CANDIDATE FORUM 2020
The Harlan County Chamber of Commerce hosted our second bi-annual "Meet the Candidates" forum on Thursday, September 17, 2020 at 6 p.m. at the Harlan Center in Downtown Harlan. This event was closed to the public due to the COVID-19 restrictions and was streamed LIVE on our Facebook page.
This was an opportunity for the public to have a chance to hear the candidates' takes on important issues affecting Harlan County. We asked the community to submit questions for the candidates and narrowed the responses down to five questions.
​
We were again proud to partner with Harlan Community Television to televise the event for us live on their local analog and digital channels. Southeast TV will also be airing the event in the days and weeks following on their channel.
​
If you were unable to attend the Facebook Live, we have the entire candidate forum posted below! Below the video, you can find out information about the candidates that attended the event. ​
