The following came to me via Facebook:
The Shady Acres Civic Club is hosting a Candidate Forum for District H. We would like to have an opportunity for community members to meet and hear candidates\’ vision for our neighborhood. We will also have specific questions that we will ask candidates to address as well an opportunity for them to give us an overview of their position. The Shady Acres Civic Club is inviting the Greater Heights and the press.
February 17 from 7 to 8 pm
at the SPJST Lodge Annex 1435 Beall Street
(At W. 15th Street )Sam Jow
SACC Web/Secretary
Details and a map can be found here. Five candidates have confirmed their attendance as of this writing: Gonzalo Camacho, Karen Derr, Ed Gonzalez, Hugo Mojica, and Maverick Welsh. I’m going to try to be there as well.
On a side note, according to an email I received yesterday, the Harris County Tejano Democrats will have a meeting tomorrow night at which an endorsement for the District H special election will be discussed. Far as I know, that would be the first such endorsement for this race. I’ll pass along their decision when I hear of it.
