AARP, South Dakota Public Broadcasting and the South Dakota Newspaper Association have joined to host a series of candidate forums to air on SDPB Television and SDPB Radio.
"We want our members, and the general public to be informed voters when they head to the polls on Election Day," says AARP State Director Sarah Jennings. "These forums will address issues important to older South Dakotans, and make it clear where candidates stand on those issues."
