In our “Meet the Candidates” series, we are asking every supervisorial hopeful in the November 2024 election one question each week. Candidates are asked to answer questions on policy, ideology, and more in 100 words or less.
Answers are being published individually each week, but we are also archiving each answer on separate pages for each district, to make it easier for voters to browse. Click the questions below to see all the District 9 candidates’ responses.

Meet the candidates, week 1: “What is your number one issue this election”?
The most important issue is the wellness, safety and prosperity of our community. I mean that in the most holistic way, however. Nothing exists in a vacuum, and we need to strengthen our community and cultural density in comprehensive and sustainable ways.
When a community is destabilised, it leaves a void of crime and deterioration. We must invest in our District with the same vigor and priority currently being allocated for downtown. We must create legislation that ensures our vulnerable communities are protected in the face of multiple efforts to strip away their current safeguards. In short, my priority is centering community.
