And you know all your representatives? And their disabilities and allergies I assume?

I suppose I would know them if I were organizing an event centered around them.

You’re organizing? Or their campaign booked your venue and you answered their questions correctly - in that the building itself is ADA compliant

I really don't know where folks are coming up with this shit. The venue is the one who applied to host the debate. The clerk didn't do due diligence in actually figuring out the application was appropriate, but you'd also figure the venue would actually try to understand who the hell is coming if they're the ones applying to host it.
