There are over 55 candidates running in the Local Elections across the five Municipal Districts of Co Wicklow this year. These candidates are seeking positions that could make a real difference in our lives and to the communities in which we live.
Our Meet the Candidate events will allow member groups to find out about the candidates running for election in their Municipal District.

These events will run online using the Zoom webinar platform. This platform will ensure that the events will run in an efficient, fair, and respectful manner for all.
As time will be limited for each session questions will be grouped, and more common themes/questions will be prioritised.
Questions submitted by our member groups will be sent to candidates ahead of the meeting where possible. Members will also be permitted to submit questions (through the Zoom webinar Q&A function) on the night, and should time be available we will put them to candidates.
We are asking that questions be submitted 6 days in advance of the date for the session (eg. for Arklow MD session which will be held on the 7th May questions should be submitted by 5pm on the 1st May).
Wicklow PPN values diversity and operates on the principles of respect, equality, and inclusion. By participating in this event, you are agreeing to abide by this ethos.
