Oakland
The City of Oakland is having a number of City Council and School Board races. Oakland elects its officials by districts. At the City Council, all incumbents are facing re-election. Four candidates are challenging Rebecca Kaplan for the at-large City Council seat, while the incumbents from Districts 1, 3 and 5 are facing just one challenger each. The incumbent for District 7, is facing two.
At the School Board, incumbents in Districts 1 and 7 are facing just one challenger, while the incumbents in Districts 3 and 5 are facing three challengers each.
I have sent a questionnaire to all candidates for whom I could find and e-mail address. Names in bold link to returned questionnaires for those candidates.
