A few weeks ago I blogged about exploring public financing for Seattle elections. The next step is two public forums on January 31 and February 13.
On January 31, we’ll hear representatives from Los Angeles, San Francisco and Portland to talk about how public financing works in practice. On February 13, we’ll hear from leading experts about the impacts of public financing.
Please join us; public questions are encouraged. Details are listed below, or click on the flyer.
