It is a rarity in general election races of about any variety — this week a student-led debate will feature seven candidates for three seats in the Fort Collins area.
Liberty Common High School will host a forum featuring candidates in House District 52 and 53, and Senate District 14. The forum will take place at the high school, 2745 Minnesota Dr., from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 3.
House District 52 is a race which may have slipped under most radars. The candidates include Steve Yurash, with the Colorado Center Party, and Democrat Yara Zokaie. House District 53 features Democrat Andrew Boesnecker and Republican Donna Walter.
In Senate District 14, three candidates are slated to appear. They include Libertarian Jeff Brosius, Democrat Cathy Kipp and Republican Phoebe McWilliams.
Those in attendance will be allowed to ask questions of the candidates, according to an announcement made Monday during former Sen. Kevin Lundberg’s weekly grassroots call. Also, a livestream will be offered through the Liberty Common Youtube page.
