The following is an edited release from the South Coast GOP:

The South Coast GOP will host a forum for the 4th Congressional District Republican candidates on Aug. 13 from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the auditorium on Bristol Community College's Attleboro campus.

Sean Bielat, Elizabeth Childs and David Steinhof will answer questions from a panel comprised of members of the local media. The 4th District includes Wrentham and surrounding towns such as Foxborough, Plainville, and Norfolk.

The South Coast GOP is made up of town/city committees from Seekonk, Taunton, Raynham and Rehoboth as well as the Republican Women of Bristol/Norfolk County.

Taunton Republican City Committee Chairman Gene McCaffrey said:

We believe that for the voters to make an educated decision in the voting booth come the primary on Sept. 4, it is our responsibility as Republican Town Committee to have the three candidates ... come before the voters so that they can tell us, if elected, what they are going to do for their constituents while representing them in Washington.

Participants on the panel include Attleboro-Seekonk Patch, The Sun Chronicle , WVBF Radio of Taunton and WSAR Radio of Fall River . Jack Lank, president of the United Regional Chamber of Commerce , will be the moderator.    

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Seating is limited, so you should arrive early. The Attleboro campus is located on 11 Field Road. If you have any questions, contact McCaffrey at 508-824-9722.
