Today our endorsement meeting voted & chose the following Berkeley Green Party endorsements. They will become official once the Alameda County Council approves them next week & will appear, with explanations in next month's Green Voter Guide. Thanks to all of the candidates & Greens who participated!

All races had "No Endorsement" as a choice, as well as the option for "with Reservations," which means that the Voter Guide will discuss the pros & cons in depth. 2 races were split 50/50 because of the # of ballots & low number of 2nd & 3rd choices marked by voters. These 2- District 2 & Measure KK- are marked as no endorsement & the writeups will reflect the opposing viewpoints & emphasize that we deadlocked on them.
