Schneider, Bennett to appear at candidate forum in Waukegan

The candidates for Illinois' 10th Congressional District seat will face off in a public forum at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 22, at Waukegan High School's Brookside Campus, 2325 Brookside Ave.

Democratic U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider of Deerfield is being challenged by Republican Doug Bennett, also a Deerfield resident, in the Nov. 6 election. Students in an AP World Government class will moderate the forum and ask questions.

The 10th District includes portions of Cook and Lake counties, stretching from the North Shore into the Northwest suburbs.
