It’s that time of year when lots of things start creeping up: Halloween, midterm exams, and unless you’ve been hiding under the bed after seeing a spider—Election 2020. To help keep your panic at bay when you pull the curtain closed in that dark election booth (one can only think fondly back on pre-COVID days), WWMT Newschannel 3 and Southwest Michigan First are teaming up to deliver a two-week Candidate Forum series to keep you on your toes. “There’s a lot at stake in Southwest Michigan concerning long-term economic growth. Our region enjoyed great momentum pre-COVID, and citizens cannot allow our jobs, business and supply chain locations, and community vibrancy to slip away. Voters should make informed choices about candidates based on their priorities and how they plan to approach decisions around advancing our region,” said Ron Kitchens, Southwest Michigan First CEO in a forum preview with WWMT’s Lora Painter.
