With two months until Election Day, Democratic candidates in November’s city election could use an endorsement. The members of the Santa Monica Democratic Club will cast votes next week after getting a closer look at the candidates to be endorsed by the club.

The club’s executive board interviewed Democratic candidates and decided to recommend Gleam Davis and Kevin McKeown for Santa Monica City Council; Emily Bloomfield, Oscar de la Torre, Kelly McMahon Pye and Barry Snell for the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School Board; Jennifer Kennedy, Marilyn Korade Wilson and Zelia Mollia for Rent Control Board; and David Finkel, Nancy Greenstein and Louise Jaffe for Santa Monica College Board. Now club members will meet candidates before making their own decision about the club’s endorsement.

Candidates will present themselves and take questions from the audience, then members of the Santa Monica Democratic Club will vote.

The presentation and vote will take place on Thursday, Sept. 7 at 7 p.m. in St. Anne’s Community Room at 20th and Colorado in Santa Monica. Your future in traffic
