It's time to vote. The mud has been slung, some has stuck some has not. But here's my take on 1 race in particular.
There has been 1 man who has been willing to fight to keep our taxes lower and hold accountable the staff for the money it's spent over the last decade and been consistent about it, even when he was the only nay vote in the group. That's Lorenzo Hernandez. He's come out on the short end of the stick time and time again, but he's always voted his conscious not what the 'good old boys' want.
For years I went to every council meeting and saw how things were going. I would ask questions and because of it I started this blog. So many things came under the directions of Bobby O'Neal that were unethical, bad business sense, and so often done for the cronies that supported him with no regard to the cost or repercussion to the city. Just read through the couple of years worth of information here. I filled charges that magically 'got lost' not once but twice at the DA's office. In the voter fraud charges the DA admitted there were improprieties but 'had bigger fish to fry'. And Gonzales, wants to forget all that because he plays in the band at church or because he can sweet talk just fine. DON'T!!! And I'm not even going back to the criminal records of his youth which were beyond serious.
Look our city is fiscally in a bad place. We need someone who is willing to say 'no' when that is the right answer. Someone willing to question everything that comes across the councils agenda and not just rubber stamp it.
Please, the elections have started for the 3 year terms in district 3 and 4. Learn the truth about your candidates and GO VOTE!!! We should have 1500 people vote, we'll be lucky if 300-400 vote. For both races it's important to get out and vote.
God Bless,
Dennis
