On November 12 get face to face with candidates

This election season, Bowen Islanders have had numerous opportunities to hear from candidates. We’ve had several all-candidate meetings, a mayoral debate and, I’m told, lots of dinner party-style events with candidates showing up to meet and greet.

This election season, Bowen Islanders have had numerous opportunities to hear from candidates. We’ve had several all-candidate meetings, a mayoral debate and, I’m told, lots of dinner party-style events with candidates showing up to meet and greet. Big meetings, though, are not everyone’s style, and the invites to “candidate dinner parties” usually only happen when people have links to those candidates – and even on this small Island, we are not always linked in that way.

So, in an effort to make sure everyone gets a chance to be informed and feel confident in casting a ballot, The Undercurrent has invited all candidates to the Bowen Island Pub on November 12. Each will be assigned a seat, and voters will get three minutes to rotate from candidate to candidate. So if you’ve got one burning question, want to get a personal impression, or simply have not had the chance to make it out to any previous events, come out to the Pub on November 12 at 6 p.m. for Candidate Speed Dating (well, not really dating!).

Then cast your ballot with confidence on election day, November 15.
