Event Details
The Minnesota News Council and the League of Women Voters Minnesota in cooperation with the Minnesota Newspaper Association and its 143rd annual convention are pleased to present a Pre-Caucus Gubernatorial debate on Wednesday, January 27, 2010.
For 30 years, the League of Women Voters Minnesota has successfully sponsored non-partisan debates with candidates in an effort to educate the public about campaign issues, provide an opportunity for voters to hear candidates discuss those issues face-to-face, and stimulate public interest and participation in the election.
The Minnesota News Council is pleased to present this opportunity for members of the Minnesota media community and the general public to hear from the 2010 Gubernatorial candidates in advance of the February precinct caucuses. The event also marks the opening night of the 2010 Minnesota Newspaper Association Convention.
RECEPTION | 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.
The pre-debate reception will feature hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar. Reception attendees will have a chance to visit with candidates and the media prior to the event. Tickets are $25.
DEBATE | 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
The gubernatorial debate is free and open to the public. Seating for the debate begins at 6:00 p.m. Tickets are free; pre-registration is required.
SPIN ROOM | 8:30 - 9:30
All credentialed media will be permitted into this unique opportunity to interview candidates and campaign surrogates along with representatives of the Major Parties.
CHECK-IN | Starting at 4:30 p.m.
The registration desk will be open at 4:30 and will remain open until the start of the debate. You will receive your event ticket at the check-in desk. Tickets must be presented at the door for entry into the event.
