As we’ve said in our article “What’s at Stake This Election” – we have some critical issues at stake in November: from defunding the police, to managing our transient camps, to how many lanes our roads will have. We don’t need to hand out questionnaires, or get promises – the candidates have solidly staked their differences.
Since our inception in 2019, we’ve gone from a 4-1 progressive Council that nearly defunded our police, to a 3-2 moderate council that is keeping our streets clean, our zoning laws sane, and our police funded.
We also know that we are up against a progressive machine that wants the transient camps back, more lane closures, and doesn’t even want our police to have basic necessities like bulletproof vests.
That’s why this election is a no-brainer. The only question is how we get the word out to 29,000 voters who aren’t necessarily aware of the issues. Endorsement allows us to tackle this question clearly.
