Another Major Endorsement for Swearengin:

San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer

  

(San Diego, CA) – Today San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer endorsed fellow Mayor Ashley Swearengin for State Controller, saying she has “the vision to help California rebuild its economy.”  Mayor Faulconer joins Democratic San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed in supporting Swearengin, and he adds a major Southern California presence to Mayor Swearengin’s campaign.

 

“Mayor Swearengin understands what strong executive leadership requires, and she’s proven her willingness to make tough decisions for the greater good,” said Mayor Faulconer.  “Her strong background in job creation has given her the vision to help California rebuild its economy, and she will transform the Controller’s office into an economic planning hub for the State.  I’m excited about the changes she’ll bring to State Government, and I’m proud to support her.”

 

Kevin Faulconer has joined the ranks of reformers, where since taking office in San Diego, he has worked to guide the City from financial trouble by reforming economic planning and budget practices.

 

“Mayor Faulconer and Mayor Reed give the Swearengin campaign influential voices in areas rich with independent and swing-voters,” said Swearengin spokesman Tim Clark. 

 

Recent polling shows Ashley Swearengin even or ahead of her Democratic opponent as the campaign gears up for the final 3 months.  Swearengin is particularly strong among independent voters.
