Help David Win!

    

Mail ballots are being sent this week to San Diego voters to elect the city's next mayor. Democrat David Alvarez is in a tight race his special-interest-backed Republican opponent - meaning what you and I do now will determine the outcome on February 11.


"San Diego needs a steady hand after our recent turmoil. Councilmember Alvarez has the experience and leadership to lead our City back to stability and restore confidence in government.  He will be a great mayor for this City. -- Toni Atkins
