Hello-

Democracy For Memphis wants to invite you to the first of several
candidate forums for the upcoming 2006 elections. On Tuesday, January 24th
Democracy For Memphis and our good friends at Local 1529 of the United Food and
Commercial Workers Union, will host a question and answer forum with
five of the current candidates for United States Representative of District
nine. In attendance will be Lee Harris, Tyson Pratcher, Ron Redwing, Nikki
Tinker*, and Ralph White. We decided to open this meeting up to the public so
that the greater community of Labor and Progressives could become better
informed about this exciting and historic race in local politics. We also want
to know your questions,DFM members please submit your questions to
Brad@democracyformemphis.com. Please label you email Forum Questions.
Any Non-DFM member questions should be sent to Steve Steffens at
sjs1959@earthlink.net.
We also want to add that while we attempted to contact all candidates
in this primary there were some whom we could not obtain contact
information for. We want to make sure EVERY candidate has an opportunity to attend
this event and want to extend an invite to any in this race who we have not
spoken to.
I hope as many of you as possible can attend, this is a great
opportunity for the voters of District Nine to meet and get to know their next
Representative.
