After
only one term as mayor, Pamela Torliatt is running for County
Supervisor in 2010. In my opinion, (and many other Petaluma
residents') Pamela Torliatt is not ready for County Supervisor.
We have seen (and continue to experience) many weaknesses during her
term as mayor.
I like Pam. I voted and suported her in her political career for
many years. During her years as council member she demonstrated
excellent qualities, but sometimes power overwhelms some people and
suddenly, they are changed.
This is what happened to Pam Torliatt when she was elected Mayor of
Petaluma, I think. I am sorry, I was wrong. I don't think
she was ready for Mayor and I don't think she is ready to be County
Supervisor.
I will evaluate and interview all candidates early 2010 and the results
will be posted on my site at each candidate's page. Stay
tuned! Very important elections coming up.
I am a
senior citizen and Petaluma has been
my home for the past 36
years. I love Petaluma. It is a wonderful City with plenty
of history and wonderful people. Like everything else or anywhere
else, politics is not perfect in Petaluma. Sometimes a group of
people can govern a city and if no one pays attention, bad regulations
can become laws.
It
happened in Petaluma in 2004 when a
group of people with too much
influence with City Council, drafted an ordinance that Council passed
unanimously. The result has been high cost to the City and
citizens of Petaluma and the death of hundreds innocent animals.

And please vote . . .
with your heart and common sense.
