Listen for the “pop, pop, pop.”
The Islander will open its Popcorn and Politics candidate forum and election season celebration at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 12, outside the newspaper office.
The newspaper invited local candidates for elected office, as well as those campaigning for county commission. The mic also will be offered to any candidates for higher office — from the legislature to the top of the party tickets.
The two-hour event will feature politics, campaigning, live music by Trevor Bystrom, a “mask” poll for president and, of course, popcorn. Everyone is welcome.
The Islander office is in the Anna Maria Island Centre shopping plaza at 3218 E. Bay Drive, Holmes Beach.
For more information, call the newspaper at 941-778-1908.
