Promises, Plans and Wishful Thinking in Oakland Mayoral Forum

Voters in Oakland will face a big decision in April. A special election will determine who will be the city’s mayor following the recall of Sheng Thao last year. The candidates include former Congressmember Barbara Lee and former City Councilmember Loren Taylor, who almost beat Sheng Thao three years ago. They participated alongside several other candidates in a forum Wednesday night. Scott, Marisa, Guy and KQED's Alex Hall discuss the issues facing the next mayor and what's at stake for Oakland.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
