Vote for Judy Chu Today in the Special Election for CD32!

(From APAP Board Member Ramey Ko)
 
Today, Tuesday, May 19, is the special election to fill the US Congressional seat left vacant by Sec. of Labor Hilda Solis. If you or someone you know lives in the district, Judy Chu needs your vote!

California's 32nd Congressional District contains portions of East LA, Monterey Park, Rosemead, El Monte, South El Monte, Baldwin Park, Irwindale, Azusa, Duarte, Covina, and West Covina - much of the San Gabriel Valley. California Board of Equalization Member Judy Chu has represented much of the district before in the State Legislature, as a City Council Member, and as a Mayor. The district is known for its large Asian American population, but the Latino population is even larger. However, Dr. Chu's record of strong advocacy for all the people in the district has earned her the support of most of the Latino community leaders.
