About this Event
Join us for a riveting discussion with renowned journalists Joe Eskenazi (Mission Local) and Joe Fitzgerald Rodriguez (SF Standard) for a deep review of the state of politics today. Joe and Joe will hit the results of the June Primary. What does this mean for the various elections going into November? What happened with the ballot measures? Any big surprises or things to keep an eye on? Nothing is off limits with these two!
