Folks get a chance to hear some Benton County candidates square off at an open forum Saturday.
The event, which was standing room only, was hosted by the Benton County Tea Party.
Candidates running for Congress, the Senate and County Judge and much more took voter questions all afternoon.
"There were a lot of good questions asked today about healthcare, retirement, medicare, social security and if you've got a question I would encourage you to attend one of these forums and ask the hard question of the people running for office," said voter Larry Delashmit.
More than forty candidates attended the open forum.
