fresno elections 2008

I am running for re-election because I still enjoy the job. I like the people I work with and the people I work for. I also believe that I have done a good job for my constituents and would continue to do so. I have the experience to deal with the tough times that are coming in the next few years. Like my grandfather used to say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". If you have someone who works hard for you, listens to you, and truly wants to serve you; why would you change? My future goals are protecting the quality of public safety despite financial challenges from the State, providing an environment in our county that gives children and adults the best chance to achieve productive lives and not become burdens on society, protect and expand our economic base (everyone needs a job).
