Have you registered to vote? In this episode, we discuss how the governance structure of the US reflects core democratic values. We also invited Tiff Lee, Outreach Division Manager at San Francisco Department of Elections, to share some important information about voting. Furthermore, there is an overwhelming number of state and local propositions on the ballot this November. To help you make an informed decision, our hosts explain 8 local ballot measures, including CAA’s stance on these propositions. In addition, we summarize key takeaways from the District Attorney and Board of Education candidate forums hosted by CAA. As a non-partisan, independent organization, CAA does not comment or endorse candidates for public and political office at any level. Lastly, make sure you do not miss the deadline to register to vote before October 24 and have your say in the upcoming elections!
