The 2018 GOP Lieutenant Governor candidates will speak at a forum in Vestavia Hills, Alabama on Saturday morning.

The Mid-Alabama Republican Club will be hosting the forum at the Vestavia Hills Public Library.

“Join us Saturday, March 10th as we host all three of the GOP candidates for Lt. Governor:  State Senator Rusty Glover, Public Service Commission President Twinkle Andress Cavanaugh, and State Representative Will Ainsworth,” the MARC said in a statement.

Former State Rep. Paul DeMarco, R-Homewood, is the current President of MARC.

“They’ll each have the opportunity to share what their vision is for our great state and why they deserve to be our party’s nominee.  This is such an important position, as we’ve all seen during the past year, so we hope you’ll come out and hear what they have to say!” MARC announced in a statement.

At this time last year, Robert Bentley was the governor of Alabama. In April, he resigned to avoid a likely impeachment and possible prosecution.  His resignation elevated Lt. Gov. Kay Ivey to the governor’s mansion.  The office of Lt. Gov. presently is vacant.
