Dear IndianaDG Readers:
The Indianapolis League of Women Voters (LWV) is hosting a series of forum for candidates to the Indiana General Assembly. I attended the forum on 9/6/2012. I am also a member of the LWV, too. The issue of renewable energy--solar and wind--did get addressed. Of course, I did submit questions. 🙂
There is likely a LWV or another group in your community that sponsors opportunities to meet and to hear from candidates for the Indiana General Assembly. I encourage you to find out when and where these events are scheduled in your community and THEN to participate. All 100 members of the Indiana House of Representatives and 25 of the 50 members of the Indiana Senate are up for election this year. There is a very large number of incumbent state legislators who are not seeking re-election. For more insight into the 2012 elections for the Indiana General Assembly see http://wp.me/pMRZi-Pz.
Tuesday, November 6, 2012 is Election Day and voter registration in Indiana closes 30 days before the election. Please encourage your family, friends and colleagues to get registered and THEN VOTE.
Also please see the Events and Activities Page http://wp.me/PMRZi-6O for details on the upcoming Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce Hobnob on 9/24/2012.
Please send me information about other candidate forums and/or debates to post to the blog.

Dear LWV Members & Friends,
We had a tremendous turn out at the candidate forum we hosted on September 6 at Big Car's Service Center. If you missed the forum and would like to watch it, you can either use the link below or check out the TV schedule below. (Comcast 28, Bright House 17, and AT&T 99.)
Please continue to encourage friends, neighbors and coworkers to attend these forums. It makes a tremendous difference in terms of the candidate responses to have actual VOTERS in the audience. A schedule is below.
Thanks and be well!
