The League of Women Voters is sponsoring a forum for the run-off candidates for the At-Large Oakland City Council Seat at 7p Friday evening, Oct. 3 at City Hall Hearing Room 1.  Come hear the candidates talk about their vision for development of Oakland, improving opportunities for Oakland's youth, reducing crime, etc and show your support for Community Choice.

The candidates are Rebecca Kaplan and Kerry Hammil. Neither candidate has yet indicated whether they support Community Choice as a way to bring more renewable energy and green jobs to Oakland and reduce GHG emissions.

With your help, we hope to show the candidates that Community Choice is a hot issue in Oakland and get them to take a stand for Community Choice. We have worked behind the scenes with the host so that there will be a question on renewable energy and Community Choice.  There will also be media coverage. We want to show visible support for Community Choice at the forum, and will hand out "I support Community Choice" stickers and flyers explaining the program.

Please let us know if you are able to attend and/or help "sticker" people as they head into the forum.  RSVP to janlcg (at) gmail.
