With 70% of the offices to be decided in the Aug. 20 primary election, the Flagler Tiger Bay Club will host the 2024 Candidate Meet and Greet on Thursday, June 27, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Palm Coast Community Center.
The event will immediately precede the first presidential debate of 2024, scheduled for 9 p.m.
The public is invited to meet qualified local, state and federal candidates, who will be on hand to answer questions and provide details about their campaigns and platforms.
About three-quarters of the candidates so far have confirmed their participation in the Meet and Greet, a Flagler Tiger Bay Club spokesperson said.
Flagler County Supervisor of Elections Kaiti Lenhart will conduct a straw poll from 6-8 p.m. The results will be announced immediately after the poll closes. The results will also be posted on the Flagler County Supervisor of Election’s website.
There will be a media room where candidates and voters can interact directly, according to a Flagler Tiger Bay Club press release. Flagler Broadcasting will broadcast the event on WNZF News Radio starting at 6 p.m. Candidates and voters are invited to stop by the WNZF booth for a live, on-air political discussion.
"As a nonpartisan organization, Flagler Tiger Bay Club is excited to host this important event for both voters and community stakeholders,” said Jay Scherr, Flagler Tiger Bay Club's president. “This will be an excellent opportunity to meet, engage with and learn about the candidates who want to govern and shape the future of our local communities.”
