02/25/201213:00: Tenth Dems and WCPT Radio To Host Live Congressional Candidate Forum

Dick Kay

Saturday, February 25, 1:00 pm
(Doors open at 12:30 p.m)
Hyatt Hotel, 1750 Lake Cook Rd., Deerfield

With primaries around the corner, 10th Congressional District voters can choose among four Democratic hopefuls: Vivek Bavda, Brad Schneider, Ilya Sheyman, and John Tree. To help voters decide, Tenth Congressional District Democrats (Tenth Dems) and WCPT-AM/FM radio have invited all four candidates to participate in a live, on-air candidate forum moderated by veteran Chicago political journalist Dick Kay.

Admission is free.  Advance registration is not required, but space is limited; if attendance exceeds the capacity of the room, priority will be given to those who register in advance.   The forum will be broadcast live on WCPT-AM/FM radio stations: 820 AM, 92.5 FM, 92.7 FM, and 99.9 FM, and will begin promptly at 1:00 p.m.  There will be no podiums or time limits, but there will be plenty of opportunity for the candidates to talk with, question, and respond to each other.

For the past four decades, Kay has been one of the leading voices in Chicago political journalism.  He hosted “City Desk” on WMAQ-TV and currently hosts the weekly talk radio show “Back on the Beat” on WCPT-AM/FM, Saturdays from 1:00 to 4:00 pm,  which will be the venue for this candidate forum.
