Candidates for Northampton County Executive on Lehigh Valley Discourse

On this week’s program, WDIY will present a unique approach to the age-old candidates’ debate.  Host Alan Jennings will present the Democratic candidates for Northampton County Executive.  The format will dispense with the rigid structure common to candidate debates in favor of a no-rules, conversational approach.  John Callahan, Lamont McClure and Glenn Reibman will have a wide-ranging discussion of the issues, covering the economy, fiscal austerity, especially in an era when state and federal assistance are diminishing, open space preservation, their approach to governing, and how the county might encourage modernizing how municipalities within the county relate to each other and the county.
