There will be a forum on Tuesday for candidates running for the U.S. House of Representatives and Tennessee House and Senate.
The candidate forum is sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Oak Ridge, and it is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. Tuesday, October 18, in Roane State Community College City Room A-111 in the Coffey/McNally Building, 701 Briarcliff Avenue.
Candidates running for the U.S. House Third Congressional District, Tennessee Fifth Senatorial District, and Tennessee House of Representatives Districts 32 and 33 have been invited to participate, a press release said. William “Bear” Stephenson has been invited to moderate.
Candidates for the U.S. House of Representative Third Congressional District include Chuck Fleischmann, the Republican incumbent; Meg Gorman, a Democrat; and Thomas M. Rumba and Rick Tyler, both independents.
Senator Randy McNally (R), the incumbent for Tennessee Senate District 5, is unopposed.

Candidates for Tennessee House District 33 covering most of Anderson County are John D. Ragan, the Republican incumbent, and Jim Dodson, a Democrat.
The Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce will sponsor a Meet-and-Greet for candidates and the public on October 18 from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Visitor’s Lobby adjacent to A-111 City Room right before the Candidate Forum. This will be the perfect time for informal discussions with the candidates.
