Kitchen Table Chat #9
Belle Haven Community Campus,
100 Terminal Avenue, Menlo Park, CA 94025
Hello Team Chat,
At our last Kitchen Table Chat on August 13th, we talked about the November 3, 2026 election and the many items on the ballot. One of the best ways to break down all that information is to hold a Ballot Party. Several of you expressed interest in hosting one for your friends and neighbors, while others asked, "How do we host a ballot party?"
So, let’s host a Ballot Party together at our next Chat on Thursday 9/10/2026!
We will research and use plain language to make local, county, and state measures easy to understand. Each table will form a small group, working together with handouts and online resources. Here is the framework we’ll use to organize our discussions:
What is the problem this measure or proposition is trying to solve?
What changes if this passes?
What stays the same if this fails?
Who supports it? Who opposes it?
Follow the Money: Who is funding each side?
We may not cover every single item, but we will get a great head start! This hands-on workshop will give you the tools and confidence to plan your own Ballot Party with family, friends, or social groups.
Lots of folks have already registered—thank you! If you haven’t registered yet, please be sure to do so.
