There are 25 candidates running for Oakland City Council in five races — Districts 1, 3, 5, 7 and at large. Sixteen candidates responded to the Make Oakland Better Now! questionnaire. Those responses are now available for review here at the MOBN! web site.
Later this week, the MOBN! board will consider whether to endorse in each of these races and who to endorse. Here’s your chance to have an impact on the endorsement process. If you think any of the candidates in any of these races deserves an endorsement from MOBN!, comment below, comment on our facebook page, or send an e-mail to oaklanders@makeoaklandbetternow.org. Tell us no later than Friday, September 28, 5:00 p.m. which candidates you think should be endorsed and why. The board will review and consider all input before making final endorsement decisions.
