Dave Mandelkern

This a personal endorsement. Normally, I wouldn’t be making an endorsement for a countywide position that should be appointed, rather than elected. But this time around, there is a candidate that I personally know to be the kind of person we need in county government.

I have known Dave Mandelkern for more than thirty years. Dave’s an entrepreneur and trustee of the San Mateo County Community College District. But, more importantly, I know Dave to be an honest advocate of good government. Dave has been working for years to improve the quality of government and elected officials in our county.

If you’re the kind of person who skips these races because you have no idea who to vote for or why you’re even voting, this is an opportunity to make a difference. I recommend you vote for Dave Mandelkern for Treasurer-Tax Collector this year.
