Candidates from the U.S. House of Representatives, State Senate and State House of Representatives Participated.
With candidates from three different races and both parties, the attendees heard very diverse comments in answer to their questions at our Douglas County Candidate Forum. The Moderator, Pastor John McFarland, did an outstanding job as he conveyed the written questions from the audience as well as questions from CWALAC of Kansas’ Candidate Questionnaire. Even though the candidates disagreed on some of the issues, they were respectful and cordial. The audience was also very respectful and offered questions concerning some of CWA’s core issues such as education, sanctity of life and the election of judges. The Forum was informative and everyone seemed to be pleased with the outcome.

Please pray
- Pray for the candidates, they are working so hard to attend as many forums as possible.
- Pray for their families as some are reporting health problems and the pressure of campaigning door-to-door.
- Pray for the candidates, that they will be able to give a true picture of how they will lead in the legislature.
