Thurston Community Media (TCMedia) provides a variety of programs on local election coverage for our community. Stay informed about candidates and the results of local races by watching programs such as The League of Women Voters Candidate Forums, Video Voter’s Guide, and Election Night 2019.
The League of Women Voters of Thurston County (LWV) teamed up with TCMedia to record 11 forums with candidates for Port Commissioner, Olympia city council, Tumwater city council and Lacey city council. The LWV forums are on air now on TCMedia channel 77, on TCMedia’s youtube channel, and Video On-Demand (VOD) service. Online viewers can see the The LWV forums YouTube playlist.
The Video Voter’s Guide features 3-minute messages from current candidates in local races. The completed compilation of candidate messages will air on TCMedia channel 77 in the coming weeks. Viewers can catch them now on TCMedia’s YouTube page and VOD. The Video Voter’s Guide has been produced for the community benefit for more than 20 years. You can find The Video Voter’s Guide playlist on our YouTube channel.
