![]() Voting Yes on Fremont Union High School District Measure M - renew existing parcel tax to fund the local high schools. Voting Jed Cyr, since the other guy appears to have no campaign website or online presence, and I couldn’t find anything negative or scandalous about Cyr, who seems to be doing a fine job. Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District Director, Ward 3 - I have to choose between Jed Cyr (incumbent) and Ed Riffle. Jane Chen Lombard, Carol Ann Somersille, and Meghan Fraley seem like the people to vote for to run this healthcare district, with both medical experience, leadership experience, and bright vision based on their respective campaign websites. ![]() Honestly, to me, the challengers here seem more promising than the incumbents, with their investigation scandal. She too is a doctor, and has leadership experience at Palo Alto Medical foundation. She’s also been a board member at El Camino Medical group, which seems relevant. ![]() Carol Ann Somersille is also a doctor, contributes to a community clinic and cares about reducing healthcare inequity according to her website. …this reflects poorly both on Miller and on Zoglin, who was a boardmember at the time and voted for the investigation without revealing to the public even the barest hint of what it was about. Surprise drama! Which is, of course, bloody impossible to resolve, since everything is secret. The allegations were never described, and there’s counter-allegations that the whole thing is a political hit-job. Julia Miller is also an incumbent, but there’s some unspecified and secret misconduct allegations, of which she was not exonerated but also not punished for, in what was kind of like a settlement but not really. John Zoglin seems to be a well-respected incumbent, but who’s not a doctor, just a marketing executive. Meghan Fraley has excellent experience both as a doctor and as a community organizer, that’s good.

So I’ll stick with voting for the incumbents: Wong, Casas, Landsberger.įor Sunnyvale Mayor, I’m voting for Larry Klein. But he doesn’t seem to have the background or experience, I tried to find what would make him qualified for this position and didn’t find anything other than his industry experience. The challenger - Govind Tatachari - seems like a decent guy too. I was unable to find controversies or scandals online about them. Gilbert Wong, Laura Casas, and Peter Landsberger are the incumbents, and they seem like they’ve got good experience. So I need to just pick one to vote off the island. I need to vote for three out of the four: Govind Tatachari, Peter Landsberger, Laura Casas, and Gilbert Wong. įoothill-De Anza Community College District Governng Board Member. I just changed my mind on this one - I was going to vote for Mah, based on her slightly more detailed issues page, but changed my mind to Caswell based on the comments in. Both seem to have a good background and know what they’re doing. Choosing between Grace Mah and Melissa Baten Caswell. Santa Clara Board of Education Trustee, area 1. I might just write in a pointless write-in - Scott apparently has some ethics complaint against him, and he’s a former prosecutor.
