Crawford, Monroe and Vernon County Farm Bureaus will be hosting a forum for candidates in the 96th Assembly District on Monday, July 23, at 7 p.m. at the Viroqua VFW.

 The focus of the forum is for candidates to give a brief introduction of themselves and to have an opportunity to weigh in on key issues facing the agriculture industry today.

“The upcoming election is incredibly important to our counties and this forum will give voters a chance to hear the candidates’ views on agriculture issues that will impact their farms and businesses going into the future,” Robert Nigh, Vernon County Farm Bureau president, said.

This event is free and open to the public. There will be time for candidates to visit with those in attendance following the forum.  

 The 96th Assembly seat is currently held by Lee Nerison, who will be retiring after 14 years in the state Legislature. Candidates, Paul Buhr, Alicia Leinberger and Loren Oldenburg plan to participate.

With any questions, contact Vernon County Farm Bureau President Robert Nigh at (608) 689-2633 or District 3 Coordinator Melissa Doyle at (608) 574-9884.
