“In an effort to be more inclusive this year, the Chamber and Davidson Local made the decision to have multiple moderators that are more representative of the registered voters in the City of Lexington and the candidates that are running for elected office.,” said President of The Lexington Chamber Joe Wallace. “Our hope is that this will spur greater interest in the election process and therefore generate a higher voter turnout.”
