Meet the Candidates: Small-Group Sessions
February 21 @ 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm
WHEN: Saturday, Feb. 21 • 2:30 PM
WHERE: North Carolina Cooperative Extension | Cleveland County Center 130 S Post Rd, Shelby, NC
Join us for an afternoon of meaningful, small‑group conversations with your local 2026 candidates. Instead of long speeches, you’ll have the chance to talk directly with candidates as they rotate from group to group. Each candidate will spend one minute introducing themselves, followed by a timed Q&A session with your group before moving on to the next group.
This format gives voters the opportunity to ask real questions, hear real answers, and connect with candidates in a more personal, accessible way than traditional campaign events.
Everyone is welcome. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and your voice.

- US Congressional District 14: Brent Caldwell, Ahmid Kargbo, LaKesha Womach
- NC Senate District 44: Rod Powell
- NC House District 110: Mary Silver
- NC House District 111: Jerry Blake
