SWOP Action Fund Dona Ana, Nopalito’s Galeria and PRC Productions will be hosting a Las Cruces Mayoral Candidate Forum for citizens, members, family and friends and community residents who would like to meet and greet those candidates running to be the next Mayor of the City of Las Cruces.
Confirmed are all candidates running for Mayor, small business owner, Eugina “Gina” Montoya Ortega, current City Councilor Miguel Silva and current Mayor Ken Miyagishima.
This forum will be videotaped by PRC Productions and so audience members and those who ask questions will be captured and video will be posted on the swopaction.org website. Members in the audience will have an opportunity to ask a question but the question should be asked in 30 seconds and be directed towards all Mayoral candidates. Questions should be based on issues and concerns that impact citizens in Las Cruces. There will be a panel of members and community residents that will also ask questions and the Mayoral candidates will have two minutes to answer questions. Candidates will have a three minute opportunity at the beginning of forum to introduce themselves and inform citizens why they are seeking the office of Mayor and two minutes at the end of forum for closing remarks and ask citizens for their vote. This is a non-partisan event and an opportunity for those who are registered to vote in the Las Cruces Municipal election to be educated, informed, and engaged, voters.
