Mapp, Gilbert square off at League forum tonight


Former councilor and Union County freeholder Adrian Mapp will face write-in candidate Brenda Gilbert in tonight's League of Women Voters forum at the Plainfield Public Library.

Both are running for the Ward 3 seat on City Council in November's general election.

Annie McWilliams, candidate for the citywide at-large seat and William Reid, candidate for the Ward 1 seat will also participate, though neither is opposed in the general election.

All the candidates are Democrats.

Deborah Dowe, who was a Republican candidate, withdrew from the race in September.

The Plainfield chapter, under its current president Herb Green, is celebrating its 88th year, and is one of the oldest chapters in the country.

Following longstanding League practice, attendees will be able to submit written questions for the candidates, which will be posed by a League moderator who is not a Plainfield resident.
