Come hear your candidates speak about issues and answer your questions! The Albany Democratic Club is hosting a Candidates Forum for the race for California Assembly District 15. This district includes all of Albany, as well as other cities in Contra Costa and Alameda County from Emeryville to Hercules.
Tony Thurmond is vacating this seat as he is running for State Superintendent of Public Instruction. All nine candidates have agreed to participate in the forum at the Little Theater of the Albany High School, 603 Key Route Blvd. from 7 to 9:30 on Monday, January 29.
Please submit questions in advance to nicky@mindspring.com. We'll try to get to as many questions we can, and we'll take some audience questions that evening, as well.
Hope to see you there!
Note — this is a district that is only ~6% registered Republicans, so because of California’s jungle primary in June, 2 of these people will be going to the November ballot for the runoff.
Come choose your candidate!
