Campaigns kicking off

Soon, November elections will be upon us. Well, that might be a bit of a stretch, but they are definitely coming, and more local campaigns are officially launching every day. On March 26, former City Council Member Laura Morrison kicks off her campaign at Threadgill’s World Headquarters, at 5 p.m. In her invite, the mayoral hopeful promises to “address our housing crisis with neighborhood-friendly solutions, prioritize the development of a mass transit system that meets our needs, and run City Hall openly, with a focus on the residents and businesses it is supposed to serve.” Then, on April 6, Natasha Harper-Madison officially joins the race for Austin City Council District 1. That event will take place at Big Easy Bar and Grill, starting at 6 p.m.
