What: INFORUM Presents Meet the Candidate: Matt Gonzalez.

Attorney; Vice Presidential Candidate

As president of San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors, Gonzalez helped to install rank choice voting and raise the San Francisco minimum wage. In 2003, he ran for San Francisco mayor in a controversial election, just barely losing to Gavin Newsom. An unorthodox politician and local lawyer, Gonzalez plans to shake up the 2008 presidential race and reframe the dialogue. Join us for another “Get to Know the Candidate” program, featuring independent Ralph Nader’s running mate, Gonzalez, in a wide-ranging conversation about his political views, background and plans for the race in 2008.
