This was a very informative forum where the Chairman of the Working Families Party asked a number of pertinent questions of the Candidates running (thus far / present) for political office in the City of Kingston or on the Ulster County Legislature. 

I also took a number of short-clip videos that might actually make it up on You Tube, FB and/or here.

[I am somewhat "out of my league" (but learning) --- so if any errors have been made here, please let me know as soon as possible.  Thank you!]

Another post on this is pending, but that will be a biased opinionated post --- so enjoy this one!  I was there as a volunteer for Shayne Gallo, a guest of Jen Fuentes and a concerned citizen / blogger.  I found this event to be very informative --- and I hope the WFP will continue to host such events.

Kudos to the WFP !!!!!
