Brand is the better candidate

I listened to the first Fresno mayoral debate at Pardini’s on the radio. Henry Perea said that his model city for Fresno was San Francisco. That is the city that allowed naked people to walk around in public and is also a Sanctuary City that allows freedom there for criminal illegal immigrants who end up killing citizens of the city.

Not exactly a model city for Fresno. Lee Brand has business and public experience, unlike Perea who has no business experience, and Brand has performed very well as a member of the Fresno City Council.
