only one of the decisions we need to make as we step into
the voting booth tomorrow.Below is a progressive voters guide put together by The
League of Pissed Off Voters, which will give you a hint of
who is who in the local elections. For full info and voter

Democratic New York City Councilman Jose M. Serrano is
running for the position that was left open by Olga Mendez
(a Democrat until she turned-coat two years ago and became a
Republican). During his time on the council, Jose Serrano
has gotten funds to support community gardens and the arts
in the Bronx. He has a real passion for bringing art to his
constituents, who he recognizes live in the arts capital of
the country, but usually cannot afford to participate in it.
He is for reforming the Rockefeller drug laws and supports
increased educational funding. More importantly, Serrano
understands the pressures his community faces due to
low-paying jobs and unaffordable housing, and he says he is
committed to bringing change and growth to his community.
