The Ward 7 Democrats Mayoral Debate Watch Party

Join the Ward 7 Democrats for the first official debate of DC’s mayoral election season! Dinner and refreshments will be provided!

Ward 7—especially communities East of the Anacostia River—deserve more than drive-by promises; we deserve real answers.

This debate is produced in partnership with WUSA9 and will be moderated by Lorenzo Hall. The questions were developed using exclusive social determinants of health data provided by Dr. Christopher King, inaugural Dean of Georgetown University’s School of Health—ensuring the conversation is grounded in real data, not rhetoric.

Participating candidates were invited based on demonstrated local support, measured by the number of Fair Elections Program donors residing in Ward 7 zip codes East of the Anacostia River.

We are proud to partner with East River Family Strengthening Collaborative (ERFSC), a cornerstone Ward 7 nonprofit celebrating 30 years of service to families and community this August.

This event is led by the Ward 7 Democrats Elections Committee, whose work is focused on increasing civic engagement, voter education, and informed participation across the ward.
