BALLOT INITIATIVES FOR NOVEMBER: LOCAL AND STATE

Rob,

  I think it would be a good idea to invite the candidates to come and
speak to us even if we have no expectation of recommending votes for
any of them. It's an opportunity for us to learn more about what
they're up to, and to share our issues and concerns with them. Also,
it's no impossible that some of the challengers might actually turn
out to be halfway decent -- stranger things have happened. I'm not
sure who's running against Leno, Ammiano, Ma, etc. (I am glad that
Leno beat out Migden in the primary -- my impression is that he's
been substantially better than her on the issues, to say nothing of
personal ethics!)

  Just publishing the LPC ExCom's recommendations is fine by me if no
one objects.

Love & Liberty,
