NOVEMBER 2022 ELECTION
Progressive Democrats Endorsements

Kari Birdseye
Benicia City Council
Terry Scott
Benicia City Council
Wanda Williams
Solano County Board of Supervisors
Jose Altamirano
California Board of Equalization

On Thursday, August 25, after an informative and well-attended meeting of the Progressive Democrats of Benicia featuring a forum for three Benicia City Council candidates, Kari Birdseye, Terry Scott, and Christina Strawbridge, the membership voted to endorse Terry Scott and Kari Birdseye with majority support for both candidates.

In the forum, the candidates were presented with prepared questions on topics ranging from the Valero PAC—which has a stockpile of over $200,000 to support candidates favorable to their issues—to climate change response and adaptation strategies, as well as affordable housing for seniors and low-income families. Audience members then had the opportunity to ask questions. Each candidate was afforded ample time to answer each question and provided thoughtful, forward-thinking responses.

The membership also voted to endorse Jose Altamirano for the State Board of Equalization and to make a financial donation to each of the endorsed candidates. 

At a previous meeting, the members also voted to endorse
Wanda Williams for Solano County Board of Supervisors, District 3.
