Local candidates make their points

Candidates share their views on community issues during the local election forum.

A Candidates Forum was held at the Community Action Partnership of Madera County (CAPMC).

Tuesday’s forum included four people running for Madera Mayor — incumbent Santos Garcia, Cece Gallegos, Wayne Padilla and Lucy Salazar — and two each for City Council Districts 4 and 6.

The event was hosted by the Madera Chamber of Commerce, Madera Coalition for Community Justice, The Madera Tribune, and the Madera Branch of the NAACP.
