Every election year, WMCT-TV offers up an hour of studio time so each candidate for public office can record an announcement of up to 10 minutes to play on the channel.  For the last two weeks the candidates have been taping these announcements and the last day to tape them was Saturday.

Now the crew of WMCT-TV will be putting them together by order of the seat being sought.  Check back here for the start of play times which we expect to be next Monday the 9th.

WMCT-TV announced this afternoon that next week, three more play times will be added to the schedule for the Mayoral Primary forum that was taped at the WMCT Studios on Thursday night.  The following play times for next week will be:

Tuesday @ 5pm
Thursday @1pm
Saturday @ 7pm

After the multiple plays the forum is getting this week, these latest hours will be the set times until the Primary Election on October 4th.

The Mayoral Primary Forum was taped last night in the WMCT studios.  It aired at 7:30pm and again at 11pm.  It will run again four times during the weekend.  More playtimes will be added so it can be viewed again several more times before the Primary Election on October 4th.

WMCT wants to thank Arthur Vigeant, Matthew Jones and James Mosso for participating in the Forum, as well as a special thanks to moderator Suzanne Leeber of the Chamber of Commerce.
