Both sides have clear reasons for their positions. In brief, one side views the power base of Mayor Pulido as sufficiently corrupt to warrant action to overturn him. The other side worries about losing power and the changes from a new administration. For me, I fear consolidated power and corruption more than change. I worry more about the Mayor's self-interest and its impact on the city then change from a new administration. At least with change there exist new opportunities for community involvement then is offered by the current administration. . The old political regime of Miguel Pulido should die off. It must if die off if the the city hopes to grow beyond the strangle -hold Pulido has over it. If we seek at least the possibility for a more open and transparent government, business community, a better quality of and better opportunities for all, we need to replace the old, derelict regime. It is too late for the Mayor to become an honest and ethical man. We all know this. It is time for change. And I do not mean a.legacy regime that Councilmember Solorio represents. Change needs to begin with a person unrelated and unthethered to the Mayor. A tall order but we do have people in the community who do not owe the Mayor even a smile. By any reasonable means, change must occur. Sent from Yahoo Mail on.

One has to wonder why some council members are so determined to place the cart before the horse. Their frantic pace to make this District redraw happen does not pass the smell test. Their strategy it seems, is to exercise control over the next election cycle, not to just include the Asian community as they claim.
