Local elections are coming up, and the Bloomington League of Women Voters is here to help voters learn about the candidates for local office. One at-large City Council seat and four School Board seats will appear on all Bloomington ballots. Voters in Districts 1 and 2 will also choose their City Council representatives.

To introduce themselves, candidates were invited to record five-minute videos, which will be available on the City’s website in early September.

LWV Bloomington will host two public candidate forums in the Council Chambers at Civic Plaza, 1800 W. Old Shakopee Road.

  • City Council Forum: Thursday, September 11, 6:30 p.m.

  • School Board Forum: Thursday, September 25, 6:30 p.m.

Submit questions in advance to lwvbloomington@lwvmn.org or bring them to the event. Forums will be recorded and posted by October 1.

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan organization that defends democracy and encourages informed voting and active participation in government.
