This November’s midterm election is likely one of the most important in recent years, not only nationwide, but particularly here in New Hampshire.

From the abortion issue to ongoing inflation woes and environmental matter, making the right selection on the November ballot is key to our future.

Helping to highlight the issues and to bring local, state and national candidates together, the Greater Nashua Chamber of Commerce is once again hosting it candidate’s series.

The four-part set of forums is sponsored by BAE Systems, Fidelity Investments, Nashua Community College and partner Chamber, Greater Merrimack Souhegan Valley.

The series kicks off on Oct. 6, from 8-9:30 a.m. at Nashua Community College, with state Senate candidates from Districts 11, 12 and 13. Candidates that will be appearing at the event include, Gary Daniels and Shannon Chandley (District 11), Kevin Avard and Melanie Levesque (District 12) and Stephen Scaer and Cindy Rosenwald (District 13). Also highlighted that morning will be Executive Council candidates David Wheeler and Shoshanna Kelly.

On Oct. 12, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Nashua Community College, Republican U.S. Senate candidate Don Bolduc and Democrat U.S. Sen. Maggie Hassan will participate.

The third event in the candidate series will feature the governor’s race, with Republican Gov. Chris Sununu and Democrat Dr. Tom Sherman participating. This event is set for 7:30-9 a.m. on Oct. 18 at Hampshire Hills.

The final event of the series will be at LaBelle Winery in Amherst from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 25 and feature the U.S. House race, with Democrat U.S. Rep. Annie Kuster and Republican candidate Bob Burns attending.

The first session is a candidate meet and greet, while the other three parts of the series are panel format question-and-answer sessions.

Local resident and business leader will hopefully take advantage of this valuable series to meet the candidates and learn their positions on issues that face us all.
