Two Sacramento supervisor candidates run on 'pro-Occupy' platforms

http://www.sacbee.com/2012/01/25/4215390/two-supervisor-candidates-run.html

Two candidates announced today that they will run on "pro-Occupy" platforms as they seek to unseat Sacramento Supervisors Roberta MacGlashan and Susan Peters.

Jeff Kravitz, who is challenging Peters in north-central District 3, has been a volunteer attorney for Occupy Sacramento, which has been protesting at Cesar Chevez Park downtown. He is a civil rights attorney and former law professor, according to his biography.

Gary Blenner, who is challenging MacGlashan in eastern District 4, teaches government in high school and is a former board member for the Center Unified School District.
