The nine candidates will be given a chance to present their case via two forums which will be live streamed on Monday and Tuesday nights.
The Illawarra Mercury has partnered with Relativity to telecast the forums from 7pm both nights via the Mercury’s Facebook page and on the Mercury website.

The candidates will be split into two groups to give ample time for each candidate to have their say in the forums hosted by the Mercury editor Julian O’Brien.
The forums will cover a range of topics to give people a chance to see who they wish to vote for when the voting booths open on Saturday, September 9.
