Voters will have the chance to meet the candidates for the 1st Berkshire District state representative seat at an Adams, Massachusetts public forum this month.
Citizen group ProAdams will host a public forum at 7 p.m. September 11th at Bounti-Fare Restaurant in Adams for voters to meet the candidates to replace State Representative Gailanne Cariddi, who died in June.
Christine Canning is the only Republican running. The October 10th Democratic primary features: North Adams City Councilor Lisa Blackmer, Stephanie Bosley, daughter of former State Representative Daniel Bosley, former North Adams Mayor John Barrett and Kevin Towle, who worked as Cariddi’s legislative aide. The general election is November 7th.
It’s not a debate. Each candidate will have 10 minutes to discuss their plans for education, economic development and community growth.
