Candidates Sue Boldra, James Leiker, Pat Roberts, Greg Orman, Tim Huelskamp and Jim Sherow have been invited to attend the candidate forum. The following candidates have confirmed their attendance for Thursday: Sue Boldra, James Leiker, Jim Sherow and a representative of Greg Orman’s campaign.

The forum will begin with Kansas House 111th District candidates Boldra-R, and Leiker-D. Both candidates will give their platform. Moderator Dr. Joe Romance then will open the floor for questions from the public.

First District congressional candidate Sherow, a Democrat, will follow. As of Monday afternoon, Republican incumbent Huelskamp has declined the invitation to speak at the forum.
