District Elections are a game changer and will signal a dramatic culture shift
> Neighborhoods will have more of a voice in city government
> District Elections build and encourage more civic engagement because people feel they have more of a voice
> Shifts weight away from top-down decision-making
> Much lower campaign costs means more people run
And, 17,000 Latinos—30% of the population—will have an excellent chance to get a voice on the city council for the first time. EVER.
SHOW UP AT THE HEARINGS ON DISTRICT ELECTIONS AND URGE 5 DISTRICTS FOR 2018
