The slate is a diverse coalition of local community advocates who are banding together to fight Donald Trump and the corporate Democrats who allowed him to become president.
Woods ran in June for the San Francisco Democratic County Central Committee, losing by a few votes. According to the slate, “The Democratic Party will best defend its values of equal rights across lines of race, gender identity, religion, ethnicity, and sexual orientation when it represents the 99% not the 1%.
The election will be held Sunday, Jan. 8, 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., at the Labors 261 International Union Hall at 3271 18th St. Any registered voter living in the 17th Assembly District will be eligible to vote.
