Asian American and Pacific Islander Community Candidate Forum

Last week an Asian American and Pacific Islander community candidate forum took place at the Asian Pacific Development Center in Aurora.  US Congressional District 6 candidates were invited.  Andrew Romanoff, who is seeking to unseat incumbent Mike Coffman was the only of the two to appear.  He sat next to an empty chair and said that he embraced the opportunity to have the time to himself.

It was sponsored by the Japanese American citizens league, the Asian Pacific Development Center, Asian Roundtable of Colorado, the Asian Chamber of Commerce, the Asian American Journalists Association, Asian Avenue Magazine, Colorado Asian Culture and Education Network, and the Asian Pacific Islander Women’s Forum.
