Candidate Forum

Candidate forum for those running for Superior Court Judge in Los Angeles County or for County Central Committee in the North San Fernando Valley and Santa Clarita.

Also guest speaker Jeff Daar will discuss the two competing propositions the ballot. Propositions 98 and 99 will both affect eminent domain, but they are very different.

Sponsored by the Democratic Neighbors of the 38th Assembly District, The Democratic Club of the Santa Clarita Valley, the Democratic Alliance for Action, and the North (San Fernando) Valley Democratic Club.

A tidal wave of new Democratic voters are registered for the first time this year. The 2008 presidential contest between Senator Barack Obama (D-Illinois), Senator Hillary Clinton (D-New York), John McCain (R-Arizona) and failed Republican policies may be the cause. But all politics are local, so our local democratic clubs feel it is important that new voters and seasoned politicos alike are given additional assistance in deciding who will sit as our Superior Court Judges and what their votes mean when they cast their ballots for or against Propositions 98 and 99, both dealing with the hot button eminent domain issue to greatly different effect.

The doors will open at 6:00PM for socializing and for those who care to dine. This is a free event. The meeting is open to the general public and those of all political stripes are welcome. Students seeking government credits and internships are asked to contact Joyce Evans and Calli Sajnani on arrival for instructions.

There will be a question and answer period following each part of the presentations.
