Please put this event on your calendar! As you may know, Raleigh will have a non-partisan primary on March 3rd (early voting is February 12 to 28) and a general election on November 3rd. There will be only two primary races this year: At-Large and District C. Both of those races require a primary due to the number of candidates running. The At-Large City Council race has six candidates running: James Bledsoe Joshua Bradley Stormie Denise Forte (incumbent City Councilor) Clark Rinehart Sana Siddiqui Cameron Zamot Click on any of the above candidates’ names to visit their website. All six candidates will join us for the forum!
