Tuesday night the New York League of Conservation Voters West Bronx Green held a forum for the 11th city council district candidates. The NCLVWBG held a mayoral forum two weeks earlier, but the format for the council forum was much different from the mayoral forum. At the mayoral forum the candidates spoke one at a time and stood alone. In the 11th Council district the format was much different. All three candidates were on the stage at the same time sitting next to each other. The other difference was that on the panel of people asking questions was the former owner (and still listed as publisher) of a Riverdale Newspaper that has been very favorable to one candidate in the race. Below are a few shots of the candidates.
Left- candidate Cheryl Keeling speaks to one of the atendees.
Right Candidates Andrew Cohen (left), and Cliff Stanton (right) work another area for possible votes.
Here the three candidates await the first question, and give one another a few pointers?
