Leisure World voters are reminded that the CA State Senate District 36 seat became vacant on Dec. 2 when Janet Nguyen resigned, following her election to the Orange County Board of Supervisors.
The Democratic Club is beginning the new year with preparations for a Feb. 25 special primary election to replace Nguyuen. The election to fill this seat will be on April 29.
The club’s monthly voter education sessions will resume on Jan. 15 in Clubhouse 3, Room 3, at 1 p.m. Advance reservations are not required.
The next Democratic Club membership meeting will be on Wednesday, Jan. 22, in Clubhouse 3, Room 2, at 1:30 p.m. All LW Democrats and supporters are welcome to attend.
The club’s hospitality and voter information booth, located in the parking lot outside Clubhouse 6, will be open from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. and on the first Tuesday of every month.
The club’s lunch bunch gathering, normally held on the first Wednesday of the month, was canceled because of the NewYear’sDayholiday. These informal get-together sessions, designed to welcome new club members, will begin again on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at the Hof ’s Hut Restaurant & Bakery at 11:30 a.m. Advanced reservations are not required.
Club members will also have a new Facebook group. For information on how to join the group, email the group’s coordinator Dan Larkin at danolark@gmail.com.
