“Campaign Reflections”
San Jose Spotlight’s Lorraine Gabbert interviewed District 10 candidate Lenka Wright on the evening of the March 5, 2024 primary election.
Excerpt from the article, published 3/5/24: Wright, a former broadcast journalist who works as a communications director for the city of Mountain View, is endorsed by four of Batra’s council colleagues, including San Jose Councilmembers Dev Davis, Sergio Jimenez and Omar Torres, as well as Santa Clara County Supervisor Susan Ellenberg, Santa Clara Valley Water District Board Director Jim Beall and Santa Clara County Assessor Larry Stone.
At her election night party at Mr. Mojito Bar & Grill in Almaden Valley, Wright was upbeat as she watched the early returns. Lively music filled the air as she and her supporters gathered around a fire pit and dined on appetizers.
“I’m feeling great and overwhelmed by the enthusiasm shown by my supporters,” Wright told San José Spotlight. “I met great people knocking on thousands of doors in District 10. We have such a great community here and the enthusiasm to see our community thrive moves me not only to see what I can do for District 10 but the community at large.”
Lenka gave an interview on-camera as well. View the interview.
