Joan Hartmann NEEDS US NOW! -Tues., Feb. 25, 3 p.m.
Bruce Porter has been slamming Joan with really ugly attack mailers
and TV ads that totally distort her record,
while simultaneously pretending to be the environmental candidate.
Please attend Joan’s press conference Tues., Feb. 25, 3 p.m.
at Ellwood Preserve parking lot, off Hollister Ave., across from Ellwood School.
This appearance will draw attention to those lies and remind 3rd District voters who is the real leader in so many key areas.

Super Ballot Weekend is Coming!
Go ‘Niners! Go Chiefs!
Go Dems!
Root for whichever team you like, but work the Democrats:
This is it – we are one week away from the beginning of voting in the Presidential Primary Election! On February 3rd, voters across our county will begin to receive their ballots in the mail. That means that the weekend of February 1st and 2nd will be absolutely crucial to our campaign’s success.
Please join us for Super Ballot Weekend! This isn’t your typical Super Bowl gathering – we’ll be door knocking, phone banking, and having a great time, as we continue to fight to keep our county blue. This is the last chance we have to talk to voters before voting begins!
For this week, we’re continuing our regular phone banking and canvassing schedule. Please sign up for a volunteer shift using this link.
Lastly, we have a trove of Democratic lawn signs at Dem HQ. Please stop by (123 E. Carrillo St.) and pick some up, or call (805) 965-8030 for delivery.

Victory for 2 Democratic endorsed candidates; Alejandra Gutierrez & Mike Jordan
Thanks to all the volunteers, leaders and voters
who worked elect our City Council candidates!
Alejandra won by only 8 votes.
Elected to the SB City Council: Alejandra Gutierrez and Mike Jordan
The victory of the two Democratic endorsed candidates (especially for Alejandra Gutierrez) is a tribute to the very hard work of grassroots volunteers, who phoned, canvassed and fought tooth and nail for months to make this happen, and also the superb work of the county party’s Organizing Director, Spencer Brandt, and its Chair, Gail Teton-Landis.
The hard-working grassroots volunteers
The results show Alejandra Gutierrez winning District 1 with 963 votes, just eight votes over challenger Jason Dominguez in the District 1 race. Mike Jordan won the Mesa District 2 race with a total of 1,509 votes. They will both serve 5 year terms.

Veterans Day Appreciation
Armistice
The water sings along our keel,
The wind falls to a whispering breath;
I look into your eyes and feel
No fear of life or death;
So near is love, so far away
The losing strife of yesterday.
We watch the swallow skim and dip;
Some magic bids the world be still;
Life stands with finger upon lip;
Love hath his gentle will;
Though hearts have bled, and tears have burned,
The river floweth unconcerned.
We pray the fickle flag of truce
Still float deceitfully and fair;
Our eyes must love its sweet abuse;
This hour we will not care,
Though just beyond to-morrow’s gate,
Arrayed and strong, the battle wait.
Oct 15
This is a critical time for our campaign to elect Alejandra Gutierrez and Mike Jordan to the City Council
