Judicial candidates to attend forum
Eight candidates vying for two seats as Washington County Common Pleas Court judges will attend a public forum later this month to discuss their qualifications.
The forum will be at 7 p.m. April 30 at the DoubleTree hotel on Racetrack Road in North Strabane Township.
Candidates Alan Benyak, Blane Black, Valarie Costanzo, Thomas Fallert, Charles Kurowski, Michael Lucas, Peter Marcoline III and Lane Turturice have announced they plan to attend the session sponsored by the Washington County Bar Association and League of Women Voters of Washington County.
The candidates plan to discuss a variety of issues, but will not answer questions from the audience. However, attendees will be able to talk to the candidates following the forum. The event is free to the public.
