It's been several weeks since I've posted a blog - lots of activity on the campaign trail!  I've been diligently walking precincts and am down to the last two that I want to cover before election day. I continue to get great input from voters throughout the City from the surveys we've hand delivered to almost 50,000 homes.  In general, people are very concerned about gangs, jobs, education, downtown revitalization, air quality, and urban sprawl.  There is also a sense of frustration that things need to be done differently in Fresno and that the same old approach to the same old problems is not going to move our city forward.  I wholeheartedly agree!
 
Over the last several weeks, I've also enjoyed attending a number of neighborhood meetings in people's homes.  Meeting with and hearing from the citizens of Fresno is by far the most rewarding part of the campaign trail.  It makes the process very worthwhile!  I am convinced more than ever that Fresno is a city at its "tipping point."  It's an exciting and important time.  We need every citizen of Fresno to engage in helping move our city forward.  If you're reading this right now, make sure you vote on Tuesday, June 3rd!  Your vote does count and will make a huge difference in this election and in the future of our community.
