Mark your calendar! As the busy local election season begins, the League of Women Voters of Greater Cleveland (LWVGC), FutureHeights and the Heights Libraries commence our popular Candidates and Issues Forum Series.

On Thursday August 7, 2025, 6-8 pm, the Cleveland Heights/University Heights Chapter of the LWVGC will present a Candidate Forum for the Cleveland Heights mayoral primary at the Cleveland Heights Community Center, 1 Monticello Blvd. It will be held in person and via live-stream and recorded for future viewing.

A recording of the event will be posted at: https://www.youtube.com/@lwvgreatercleveland

The forum will give voters an opportunity to hear candidates discuss issues important to them in this election. Candidates will present brief statements and answer written questions from the audience. Questions may be emailed during the forum for those watching the livestream and may also be emailed in advance to: heights@lwvgreatercleveland.org.

Future forums concerning the general election will take place in September.

The League of Women Voters of Greater Cleveland is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to informing the public about our election process and the individuals who are asking to represent us in government. We do not support or oppose candidates or political parties. We advocate for policies and issues that support good government. League-sponsored candidate forums follow League procedural rules.

VOTE411.org is a website sponsored by the League of Women Voters which provides the public with verbatim candidates’ responses. This is another avenue for voters to compare and choose among candidates. It is also published as a printed Voter Guide distributed with the August Heights Observer.
