Kenton County voters will get a chance to meet the people asking for their votes this fall at a free, nonpartisan forum at the Erlanger Branch Library.

LINK nky, the Covington-based news organization, is hosting a Candidate Meet & Greet Series across Northern Kentucky's three counties this October. The Kenton County event is Thursday, October 1, from 5 to 7 p.m. in the Bronte Room at the Erlanger Branch Library, 401 Kenton Lands Rd., Erlanger.

No ticket is required. The events are open to all voters.

Across Northern Kentucky, 289 candidates are on the November 2026 ballot for local, county, state and federal offices, according to the event's registration page on Bold Type Tickets. The series gives attendees a chance to speak directly with candidates and ask questions before Election Day.

The remaining two events cover Campbell County on Wednesday, October 7, at the Newport Branch Library, and Boone County on Thursday, October 8, at the Burlington Branch Library. All three run from 5 to 7 p.m.

LINK nky describes the series as a way for voters to learn about candidates beyond yard signs and campaign mailers.

RSVP is available at btt.boldtypetickets.com/events/185714680/link-nky-candidate-meet-greet-series. Free parking is available at the Erlanger Branch Library.
