Hello friends and citizens of Los Angeles County,
Have you ever heard of the disease Spinal-absentitus? It is the disease
politicians get when confronted with a tough decision, whereby the
spinal cord temporarily disappears.
My name is Shane McLoud and I�m attempting to cure this disease.
I am a 3rd grade teacher at Figueroa Street Elementary in South-Central
LA and I am running for LA County Supervisor, 3rd District in the
upcoming June 2 election. I used to work for County Supervisors Deane
Dana and Don Knabe for 3 years. I am one of three candidates trying to
bring new leadership to Los Angeles County, challenging the 23 year
incumbent Zev Yaroslavsky. As part of LA�s political machinery, he has
about $1.5 million from special interest groups like lobbyists, unions,
and developers who resist the type of progress that is needed. As a
grass roots, non millionaire candidate, I have about $2,000 so far -
that is why this email and the Internet is so important - it�s the best
way to reach a lot of people for free.
This is why I want to be County Supervisor. I want to:
1) Reform government
2) Replace politics with leadership
3) Restore trust in government
4) Create opportunities for a better quality of life for all
Angelenos
This election is important to every LA County citizen because this
position is usually the swing vote on almost all important issues for
all 5 county districts, including youth programs, transportation, public
safety, the justice system, public health, welfare, the delivery of
public services, public works, and much more. There is so much potential
in this election, so many things to improve in LA, so many things that
are crying out for leadership, and so little coming out of the
incumbent. I am attempting to
replace Zev�s MO/style of hypocrisy, disingenuous representation, and
grandstanding with true leadership - one with a backbone, one that
places the interest of the citizens ahead of special interests.
What areas are within the 3rd District? Most of the Westside from Venice
north to Ventura County, Santa Monica, Westwood, Century City, Beverly
Hills, West Hollywood, Hollywood, part of Atwater Village, Silver Lake,
Los Feliz, Universal City, most of the San Fernando Valley (except
Glendale, Burbank, Granada Hills, and Chatsworth), all of the Highway
101 area, and Santa Monica Mountains/Malibu area.
OK, sounds interesting. How can I help and join the effort to create
true
government reform?
1) Please pass on this email and web site information to 20 people who
live or work in the district. Posting it on news groups is a great idea
too.
2) Contact me to help in other ways, including distributing pamphlets,
putting up lawn signs in your neighborhood, hosting get to know the
candidate events e.g. over coffee, and phoning voters.
3) Help me reach the other 2 million voters by making a contribution to
the organization mentioned below.
