On to Phase 2 of the Campaign.....

To all my supporters and to the voters of DISTRICT 4, Thank You! I appreciate your faith and trust in my commitment to San Benito County. I landed the front runner position, but not quite enough votes to win outright. As a result Jerry Muenzer, the second vote getter, and I are in a run-off for the November election.

I have enjoyed meeting many of the voters in District 4, and listening to the concerns that you shared with me on the campaign trail. I look forward to meeting more voters in the coming months and earning their votes. I also send a BIG Thank You to my dedicated and tireless campaign committee for their hard work and to my family for their patience, love and understanding throughout this process. I would also like to thank and commend Reb Monaco for his service to San Benito County for the past eight years, and to both he and Jerry Muenzer for running positive campaigns.

We are hitting the ground running! We put up thank you signs and all Ridgemark lawn signs are down. Got a lawn sign and don't want to store it? Call me at 901-7103 or email me at campaign@fortinoforsupervisor.com and either I or one of the volunteers will come and get it! The large signs are coming down over the next few days. We have a fundraiser in the works for July, we're adding additional staffers to our campaign committee and we're welcoming new volunteers. We are on our way to November with great momentum!
