Help the public choose the best candidates: Brit Sojka seeks Muni League Investigators
The Municipal League is seeking citizens who can help rate political candidates and issues in the next election cycle. The Municipal League has been helping evaluate candidates for a century, and their evaluations are widely broadcast. By joining this effort, you can have a positive and direct effect on the public’s selection of their public servants.
While the Renton Event was held on Thursday…I was in Oklahoma City so I missed posting it :-(… there are still great opportunities to go to other nearby get-togethers or email the Municipal League that you are interested.
