Former Assemblyman Joe Canciamilla (11th District) and Assemblyman Mark DeSaulnier (11th District), two of the declared candidates for the the Democrat Party nomination for election to the District 7 Senate seat now held by Sen. Tom Torlakson, will appear in a debate on October 19 sponsored by The Lamorinda Democratic Club. Because voter registration in the district comprising most of Contra Costa County is drawn to heavily favor Democrats, the winner of the June 2008 Primary will likely win the seat in the November general election.
The debate will take place at the Orinda Community Church, 10 Irwin Way, and starts at 8:00 p.m. after a half-hour business meeting of the Club. Admission is $5; bring a dessert to share. For more information call 925-210-7337 or visit www.lamorindademoclub.com for more information.
