Hoboken Quality of Life Coalition Posts Mayoral Candidate Forum Video

Election Day is November 7^th, which means we will soon have much less junk mail to throw away. It also means that decision time is here, and Hoboken residents will have to make their choice for the future of the city. With Mayor Dawn Zimmer not seeking another term, we’re going to have a new Mayor for the first time since 2009. As usual, the issues are complicated and the campaigning has been energetic—and with five candidates running for the office, it’s a challenge to get informed. That’s why it’s once again great to see that the Hoboken Quality of Life Coalition has once again hosted a forum for the candidates for mayor and posted videos of those forums as well. All six candidates—Ron Bautista, Ravi Bhalla, Mike DeFusco, Jen Giattino, Karen Nason and Anthony Romano—participated in the forums, answering questions from citizens and discussing in detail their stand on issues and their plans for the city if elected. The forum took place on October 25^th and were held at Stevens' DeBaun Auditorium. As with the City Council forums the HQLC hosted, the mayoral forums were hosted by Bob Bowdon (professional interviewer, Hoboken resident, and Executive Director at Choice Media) and were recorded by Catherine Stratton and the AV Club from Stevens Institute of Technology. This is an ideal way to get a last look and listen to the people who want to lead our city into the future. Each video is about an hour long, and well worth your time.
