In San Mateo County, we vote for all San Mateo District Supervisors.
Palo Alto Daily News/Bonnie Eslinger, 3/10/12, "Three San Mateo County Board of Supervisor seats on June ballot, but two incumbents to run unopposed."
|
Dave Pine - District 1.. |
|
Adrienne Tissier - District 5 |
"With
a 5 p.m. Friday deadline for candidates to file, there were no
last-minute surprises in the contests for three of the five seats for
the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.
Two supervisors --
District 1 Supervisor Dave Pine and Board of Supervisors President
Adrienne Tissier for District 5 -- will run unopposed, however eight
candidates will vie over the District 4 seat.
This is Pine's first
term, having been chosen by voters in May 2011 in a special election
after Mark Church left the seat to become the county's assessor-county
clerk-recorder-and-chief elections officer. Tissier is finishing her second four-year term, having first taken office in 2005. If re-elected, she would be termed out at
the end of 2016.

Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson - District 4 vacancy |
Termed-out Supervisor Rose
Jacobs Gibson will leave her District 4 seat, which represents Redwood
City, East Palo Alto, Menlo Park and unincorporated North Fair Oaks and
Oak Knoll.
With so many contenders for Jacobs Gibson's office,
it's less likely a single candidate will s
ecure a majority of votes, and
it's anticipated the two leading candidates will be in a runoff
election in November. The eight candidates come with a range of
political strengths. A few started the race earlier than others; a
couple of candidates have name recognition working for them, and others
have been aggressively seeking funding and endorsements."
