								The 
								four mayoral candidates for the Republican 
								Primary in Lincoln take their seats for a 
								candidate forum at Lincoln College on Monday 
								evening. The forum included a large number of 
								questions submitted by members of the community. 
								Each candidate was afforded an equal amount of 
								time to answer the questions, with the hopes of 
								giving the public a better understanding of how 
								each one would perform as the mayor of the city 
								for the next four years. The candidates from the 
								left are incumbent Mayor by appointment - Marty 
								Neitzel, Wanda Lee Rohlfs, Seth Goodman and 
								Kevin Bateman. The event was held by the 
								Lincoln/Logan County Chamber of Commerce in 
								partnership with Lincoln College.
