cody-BraunND State Representative\nKyle Davison\n\nND State SenatorNyamal DeiND State SenatorEvett EllisMoorhead City CouncilCharley JohnsonMoorhead City CouncilJim JoyMN State RepresentativeThaddeus LaugischMN State Representative\nJudy Lee\n\nND State SenatorDave MarquardtMoorhead School BoardTim MathernND State SenatorCarrie McLeodND State RepresentativeBrian MeltonClay County AttorneyJenny MongeauClay County CommissionHeather NesemeierMoorhead City CouncilChad OlsonDilworth MayorChristine O'RileyND State SenatorAustin PetersonMN State SenatorMike RehderDilworth City CouncilAusten SchauerND State RepresentativeChris SnyderMoorhead City CouncilBjorn SolbergMN State Senator\nRonald Sorvaag\n\nND State SenatorScott SteffesClay County CommissionArlan SwensonMoorhead City CouncilScott WagnerND State RepresentativeDel Rae WilliamsMoorhead MayorDisclaimer: Candidates are listed alphabetically by last name\, regardless of the office they are seeking.
