Good morning, Stockton.
👋Hello readers,
On Monday, we’re excited to co-host a VotingMatters event with CalMatters and Delta College. It kicks off a week of candidate forums at the college.
Speaking of Delta College and politics, I covered the first of a series of candidate forums at the college on Thursday.
The series is hosted by the League of Women Voters of San Joaquin County and will continue into next week. Please check my story for the complete schedule.
Stocktonia reporter Edward Lopez continued his excellent work covering Stockton this week. If you missed it, read his latest: Stockon’s Legislative Committee is looking into enforcement of for-profit donation bins and recommending expanding card tables.
Finally, for lovers of the theater, “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical” finishes its run at Stockton Civic Theatre this weekend. Check here for showtimes.
Have a great weekend!

The first in a series of candidate forums hosted by the League of Women’s Voters of San Joaquin County kicked off Thursday — but not without a slight hitch. Unfortunately, the event only made it to the halfway point after a candidate in one of the day’s featured races didn’t show.
