Checking QCTV's online schedule for Ramsey, it will not be carried live.
It will be videotaped and broadcast Saturday, 10:30 am and 5 pm (if they hold to their presently published schedule).
Candidates for mayor and for the at large seat will be speaking.
Ward 2 and Ward 4: These seats only have two candidates. Hence, with no primary those candidates will not participate in a candidate forum until before the general election.
By phone, candidate Shyrock said she believed it would be held in the "Alexander Ramsey Room."
HOWEVER - the city website says it will be in council chambers. That is more likely because the camera setup and QCTV control booth are there.
Here's what the city website says:
The League of Women Voters is sponsoring a pre-Primary Candidates Forum in the City of Ramsey. The forum will allow residents to meet and ask questions of the candidates who are running for election in the primary. The forum is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 28, 2008, in the Council Chambers at the Ramsey Municipal Center, 7550 Sunwood Drive NW.
All candidates were listed earlier on Crabgrass; see, here (with known candidate websites listed for anyone wanting to have a look before the forum).
The LWV Minnesota website did not have any easily found info on it about this session.
The QCTV shchedule is here (that link is for the balance of this week, and I expect the link will not change and still be good when the schedule is updated for next week).
The city posting text is here (directly linked from the city's homepage, "In the News").
A REQUEST TO READERS - I may not be there. It might be helpful if someone there suggested that the LWV moderator and the QCTV person confirm the televising schedule and announce it at the start of the session, to confirm things.
I presume that earlier forum format will be followed: opening statements; LWV prepared questioning with alternating order of response; then questions on cards from the audience, screended for redundancy and to fit timing, by the moderator.
Please leave a comment confirming or correcting info here, if you have more reliable information about format, timing, broadcasting, etc.
