DA employee attendance at DA candidate event




May an employee of the City's District Attorney's Office attend a political event for a candidate running for District Attorney? 

Yes. The District Attorney employee, however, may only attend the event as a spectator. Such an  employee may not, for example, be involved in organizing or managing the event.
