2008 Candidate Forums: 3rd Congressional District

Humphrey Forum

Hubert H. Humphrey Center

301 19th Ave S., Minneapolis

The Center for the Study of Politics and Governance is hosting a series of public forums with the major party candidates for Minnesota's 3rd Congressional District to foster informed and substantive discussion of important matters of public policy. The forums create an opportunity for the candidates to rise above the talking points and fractious back-and-forth of the campaign to address the important policy challenges facing Minnesota and the country. It also creates a forum for students and citizens to listen and raise questions with the candidates. The events are free and open to the public.
