The Long Beach Post and the Downtown Long Beach Alliance are hosting a forum on Thursday with seven candidates seeking to represent District 2 on the City Council.
The district includes much of the Downtown waterfront, Alamitos Beach, the Port of Long Beach and other areas. The incumbent, Jeannine Pearce, is not seeking reelection.
The candidates include small business owner Cindy Allen, social worker Jeanette Barrera, school safety officer Jesus Cisneros, small business owner Robert Fox, teacher Eduardo Lara, accountant Nigel Lifsey and YouTuber Ryan Lum.
The forum is from 6-8 p.m. at Elinor at MADE by Millworks. The full HD video will be available after the event.
