Reading Mayoral Candidates Participate in Bilingual Forum

A first of its kind bilingual candidate conversation, Una Voz, Un Voto/One Voice, One Vote, was held Tuesday at the Miller Center for the Arts, hosting the Mayoral candidates of Reading.

The forums focused on issues challenging both youth and Spanish speaking voters in a style that is more inclusive. The questions asked during the forum were presented in both English and Spanish, with the candidate responses in English, and professional translation services for those who requested it.
