For the 2014 Alameda General Election, Save Our City! Alameda endorses the following positions and candidates.

Alameda Unified School District Board of Trustees
It is expected the Mike McMahon will run for another term. In February, 2013, Mr. McMahon said that the role of the board is not to listen to the people. We think it’s time for him to go.

For the 2012 Alameda General Election, Save Our City! Alameda endorses the following positions and candidates.

Alameda City Council
We suggest you vote for ANYONE BUT Ashcraft, Cambra and Chen, as they are backed by the Alameda firefighters union, the same money that brought you Gilmore, Bonta and Tam in the November 2010 election. Jane Sullwold at least mostly has her heart in the right place, and worked against the giveaway of the golf course to developers.

Alameda Unified School District Board of Trustees
Trish Spencer will put kids first.
Kurt Peterson will strive to have the board make wiser decisions.

We urge you to REJECT the slate of Mooney, Tam and Wrobles-Wong which will put the school district administration first, ahead of our children. Mooney and Tam voted for excessive raises for the school superintendent, and voted in favor of the multi-million deal to move the administration offices to a fancy new building, and erect the horrible fence around Alameda High School.

Alameda Health Care District
Leland Blandón Traiman will fight conflict of interest at Alameda Hospital. Read Traiman’s candidate statement which was censored by the Alameda League of Women Voters.

Protect the Parks Initiative, Measure D
Vote “yes” to keep councilmembers like Rob Bonta from giving open space away to developers.

Measure B1 Alameda County Transportation Tax
This measure doubles the existing tax and extends it in perpetuity, just like the Alameda Hospital parcel tax. Voters shouldn’t support a tax increase intended to run FOREVER. Vote No on Measure B1.

California 18th Assembly District
Vote for Abel Guillen, who, unlike his opponent, hasn’t been bought by developers.
