The Ward 4 Democrats are hosting a Ward 4 councilmember forum tonight at Lamond Recreation Center (20 Tuckerman Street NE). Doors open at 6:00 pm. The forum will begin at 6:30 pm.

A straw poll will also take place during the forum. From 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, anyone registered to vote in ward 4 may cast a vote for the preferred candidate. The poll will be administered by the DC Democratic State Committee (DCDSC).

Misgivings about the straw poll have been reported, so we do not know how many of the candidates will actually appear at the forum. As far as we know, the forum and straw poll will still be taking place tonight.
