Janet, I'm with you on your observation that Jose Gardea will give you straightforward answers…Read More "without . . . political evasion." He's a refreshing contrast to the candidates we've come to accept. So let's stop accepting them and elect Jose Gardea!
Whoever wins is likely in for 12 years. Make the right choice!

Did "no way, Jose" write the letter of support to Divine Saviour Catholic Church…Read More "encouraging" them to take me to court? (they lost, I won). It was written on city letterhead, clearly a violation of separation of church and state where the city had to business in a public dispute. And, clearly an abuse of power.
Come on, Jose, did you write the letter?

Don't vote for "no way, Jose". "No way, Jose" means another 12 years of "do…Read More nothing, Ed Reyes". Jose has been in office for 12 years and has done nothing to improve our district. How can anyone think of voting for some one else? EASY!! "
CD1 has no jobs, no new businesses, huge potholes, dirty sidewalks, too much violence, and a lot of other problems. Where has "no way, Jose" been? He has not been in the district or attended any neighborhood councilmeetings or any community meetings. LAPD Northeast has been without a neighborhood prosecutor for 3 years due to Jose and his boss budget cuts to the city attorney's office. \
His boss, "do nothing, Ed Reyes" has not even been campaining for him. It looks like "no way, Jose" wants to distance himself from his boss. That will not work. CD1 deserves someone that will work for them and clean up the district and bring in much needed businesses and jobs. Don't vote for another 12 years of "do nothing, Ed Reyes" with his employee, "no way, Jose". Vote for change. Vote for Gil Cedillo.
