Local elections matter, and Election Day in the primary is Tuesday, Aug. 20 (early voting is happening through the weekend, and you can download a PDF of Creative Loafing’s 2024 primary ballot picks).

Everyone deserves to form their own opinion, and forums like this one help.

Set to hit the stage for Tampa Tiger Bay are five Republicans hoping to make it out of their primaries in Districts 14 and 15 (including some who think the 2020 election was fraudulent) along with a Democrat and Libertarian who will be on the ballot in November. See the full list of invitees below.

Tampa Tiger Bay is nonpartisan, but members regularly ask pretty spicy questions.

Tickets to Tampa Tiger Bay Club's Hillsborough County Candidate Forum on Friday, Aug. 16. ay Ybor City's Cuban Club are still available to non-members for $35.
