Congress hopefuls face off

As the Congressional District 1 race heats up in advance of the Nov. 6 election, incumbent Rep. Doug LaMalfa and candidate Audrey Denney will square off in two public forums, hosted by local chapters of the League of Women Voters.

The first takes place Sunday (Sept. 16), 3:30 to 5 p.m. at Anderson New Tech Senior High School, 2098 North St., in Anderson.

The second forum will happen Monday (Sept. 17), 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Graeagle Fire Hall, 7620 Highway 89, in Graeagle.

Butte County’s LWV attempted to set up a local congressional forum, but LaMalfa was unable to attend. However, Denney announced on her Facebook campaign page that her team will have a videographer on-site and share entire recordings of the forums online afterward.
