(Aaron T. Evans)

DUBOIS – On Wednesday evening two candidates for governor of Pennsylvania and one fill-in fielded questions at a forum held at Hiller Auditorium.

The Greater DuBois Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development sponsored the event. Jay Philippone, owner of Priority Communications, facilitated the forum. Topics ranged from tolling Interstate 80 to the recent health care bill.

Pictured, left to right, are state Rep. Sam Rohrer(R-Berks County), Pennsylvania Auditor General Jack Wagner (D), and filling in Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett (R), Derek Walker of Bigler. Corbett was unable to attend due to a duty in his role as attorney general.

While few candidates attended, those who did garnered had an attentive audience.
