[Sosfbay-discuss] Election Forum September 25th

[WB4D23 at aol.com]

Below is a copy of the material I gave to Jim Doyle last night re the  
September 25th program at the United Way building.  Several people said  they would 
attend.  Jim Doyle has the volunteers list.  Someone needs  to take on the 
assignment of contacting Mr. Fang and finding out details  about tabling. .

My name is Jerry Fang, and I'm contacting  you on behalf of Asian
Americans for Community Involvement, a non-profit  community organization
in the Silicon Valley.

On  September 25th, we are organizing a nonpartisan election forum event
where  voters can come and learn about the pertinent issues that are
facing  Californians on the November ballot.  We invite your campaign  to
provide resources and materials for tabling and would certainly  welcome
a representative to table the event.  We will have campaign  resource
information available to all attendees. In addition, we will  be
discussing a select number of propositions and local measures.   This is
a nonpartisan event and as 501c3s, we cannot endorse  candidates,
however, we are using this as an educational event to  provide
information on all propositions and candidates to the  community.

The event is slated to begin at 6:30 and will  include a couple rounds of
discussion as well as a general overview of  selected propositions.
Materials and voter registration booths will also be  provided. =20

The event will be held on Thursday, September  25, 2008, 6:30pm at the

Building, located at 1922 The Alameda  Suite 208, San Jose, CA 95126.

I've CC-ed the Director of  Community Programs and Advocacy, Anne Im.
Feel free to contact either of us  if you have any questions or would
like more information.  My phone  number is (408) 975-2730x145.  If I am
