The Taylorville Candidates Forum took place Wednesday night in the Taylorville Junior High School Gymnasium. Each candidate running for the offices of City Clerk, Ward 2 Alderman, and City Treasurer had a chance to address the crowd about why they felt they should be elected, and answer questions asked by the forum moderator.

After a short break, each candidate answered a “lightning round” of questions where they had five words to answer, as well as deliver their closing remarks. Newstalk WTIM broadcasted the forum live, as well as provided live video streaming of the event on the TaylorvilleDailyNews.com Facebook page. Watch for complete video coverage of the event on WTIMTV in the coming days.
