Abominous

Sunga sent out only one flier? That guy doesn't seem like he even wants to win. Let's put him out of his misery and vote for Gomes, and Brown. Leave the 3rd vote in the round file.

sunga is assured the asian and part of the latino vote, so why waste money on mailers.
he is also the only candidate with a bi-lingual web component.
think the asians will even look at gomes with all the vitriol coming from vibbers, slanderous polls, racially disparaging polls?

I sincerly hope you don't vote based on the number of fliers a candidate mails out. Please re-think your voting strategy!
It's very disappointing to me that so many people are voting by mail. Unfortunately it says much about our society.

Also don't try to rush in your vote. This is the future of Vallejo! Read your sample voter guides, especially with all of the candidate statements. Be informed before you cast your vote! We can't continue with more of the same!

Dear Raised

The number of mailers a candidate sends out can be a gauge of the monetary support they enjoy. It can also be a gauge of the support a candidate enjoys from one or more well financed pacs. The last time Sunga ran we received five glossy mailers all from a pac that was for all practical purposes the police and fire department unions.

Why do you find that people who mail in their ballots are disappointing. The facts that it is easier to put the completed ballot in the mail is just that easier.

Hopefully all the candidates used Vallejo businesses to print their fliers and signs.
