I'm Running for Mayor of SF - Please Help me Get on the Ballot
This November thousands of people will vote for the next mayor of San Francisco. As it stands now, the only name most people will recognize is that of Gavin Newsom. This is not democracy and unless a challenge is mounted against the mayor he will have no need to answer for his past performance or his promises for the future. That's why I am running for mayor and why you should consider donating to my campaign. Democracy depends on discourse and demands elected officials represent the people they serve. My campaign will be a model for participatory democracy and anything but 'business as usual. Instead it will resonate individual concerns and opinions throughout the community, and actively identify the will of the people.

In order for this vision to take root in San Francisco and elsewhere it must be put into action; and with your help, we can demonstrate how the future of politics should look. If this is something you can get behind, please consider investing in our future and making a donation to my campaign. I need $5,000 to get on the ballot and I can't make it happen with out your help.
Thank you.
Josh
