Eastern Washington Indivisibles Host a Debate at 5:30PM This Evening
Thanks to countless hours of volunteer effort by members of Eastern Washington’s Indivisible groups, this evening at 5:30PM you will have a chance to see many of the candidates vying to win one of the top two spots in this year’s Tuesday, August 6th, Primary Election. They are vying for the seat held for twenty years by the soon-retiring Republican Rep. McMorris Rodgers.
Welcome to the digital age, folks. This debate will be on “TV” but not exactly in the conventional sense of television.
Click on either of these links (or copy and paste into your internet browser, e.g. Chrome, Safari, Firefox, just before 5:30PM today to watch. (The one hundred seats for a live [but, hopefully, quiet and respectful] audience are already spoken for.)
