Do you find your voter’s pamphlet to be a bit too impersonal? Want the opportunity to really get to know what's on your ballot, top to bottom? Join us for a free interactive viewing party for the Presidential debate and Governor debate where you can weigh in with your opinions. Stick around to meet local candidates and initiative representatives. Enjoy the beer/wine garden and food vendors while discussing the pros and cons of issues and candidates with fellow citizens. While you decide how to vote, don't just rely on the election material each candidate and initiative has sent you, come and meet them and ask that question that's been on your mind! The event is free but pre-registration is recommended at http://www.seattlecityclub.org/20121016.
