They were heavily involved in the campaign against the Q Deal and they organized Frank's Fat Cat Festival in Gates Mills to rally against big corporate money in local elections. CCPC's Political Director Steve Holecko said that the organization would endorse a candidate for Governor via a vote by its membership in early 2018.Here's the forum schedule:Gubernatorial Candidate ForumMonday, November 20, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., Newburgh Heights Village Hall,Gubernatorial Candidate ForumThursday, November 30, 6:30 - 7:30 p.m., Newburgh Heights Village Hall,Gubernatorial Candidate ForumMonday, December 11, 6 - 8 p.m., Newburgh Heights Village Hall,(Green Party) Gubernatorial Candidate ForumThursday, December 14, 6 - 8 p.m., CCPC OfficeGubernatorial Candidate ForumTuesday, December 19, 6 - 8 p.m., Newburgh Heights Village Hall,
