NCC Special Election Debate - Tues. Jan 11, 2011 @ 6 PM Hockessin Memorial Hall

With the Special Election fast approaching for NCC Council President on Jan 13th, there have been no opportunities to get the two major party nominees to face one another in a public forum.

Today, we received confirmation that both Tim Sheldon (D) and Tom Kovach (R) will attend the special election forum co-sponsored by the Greater Hockessin Area Development Assoc. (GHADA) and the Civic League for New Castle County (CLNCC) in conjunction with the Community News.

The forum will take place:

Tuesday evening, January 11th,
Form 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM
The Hockessin Fire Company's Memorial Hall
Lancaster Pike (Rte 40) in downtown Hockessin.

Please get the word out to as many people as you can, as this is the ONLY public, live debate that will occur before the election. There will be a interview of both candidates by the Community News this week which will be published in this week's edition of the Community News. There will also be some talk radio coverage, but nothing where both candidates will appear together in front of a "live" audience.

Adam Taylor, reporter for the News Journal, is planning to attend the debate and should be able to get a story in the News Journal before election day.
