Two candidates, business owner Irene Smith and San Jose-Evergreen Community College District trustee Omar Torres are fighting for the seat. It is time to address our fundamental human needs.

Mahan, who was sworn into his first term of any political office in December 2020, launched his campaign for mayor in September in what he called a revolution of common sense.

However, we were really taken aback by the newly hired (6 weeks or so) (by SJS) by the woman who wrote about far-right Conservatives infiltrating the school board election.

Incumbent Councilmember Pam Foley is running unopposed as she seeks reelection in District 9.
