Montgomery County Executive Candidates’ Forum

The Greater Olney Civic Association is hosting a Montgomery County Executive Candidates’ Forum on Sunday, May 17, 2026 at 6:00 PM at the Olney Theater (2001 Olney Sandy Spring Road, Olney, MD 20832).
The forum features three Democratic candidates for Montgomery County Executive: Andrew Friedson, Evan Glass, and Will Jawando.

This forum gives Olney residents a chance to hear directly from each candidate ahead of the Democratic Primary, with questions covering county priorities, local concerns, and each candidate’s vision for Montgomery County.

Attending the forum:
Residents of the Greater Olney community are cordially invited to attend. The event will be moderated by Michelle Graham and Barbara Falcigno. To ensure every candidate is heard and every attendee leaves informed, we ask all guests to engage respectfully throughout the evening.


Candidate participation requirements:
Candidates for the GOCA-sponsored Montgomery County Executive Democratic Primary Forum were required to file as a Democrat by February 24, 2026, maintain an active campaign website, and raise at least $80,000 from sources outside themselves or immediate family.
