The Greeley Weld County League of Women Voters hosted a candidate forum on September 30, 2025, in partnership with the city of Greeley. The event aimed to inform voters ahead of the upcoming election on November 4, 2025. Barbara Winery served as the moderator, supported by a team of league members responsible for timing, greeting attendees, and screening audience questions.
The forum was structured to ensure a fair and orderly discussion among candidates. It was emphasized that the event was not a debate; candidates were prohibited from making rebuttals or receiving applause from the audience. Each candidate was allotted one and a half minutes for opening statements and one minute for closing remarks, with strict adherence to time limits enforced by the moderator.
The evening began with the at-large city council candidates. Antoine Molina Haro was the first to speak, outlining his platform focused on making Greeley more affordable, supporting local businesses, and promoting sustainable city growth. He expressed a desire to prevent the city from expanding in undesirable directions.
Following Molina Haro, Ryan Roth introduced himself and thanked the League of Women Voters and community members for their participation. The forum continued with candidates presenting their views and answering questions, with a focus on key issues affecting Greeley.
The event concluded with a reminder of the importance of voter participation and informed decision-making in the upcoming election. The forum served as a vital platform for candidates to communicate their visions and for voters to engage with the electoral process.
