Dave competes with six other candidates for the San Diego County Sheriff. More Progressives are important in our criminal justice system, so it is important for Progressives to support and, if in San Diego county, to get out and vote for Dave in the June 7th primary. If Dave can rise above the fray and be in the top two in the primary, Progressive support will again be needed to insure that Dave will be elected in the General Election on November 8th.
