As we have done in past election cycles, we will divide and conquer the many ballot measures on the November ballot. Along with our friends at Livable Sunnyvale, members will volunteer to take a particular ballot measure (or group of related measures), research them and give a short Pro-Con presentation.

This is always very entertaining and informative. We will not be holding endorsement votes - this is strictly for our education.
