A special engagement on January 26, 2012, Thursday at 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. will be the highlight to meet San Diego Republican candidates.

The event will be held at the Sunrise Buffet on 3860 Convoy Street, #121.

The candidates will have the chance to speak briefly for three minutes. The organizers will allow questions and answers from the audience if time permits but will have the moderator check viable questions pertinent to the Hispanic American and Asian American communities.
