39th Assembly Green Candidate Lindblad to address a failed political climate in Sacramento at forum

Sept. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Jack Lindblad, vying for the 39th Assembly seat on this November’s ballot, says that his presentation will “focus on how three critical District concerns: jobs, education, quality of life and a sustainable environment will advance once a change of the narcissist political climate in Sacramento is reached by voting out corporate partisans. Being unaccountable to constituents while beholdened to Lobbyist interests explains Legislator's failure to live up to their duties and live within their means.”

Panorama High School, 8015 Van Nuys Boulevard, Panorama City, 91402 is the location of a candidate forum, today, Monday evening, September 27, 2010 at 7:00 PM. Meet candidates for the 39th, 40th Assembly, 20th State Senate Districts 27th, 28th Congressional Districts. Candidates for the office of Superintendent of Public Instruction have been invited. Ask questions; get answers!

"Venue for this forum is the Panorama High Auditorium, which has seating capacity of approximately 750 persons," explains Jay Stern, the event coordinator, a Chemistry instructor at Panorama High School.

"The tentative format is for each candidate to state their platform issues, followed by question and answer periods. Speaker order is expected to be by blind draw. We are open to suggestions for alternative formats. Panorama students, especially those in the Social Studies Department, will participate in a mock election. They will use the Forum as an opportunity to hear the candidates, to decide how to vote, and to discuss their rationale for those votes. In addition to students, the event will be open to the parents, and to the community at large. We anticipate that the event will be well attended," says Mr. Stern.

An architect by education and profession, Jack Lindblad is running to win California's 39th State Assembly District seat in 2010, in back-to-back contests and one-on-one rematch with the incumbent, earning 8.1% of the vote in 2008, a high showing for alternative parties. His award-winning sustainable urban design and architecture practice has a healthcare facility emphasis. Lindblad campaigns on a Green-values platform for a carbon-neutral, relocalized, 100% renewable energy, steady state economy, basing development on bio-regional determinism, not developers.

He will advance these moral imperatives in the Legislature to balance the budget, manage multiple collapses, mitigate and adapt to ecological collapse's worst catastrophes and alleviate economic disruptions. A member of Economic Alliance of the San Fernando Valley Livable Communities Council, he has helped form neighborhood councils, co-authoring a sustainable community plan to revitalize the Panorama City commercial area.
