Monday night’s Supervisor’s forum organized by the Amador Citizens for Responsible Government group went relatively well, despite some setbacks. At the start of the forum, hosting group president Vince De Stigter informed the packed chamber audience that a sudden blood clot had required district 1 candidate John Gonsalves be admitted to the hospital. Gonsalves is said to be recovering rapidly, and he wrote a formal statement regretting his absence from the event. Jack Mitchell, Publisher of the Amador Ledger Dispatch and scheduled moderator for the event, also showed up late due to car trouble. However, once the proceedings were underway, the four candidates fielded questions in random order as selected by Mitchell. Question topics ranged from the proposed Buena Vista Casino to economic growth. The forum functioned as planned. TSPN will be hosting its own candidate’s forum with our Let’s Talk host, Larry Cenotto. Our forum will be split between two programs.
