Want to meet your Kentucky gubernatorial candidates—at least a couple of them? This Sunday, September 11, candidates for Kentucky governor will speak at a public forum organized by the Yearlings Club-University of Louisville discussion series. The format differs from a debate in that each candidate will have at least a half hour to talk individually about his views and plans for the state.
Independent candidate Gatewood Galbraith and Kentucky Senate President and Republican nominee David Williams have accepted invitations to participate. Gov. Steve Beshear, the Democratic nominee, who was confirmed earlier, has since declined.
The “Conversation with Candidates for Governor” event will run from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the NIA Center, 2900 W. Broadway, and is free and open to the public. Blaine Hudson, dean of UofL’s College of Arts and Sciences, will serve as moderator, and light refreshments will be served.
