Romulus residents can hear directly from the candidates appearing on the Nov. 2 ballot tonight during a Meet the Candidates Night set for 5 until 8 p.m. at the Romulus Athletic Center.
Candidates will each have a table with information and be available to talk with and answer questions in a casual and neutral environment, organizers said. The chamber has been hosting Meet the Candidate Nights similar to this one for decades.
“This is an important opportunity to speak with candidates on local issues and be an informed voter for the November election,” said Jazmine Danci, executive director of the Greater Romulus Chamber of Commerce. “We hope residents take advantage of it.”
There are two candidates seeking the office of mayor, current Director of Romulus DPS Robert McCraight and former mayor Alan Lambert. Incumbent City Clerk Ellen Craig-Bragg is unopposed as is incumbent City Treasurer Stacy Paige.
There are 12 candidates seeking the seven terms on the city council include incumbents Kathleen Sullivan Abdo; John Randolph Barden; Celeste Roscoe; Tina Marie Talley; William John Wadsworth; Eva Webb and Virginia Williams.
The incumbents are being challenged by Shakeel Ahmed; Harry Crout; Dwight David Helms; David Gary Hotz and Allen Raymond Wilson.
