Four candidates will be appearing at the forum: Jeffrey Cassin, Abigail Speltz, Gisela Paula Torgovnick, and WeiWei Huang.

Another local resident, Christian Germa, will be appearing on the ballot, but is not listed as a participant for the forum.

“I stepped back from the race in early September since I couldn’t campaign in October for personal reasons,” Germa recently told Patch. “But because the deadline to rescind my candidacy had already passed, I’m still officially a candidate and my name remains on the ballot.”
