MA-05 Health Care Forum Reminder

Don't forget -- tomorrow, June 2nd, is the Health Care Forum for the Massachusetts Fifth district Congressional candidates in Hudson. The forum will be moderated by Watertown's own Dolores Mitchell, the executive director of the state's Group Insurance Commission. It's sponsored by the Metrowest Dems and by BlogLeft, the mysterious cabal of Massachusetts-based progressive bloggers. If you have any health-care specific questions for the candidates, feel free to pose them here. Over at Blue Mass Group, Charley has posted his own.


The debate will be from 10 AM to Noon at the Hudson Portuguese Club 13 Port Street in Hudson. All of the Democrats in the race except for Rep. Jim Miceli have confirmed their attendance. The debate which will also be broadcast on Hudson's Cable Access, and we're trying to make sure it's streamed on the web, or at least available for viewing after-the-fact. I'll be there and, if I can manage, I'll be live-blogging.

Also, I got a message from the Mass. Democratic party announcing another MA-05 candidates forum, this one sponsored by the Massachusetts AFL-CIO. It will be on Monday, June 4th at the Little Theatre at Lowell High School, 50 Father Morrissette Blvd., Lowell at 7 p.m (doors open at 6:30). All five democratic nominees are expected to attend.
