🚨 **The Great Debate Brought People Together Like Never Before!** 🚨
On Wednesday, we didn’t just kick off the debate season—we brought people together. The audience was diverse, with some reconnecting after years apart, while others forged new relationships right in the room. The energy was undeniable as we elevated voices and tackled the issues that matter most to our community.
To our 19k viewers, we sincerely apologize for the technical difficulties during the livestream as the system kept crashing. But don't worry—we're airing the debate again **tonight at 6 PM** on **YouTube (Oregon Legacy)** and **Facebook (Elemento Latino)**. Thank you for your patience, and we can’t wait for you to experience it uninterrupted!
A huge thank you to our board members, partners, volunteers, and the incredible candidates who made this event possible. Together, we created something truly special!
