On Monday, June 11, two weeks before the June 26 Democratic primary for the 13th Congressional District, which now includes a significant portion of the northwest Bronx, the Norwood News and Riverdale Press will be bringing you answers straight from the candidates’ mouths during a debate held on Bronxnet at 9 p.m.
Candidates Adriano Espaillat, Joyce Johnson, Charles Rangel, Craig Schley and Clyde Williams have all been invited.
The broadcast at BronxNet studios, in Lehman College’s Carman Hall, is open to the public, but seating is limited and will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Doors open at 8 p.m.
Watch the debate live at 9 p.m. on BronxNet’s BronxTalk with Gary Axelbank on Cablevision Channel 67 or Fios Channel 33 or streamed on www.bronxnet.org. We’ll also be streaming it right here on norwoodnews.org.
We will be coming up with questions based on our own research and solicitations from you, our readers. Feel free to submit your questions in the comments section here, connecting through our Facebook page or sending them to norwoodnews@norwoodnews.org. We’ll do our best to get them answered.
If you live in any of the Bronx neighborhoods new to the district (the Bronx makes up 26% of the district) — Norwood, Bedford Park, Kingsbridge, Kingsbridge Heights, University Heights, Morris Heights — this is your opportunity to become a more informed voter. Tune in.
