This year’s Watertown voters will vote for Town Council President, Town Councilors At-Large, District Councilors, School Committee and Board of Library Trustees.

The evening begins with statements from un-opposed candidates at 6:30 p.m. At 7 p.m., the seven candidates for Town Councilor At-Large will be answering questions. Some questions will be prepared by the organizers, and some time will be set aside for questions from the audience.

For those interested in attending the forum in person, there will be signs outside the High School directing people to the Lecture Hall.

  1. Don’t mean to be pejorative, but WCA TV candidate coverage was a disaster and the total loss of audio just when the question of Town development was being discussed
    was particularly disconcerting. Why was there no backup? And no visual announcement of a problem.

    But to the good – we got to use our lip reading skills. Did he really say “I want to
    fill the rough patch of Waverly between Orchard and Belmont”?

    This experience confirms Watertown ranks right up there with Riddle Corners, Iowa
    and Stinking Springs, Idaho in ability to provide reliable local programming.

    I’m sorry we cannot do better, but no longer expect anything of quality from our
    Town resources and associated Town government.
