The Day After: Post-Election Highlights with Oakland DFA

Written by: Janet Stromberg on Jun 1, 2006 5:46 PM EDT

Can't wait to discuss the June 6th primary results?

There's no better place than the Oakland DFA Meetup...

"THE DAY AFTER"

Come to the Rockridge Library at 7 pm on JUNE 7th and discuss what happened, why it happened, and what our collective response should be as a community.

EVERYONE -- all progressives across the East Bay -- are welcome!

At this DFA Meetup, we'll discuss the big news from the previous day:

* CA-11 (Pombo): Did Jerry McNerney's grassroots movement defeat Steve Filson's money machine?

* CA-50 (Cunningham): Did upstart Francine Busby knock off a Republican in a deep red district?!?

* Governor: Who won the TV ad war and the primary -- Angelides or Westly? And can either of them defeat Schwarzenegger?

* Oakland Mayoral: De La Fuente, Dellums, or Nadel -- will it go to a runoff?

* Sec of State: Did Debra Bowen, our Election Integrity champion, win? And can she beat McPherson in November?

* AD 16: Caplane, Russo, or Swanson?

* Lt. Governor: Garamendi, Speier, or Figueroa?

* District 2 City Council: How did Aimee Allison do vs. Pat Kernighan?

* Props 81 and 82?

* And, the all-important X factor: those touch-screen voting machines. What happened and what does it mean for Election Integrity advocates?
