Meet & Greet for State Rep. & Travis County Candidates

Wow! The WBNA Candidate Forum for State House District 50 and County Judge has now grown to include County Commissioner Pct. 2 and Travis County Justice of the Peace Pct. 2 candidates as per their request to come out and meet with the residents of Wells Branch. This enthusiasm has caused us to revise our original plan of candidate forum first, followed by meet & greet. We will now allow each of the candidates five minutes to tell us a little about themselves and why they deserve our vote, followed by refreshments and one-on-one time with each of the candidates.

Candidate Forums

voteThe WBNA will be hosting Candidate Forums and/or Meet & Greets for the following races.  Please join us in learning what each of these candidates has to offer our community.  The MUD and RRISD forums will feature an introduction by each candidate, formal questions submitted by residents, and closing statements.  As our initial ‘forum’ has grown to include the Pct. 2 JP race as well, we will be limiting the candidates to an introduction and then break to enjoy light snacks and a meet & greet afterwards where you’ll have the opportunity to visit with each of the candidates one-on-one.  Please submit questions to VOTE@wbna.us.*
