Dear Mayor & Council, I would appreciate some explanation as to why the City of Santa Clara is mailing campaign literature to residents.  You are spending public funds on political propaganda in trying to sway the election outcome. You have quoted the City Attorneys report from September 29 2020 which appears to been done as part of normal work day where he is paid with public funds. You state that the City has never instigated any law suits against the 49ers.  The 49ers have no other way  to get your attention but to haul you into court or arbitration.  The Council has spent large sums to fight the the voter right act and the attempting to change a contract to manage the stadium. Meanwhile the City streets are littered with trash, street lights are out, trees are not being maintained, but there is money to go to Paris.This has got

I am a teacher and lifelong resident of SC. I have taught at Pomeroy for 16+ yrs. I am a product of SCUSD (Pomeroy, Buchser and SCHS). I and other teachers of SCUSD endorse Bonnie Lieberman, Andrew Knaack and Albert Gonzalez for school board. We want a board who will work collaboratively with district stakeholders to make the best decisions for SCUSD students. We want a board who listens and respects teacher and parent voice. We want a board that will help us to provide the best education possible to our students by addressing educational issues, especially during this pandemic, in a timely manner. We want transparency in decision making so we can prepare for the future. It’s time that we elect a board who will put children first, not just in their words, but with their actions. Join teachers and parents in supporting Bonnie, Andrew and Albert!

Foreign King Jed York has injected San Francisco-like dark money through “foreign collusion” with four (4) city council candidates: H. Bhatia, K. Park, S. Jain and A. Becker, all of whom constitute the “Four Horsemen of the Santa Clara Apocalypse.” Foreign collusion exists as a non-Santa Claran interloper is meddling in our community to “PACK” 70% of our council. DreamHost, LLC, is a common registrar for the following: www.nooneill.com, www.nowatanabe.com, www.nookeefe.com, and www.nomezzetti.com. Did each of the 4 Horsemen “coincidentally” or “secretly” select DreamHost? The Mercury endorses the 4 Horsemen, genuflecting to King Jed to preserve access to the NFL. The 4 Horsemen reap benefits of foreign money and NONE have DENOUNCED Jed. I ask Santa Clarans to now and forever reject each of these colluders, and repel the foreign invasion now. Later, we’ll take out the trash—ourselves. Long Live the Mission City!

During the lighting storm, I witnessed a large explosion near Levi's Stadium.  I told my friend and neighbor Harbir Bhatia, and she immediately drove to the scene of the explosion to see if everyone was OK and how she could help. This is one of the reasons I plan to vote for Harbir for City Council District 1. Instead of running away from the fire, Harbir is the type of person who runs TO the fire. On the Santa Clara city council, I am confident that Harbir will run to any fire, whether it is a burning building or the fire that is our $34 million city deficit.  I plan to vote for Harbir to represent District 1 in November!

I will turn 18 in March, 2021, four months after the 2020 election voting deadline. To exercise my right to vote, I realize that I will have to wait four more years. With the election approaching fast, teenagers who are old enough to vote should take advantage of this opportunity and make your voice heard. For those of us who are not old enough to vote, let’s take steps to educate ourselves, so that we will be ready and fully informed to vote in the 2024 election. It is crucial for us to become aware of the candidates’ different political stances and viewpoints as actions we take will impact all of us in the future.

On top of the global pandemic, a wave of devastating wildfires has hit the West Coast. Fueled by hot, dry humid weather and electrical storms, fires in California, Oregon, and Washington have spread rapidly, killing people, destroying thousands of structures and acres, and diminishing air quality. At one point, my family received an evacuation warning and I saw the air glow orange from fires not far from our house. This past June, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) reported that there were an estimated 19,500 fires nationwide as a result of fireworks. I urge California and other states to prohibit personal fireworks and sparklers in order to reduce fire danger.
