This is an exciting week for ChamberWest as we are hosting a Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Forum on Wednesday, June 10th from 11:45 – 1:00 pm. As many of you know, this Gubernatorial Primary is very important as many believe the successful candidate will go on to be elected as Governor is November. Ballots will be mailed sometime between June 9th and June 23rd with the Primary Election on Tuesday June 30th. If you haven’t already, please mark your calendar, plan to join us, and help us spread the word for the upcoming Westside Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Forum.
