WISH TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MY CANDIDACY RUN TO REPRESENT YOU
AS YOUR CITY COUNCIL MEMBER FOR YOUR DISTRICT 9 ?
I AM BELLA DE SOTO - THE ONLY LATINA RUNNING FOR THIS POSITION,
* AS A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE, you must write my name on the Ballot.
TO REPLACE DISTRICT # 9 INCUMBENT COUNCILWOMAN JAN PERRY.
THE ELECTION WILL BE ON MARCH - 03/08/05, WITH A POSSIBLE RUNOFF ON 3/18/05.
I DO NOT HAVE THE LUCRATIVE FINANCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE
COUNCILWOMAN JAN PERRY ENJOYS, BUT WITH ANY COMMUNITY SUPPORT/VOTE,
WE LOOK AHEAD...
NOTABLY, IN THE LAST 10-20 YEARS, THIS REGION=S ETHNIC CHEMESTRY HAS CHANGED DRAMATICALY. NOW, AROUND 93% ESPANISH SPEAKING, WHICH HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN CRAFTING POLITICAL POLICIES, IMPACTING THIS DISTRICT DISCRIMINABLY HARD. A PERSON LIKE ME IS BADLY NEEDED, WHO IS VALLIENT,CONFIDENT, KNOWLEDGEABLE AS A LONG STANDING ACTIVIST , WHO HAS FAUGHT FOR MANY SOCIAL JUSTICE CAUSES.ON A LOCAL/STATEWIDE /NATIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL ARENA, TO CONFRONT COUNCILWOMAN JAN PERRY REGARDING MANY AREAS OF CARELESS NEGLECT. THE PEOPLES= COLECTIVE SUPPORT IS CRITICAL, SO THAT AS A COMMUNITY UNITED, CAN IMPROVE THIS REGION-DISTRICT 9, WHICH HAS NOT PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT ROLE FOR A LONG TIME.
WHILE DWELLING DISPLACEMNET- GENTRIFICACION (GENTRY-HIGH SOCIETY) CONTINUES, WITHOUT INITIATING PROGRESIVE CHANGES TO REFLECT THE CHANGING TIMES, DESIGNATED FUNDS HAVE ALREADY BEEN EARMARKED TO OTHER PRIORITIES, WITH NO BENEFIT/ADDRESS THE MANY NEEDS IN THIS AREA. DISTRICT 9, IS ONE OF THE LARGER ONES IN THE LA COUNTY, AND REQUIRES PARTICULAR ATENTION. I CAN NOT DETAIL MUCH HERE...
RECENTLY I WAS RE-ELECTED FOR A SECOND YEAR TERM (10/30/04), TO THE VERNON/MAIN NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL (Map:North-Martin Luther King Blvd., South-Slawson Ave., East-110 HWY,- and to West-Central Ave.) , I AM AT YOUR DISPOSITION IN THIS CAPACITY, COME EACH 1ST SATURDAY OF EVERY MONTH @ 11:30 AM, AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARY JUNIPERO SERRA, 46/MAIN ST. AND GOD WILLING, ON MARCH- 3/08/05 , WITH YOUR HELP, I WILL BE SENT TO CITY HALL TO PROUDLY REPRESENT YOUR NEEDS/INTERESTS. AS YOUR DISTRICT 9 COUNCILPERSON BELLA DE SOTO.
I HAVE ALREADY BEEN HARD AT WORK FOR THE GOOD OF THE WHOLE IN MY ACTIVISM, SO I WILL JUST CONTINUE THE FIGHT WITH EVEN MORE ENERGIZED VIGOR FROM YOU THE PEOPLE.
I REPRESENT ALL, NOT A SELECTIVE FEW...
REMEMBER THE NAME ABELLA DE SOTO@. THE ONLY LATINA CHALLENGING THE STALE STATUS. WITH YOUR VOTE OF CONFIDENCE WE WILL START EXECUTING POSITIVE/BENEFICIAL POLICIES FOR ALL. THIS IS A MOST UNIQUE COMMUNITY AND WE ALL NEED TO LEARN/APPRECIATE OUR RICH CULTURES TO UNITE EACH OTHER WITH COMMON GOALS, AS EACH ONE OF US IS A RICH THREAT IN THIS LIFE TAPESTRY.
CHANGE IS NEVER EASY, PLEASE JOIN MY EFFORT TO TRIUMPH ON THIS HISTORIC COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION .
AS AN ACTIVIST OF SEVERAL YEARS, I HAVE DEDICATED A GREAT PART OF MY LIFE, SINCE TEENAGE AGE, BORN IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC (THE CARIBBEAN), ARRIVED NEW YORK CITY (1965), ALSO IN NEWPORT, VERMONT/MONTREAL, CANADA, TUCSON, AZ., 11> YEARS IN LA. ALWAYS FIGHTING, COMBATING SOCIAL INJUSTICES ON A LOCAL, NATIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL LANDSCAPE WITH VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS WITH ROOTS WORKING FOR POSITIVE CHANGE.
MOREOVER, SINCE 2002, I HAVE BEEN ENGAGED WITH THE VMNC (VERNON/MAIN NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL), TOWARD ITS CERTIFICATION ON JAN. 28/03, AND LEARNING/PARTICIPATING, ON PERTINENT ISSUES OF CONCERN TO THIS COMUNITY. TODAY, I NEED YOUR VOTE OF CONFIDENCE TO ENTER THE BALLOT IN MARCH / 05, AND SEE THROUGH CHANGE OF COMMON BENEFIT TO ALL. AS YOUR COUNCIL PERSON, I WILL JUSTLY REPRESENT ALL RESIDENTS/BUSINESS OWNERS IN DISTRCIT 9. MY DESIRE IS/WILL BE TO FOCUS MY ENERGY, WITH OTHERS TO WORK//DEMAND/IMPLEMENT, AND EXECUTE PLANS THAT WILL BEGIN A CYCLE OF POSITIVE BENEFITS. BUT WITH OUT YOUR SUPPORT THIS COMMUNITY WILL CONTINUE TO STAND A DEVIDED ONE, IGNORED BY ITS ELECTED OFFICIALS, AND OTHER FORCES, WHO WISH TO MAINTAIN THIS REGION AS IS, OR IMPROVE IT FOR OTHERS, NOT YOU!!! ON MARCH 8TH, 2005, ELECT ME AS YOUR (VOICE) DISTRICT COUNCIL REP. AT CITY HALL.
DEMAND THAT YOUR COUNCIL PERSON REPRESENT YOU...
