The League of Women Voters of Saratoga County will moderate a “Meet the Candidates” event sponsored by the Saratoga Springs City School District on May 14, 2024 starting at 7 pm. District residents will elect three individuals to the Board of Education for three-year terms. The candidates, in the order that they will appear on the ballot, are Matt Kopans, Connie Woytowich, Joe Sabanos, Amanda Ellithorpe, and Deb Amory.
The Meet the Candidates event will be held in the Saratoga Springs High School Teaching Auditorium. The forum also will be live streamed through YouTube and a recording will be available after the event at the same YouTube link.

We are encouraging the public to submit questions for the candidates to QuestionsLWVSC@gmail.com no later than Friday, May 10. Please put “Saratoga Springs” in the subject line of your email to us so we will know to which event the questions are directed.
Questions will be reviewed by an impartial group of League members based on relevancy to the office and topic/redundancy.
Questions should be clear, concise and appropriate to the office being sought.
Questions must be directed to all the candidates seeking the office, not just one candidate.
Questions should reflect the issues of greatest interest to the entire community and cover a broad range of topics.
Questions must not include or imply personal attacks on any candidate.
