The Johnson City Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the League of Women Voters of Northeast Tennessee, invites the community to Meet the Candidates on Tuesday, September 29, from 4:00–6:00 p.m. at the Centre Langston Centre.
This isn’t a traditional candidate forum or debate. Instead, we’re creating a casual, approachable way to meet the people running for Johnson City Commission and Johnson City Board of Education ahead of early voting.
Candidates will be stationed at tables throughout the room, and guests can move around at their own pace to introduce themselves and have one-on-one conversations. This is a drop-in style format that allows you to ask the questions that matter most to you.
All candidates for Johnson City Commission and Board of Education have been invited to participate, with the majority of candidates expected to attend. Light snacks will be available throughout the evening.
👉This event is free and open to the community.👈
Meet the Candidates is supported by the Young Professionals of Johnson City, Ballad Health, Eastman Credit Union, and General Shale.
Tuesday, September 29, 2026, 4:00 PM thru 06:00 PM
