As of December 31, 2015 our local City Councilwoman, Maria del Carmen Arroyo has resigned from her seat and there will be a special election for Arroyo’s replacement on 2/23/16.
Due to the short time from Arroyo's resignation announcement and quick turnaround which will no doubt limit our community's participation as voters, we are coordinating this forum to ensure the community is aware of this special election, and ultimately able to fully participate both in hearing from the candidates and demonstrate that our local residents care by voting in significant numbers.
SIMULTANEOUS TRANSLATION WILL BE PROVIDED IN SPANISH
