Grace Episcopal Church, Lopez Island - Forum starts at 5.30pm

The League of Women Voters of the San Juans is sponsoring voter forums on San Juan, Orcas and Lopez Islands for county residents to get to know both the San Juan County Council candidates and the candidates for the Auditor position on the ballot for the November election. The Auditor race is between Natasha Warmenhoven (incumbent) and Heather Lee (challenger). The auditor's office is a nonpartisan position, and its main duties are financial reporting and budgeting for the county, overseeing elections, and processing licenses.

The two winners in the August election to the San Juan County council District 3 seat (Lopez Island), Jennifer Swanson and Katherine Bryant Ingman, will address the issues facing our county, learn where they stand on key topics, and compare their visions for the future. This seat represents Lopez, Shaw and Decatur Islands. All residents of San Juan County will vote for this position.

An open, nonpartisan event to hear directly from those running to lead our community.
