Primary 2007 Candidate Forums
2007 is a gubernatorial election year in Kentucky, with contested
primaries in both the Republican and Democratic parties. In addition,
voters will be choosing five other constitutional officers in
November: secretary of state, attorney general, commissioner of
agriculture, treasurer, and auditor of public accounts.
KET has invited all candidates on the ballot in contested primary
races for statewide offices to participate in live televised forums to
be broadcast from our Lexington studio. Each forum will air live on
KET1, with a web simulcast, and will be repeated on our overnight
schedule and archived online. Three forums are scheduled in each
gubernatorial primary: two each for governor and one each for
lieutenant governor.
On Primary Election Day, May 22, join us for a full evening of live
returns and analysis on Primary 2007: The Vote, beginning at 7:00/6:00
pm CT on KET1.
