Confused about which of the 15,000 people running for city council you're going to vote for next month? You want to learn about them—and it's your civic duty—but sitting through most candidate forums is like snorting NyQuil. And there's no bar. But all that changes tonight at Candidate Survivor! We'll drag the competitors (including two city attorney candidates) onstage and fire questions about the city at them—and also administer tests of skill and of strength. Then you, the cell-phone-and-cocktail-in-hand audience members, decide when you've heard enough by texting the worst candidates off the island.
