2007 & 2008 Candidate Forum, 6pm, Home Plate Bar & Grill
There are currently NO Democratic judges in the Harris Co. courthouse, but we intend to change this FAST!! There are 3 classifications of judges: civil, criminal, and family court. Democratic judges are especially important and sensitive to family courts because of their positions on women/family issues, child custody, and minority issues.
Candidates running in Fall municipal elections, as well as judicial candidates in the March ‘08 Party Primaries, will be attending to meet you and hear your concerns. There are over 40 judicial candidates and numerous council candidates, so the meeting could be lengthy.
Judicial candidates are required to obtain signatures of voters on petitions to prove they are worthy of placement on the ballot. Some candidates are contested, so there will be competition on the Democratic ballot for the first time in years!!
Signing for any of these candidates precludes a voter from:
1) from voting in the Republican primary in March ‘08,
2) from signing the petition of a competitor in the same judicial race.
Lists of all candidates will be available at the event.
