A Burien Candidates Night will be held Tuesday, October
16, 2007, beginning at 7:00 pm, at the Educational
Resource and Administrative Center (ERAC), 15675 Ambaum
Blvd. SW, Burien. The event sponsors are the Southwest
King County Chamber and the League of Women Voters of King
County South.
Invited participants include the Burien City Council
candidates and the Highline School Board candidates.
Candidates will each be given three minutes to present
their qualifications and their platform. The audience will
submit written questions directed at one or all of the
candidates. A specific candidate will have two minutes to
respond. The opponent may make a one-minute rebuttal. The
League of Women Voters screens the questions and moderate
the forum according to a well-established format.
The evening will begin with an informal social time,
giving people a chance to visit with candidates and their
representatives and to pick up promotional material. The
City Council candidates’ forum will begin at 7 pm followed
by the School Board candidates’ forum.
