Re: [SanFranciscoVolunteersforObama] WHAT’S UP WITH THIS MAY 19TH SPECIAL ELECTION?

[Ann Larie Valentine]

Hi Local Lefties!

 

I thought you might be interested in attending this meeting on April 1 of SF for Democracy on the Special Statewide Election on May 19th. 

 

I'm thinking it's likely this will be an election with low turnout so it's important for those of us who are plugged in to educate ourselves so that we can educate others!

 

Looking forward to digging in soon with some upcoming Local Lefty activity.  Plans are in the works - stay tuned!

The April program of San Francisco for Democracy tackles the important subject of budget crises - both City (San Francisco) and State. These are unprecedented times for both.
First, we'll hear from SF Supervisor John Avalos and Nani Coloretti (the Mayor's Budget Director) about the current state of the SF budget, what problems have sent it out of whack, and possible repairs to the budget. Bring your questions because you have a stake in the outcome.

Our second panel explores the May 19 statewide special election and will feature Rick Wathen and Eric Heins of the California Teaches Association (CTA) and a speaker from SEIU. What are the 9 propositions on the ballot and how should we vote? Did Governor Schwarzenegger craft Props #1A and #1B to divide the coalition of unions that defeated his previous special election challenge? How should we vote? For those of you who are just learning about this May 19th Special Election, this panel will be very informative.
