District 8 Supervisor Forum - Last one!!!




Thursday night while most people were watching the Giants game , some of us attended the last District 8 debate/forum before the election on November 2, 2010.  The Forum was held at the San Francisco LGBT Community Center on Market Street.  Forum was sponsored by the San Francisco LGBT Community Center, The Bay Citizen, Bay Area Lawyers for Individual Freedom and the Golden Gate Business Association.  The meeting was moderated by KQED  Scott Shafer, who is the host and correspondent of the statewide California Report.

 Scott Wiener, Rebecca Prozan, Rafael Mandelman and Bill Hemenger have been campaigning for over a year. District 8 should feel lucky to have such dedicated individuals, who are so knowledgeable about their district running for supervisor.

There were no surprises (except Bill Hemenger could not make the event) - just good, smart answers.
