Learn About the Candidates

In addition to candidates’ websites and other publicly available sources, the highly respected and strictly non-partisan League of Women Voters recently conducted Candidates Forums in some of the contested County* and local races, and the recordings are publicly available.

For the County Executive Candidates Forum, go to: Recording of LWVW-Conducted Candidate Forum for Westchester County Executive Now Available

For the Candidates Forums for the County Board of Legislators District 7, the Town of Mamaroneck Councilmembers, and the Town of Mamaroneck Supervisor, go to:  Stream the LWVLM Forum: Town & County Candidates

LWV Candidates Forums in some other contested races can be found via the website of the League of Women Voters of Westchester at www.lwvw.org or at local LWV websites linked there.

* Note: The League of Women Voters did not conduct a Candidates Forum for the Westchester County Clerk candidates, stating: “Thomas M. Roach (D) had agreed to participate in a virtual candidate forum but Sheila Marcotte (R) declined LWVW’s invitation, citing a full -calendar. … A forum with only one candidate present is an “empty chair” meeting and is prohibited by LWVW policy. LWVW regrets that this proposed voter education event will not be occurring.”
