Special to Iredell Free News

The Greater Statesville Chamber of Commerce has released a Meet the Candidates video series featuring interviews with local candidates for the Iredell County Board of Commissioners, Iredell-Statesville Board of Education, N.C. Senate and N.C. House of Representatives.

“In normal years there would be public forums and opportunities to hear the candidates speak in person. Because that wasn’t possible, we wanted the Statesville community to get to know the candidates,” shared Business Advocacy Council Chair Tracey Gibson. “We hope everyone will take a few minutes to use this resource to get to know the candidates before casting their vote. The conversation included topics pertinent to business and industry such as the funding of community colleges and local economic development.”

The videos can be found on the Chamber’s website at https://www.statesvillechamber.org/advocacy.

Election Day is November 3.

One-stop, in-person voting is October 15-October 31. In the early voting period, voters may cast ballots at six early voting locations in Iredell County.
