Candidates for Collin County, Texas and U.S. Representative seats will meet for a forum Jan. 25 at Collin College.

The free forum will have a series of sessions from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. in Conference Room C on the campus at 2800 E. Spring Creek Parkway, Plano. The event is hosted by the League of Women Voters of Collin County, a nonpartisan group that encourages educated voting.

The audience will have opportunities to submit questions during each session and topics of discussion are not pre-selected, according to the League of Women Voters. A voter's guide with written responses from candidates can be found on the organization's website.

Candidates are listed in alphabetical order within each party (D: Democrat, G: Green Party, I: Independent, L: Libertarian, R: Republican). Those that are unable to attend or have yet to respond to the event are marked with an asterisk (*).
