Berkeley Against ELECTION LIES from Chamber of Commerce (save Kriss and Dona...) PHOTOS 
Outrageous election lies funded by Berkeley's Chamber of Commerce were protested Wednesday, November 2, 2006 in front of old City Hall in Berkeley, CA at Noon.
The Chamber has put forth numerous well-funded hit pieces for developer-friendly candidates, in an effort to unseat two of the nation's most progressive city council candidates.
