The Greater Oxnard Organization of Democrats, or the G.O.O.D. club, will host the Democrat candidates for the newly formed 26th Congressional District for a debate at its regular meeting Wednesday.
Moorpark City Councilmember David Pollock will meet with former Ventura County Supervisor Steve Bennett, Oxnard Harbor Commissioner Jess Herrera and business man David Cruz Thayne to discuss issues affecting the district—which includes Moorpark—at a 7 p.m. meeting at the Cafe on A, 438 S. A Street, Oxnard.
There will be no incumbant in the Congressional race, as Rep. Elton Gallegly, a Republican who has represented the area for 25 years, announced last month that he will retire at the end of his current term.
The debate is open to the public, but seating is limited so club representatives suggest arriving early.

Moorpark's own, David Pollock looked great and showed that he not only has a vision for the 26th District but is ready to go to Washington and fight for universal health care, environmental issues and ending the "Top big to Fail Syndrome." So incisive were his comments that Steve Bennett constantly copied him often word for word! Nice going David.

It's very exciting to see David Pollock bring his considerable skills to the field of those wishing to represent Moorpark. David is an excellent, intelligent, personable, and resourceful person who will be very effective maneuvering the quagmire that is Washington politics. I wish David well.
