California Secretary of State Forum

On Thursday, Oct. 9, at 6:30 p.m. on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, KQED’s John Myers will moderate a forum featuring the two candidates running for California Secretary of State.

In one of the most contested statewide races of the year, Republican Pete Peterson and Democrat Alex Padilla are vying for the post of the state’s chief elections official, a platform that will afford one of them enormous power over voting rights and the future of California’s elections.

There is a lot at stake.

California ranks 48th in the nation in election administration and more than six million eligible Californians are not even registered to vote.

YOU can attend in person by signing up here.

Doors open at 6 p.m. If you drive instead of taking mass transit then please make sure you leave plenty of time to find parking!
