Our next Club meeting will be Thursday, January 28th, 2016 and we've got a very big agenda for the evening. But boy, a lot can happen in a week. We were saddened by the withdraw of Joe LaCava from the District 1 Council race. We also got a new candidate for City Attorney who announced his intention last week.

We will be opening nominations for Club officers (see the offices up for election below). Nominations will be at the January  28th meeting with elections at the February meeting - and the elected officers will begin their terms in March. We will also be considering a few technical By-laws changes to meet the County Party's requirements.

As of today, Barbara Bry is the only candidate for San Diego City Council, District 1. We've seen how fast a race can change though so we look forward to hearing from Barbara and asking her questions before we consider an endorsement. Barbara is the first candidate to have completed and submitted our Candidate Questionnaire - which is required before we can endorse.

We have also sent the Questionnaire to three of the candidates for San Diego City Attorney Gil Cabrera , Rafael Castellanos and Mara Elliott  Following Club procedure, the completed Questionnaires will be made available for study at the meeting but will not be distributed to members, candidates or guests before, or after the meeting. We've reached out to Bryan Pease who announced his intention to seek the City Attorney post last week but have not yet heard from him. We'll keep you posted.
