San Mateo County Democrats will say who they want nominated for president at a “presidential straw poll” Oct. 21.
The event will include presentations on the Democratic candidates, including a speech about U.S. Sen. Hilary Clinton by former state senator Jackie Speier, and a talk on U.S. Sen. Barack Obama by former state controller Steve Westly.
Participants will vote, and results will be unveiled at the end of the event.
Sponsored by the San Mateo County Democratic Central Committee, the event will run from 2 to 5 p.m. at the San Mateo County Event Center, 2495 S. Delaware St. in San Mateo. Price of admission is a $25 donation to the committee; participants under 18 can attend for free.
