Dublin

 

The City of Dublin, California, is having contested races for Mayor, City Council and School Board.  I’ve sent out questionnaires to candidates for office in most of these races, which I’ll publish here as I receive them (names in bold link to returned questionnaires).  I have not bothered with the race for Mayor, however, as the incumbent is being challenged by a perennial candidate.

In the City Council race, three candidates, including two Democrats, are vying for 2 seats. The appointed incumbent is a Republican.  In the School Board race, five candidates are running for 3 at-large seats, while two candidates are running for a short term appointment.
