[img]2333|right|Christopher King||no_popup[/img]When the youngest City Council candidate in history drew the curtain on his campaign last month, he promised to be innovative, to fire the imaginations of voters as well as challenging them.
Stodgy press releases are so yesterday for Christopher Patrick King.
To more easily familiarize voters with the 31-year-old contender,
his campaign routinely refers to the candidate as “CPK.”
Mr. King promised unprecedented freshness and creative ideas.
New ideas that stretch minds and call for deeper-than-usual reflection.
Last Saturday evening, he hosted a most unusual campaign event in the Helms District, a sharp departure from past candidates’ standard meet ‘n greet formats.
Early this morning, a few minutes past midnight, the King campaign released a two-minute, 17-second video, “Incentive, Not Penalize.”
The message:
“CPK addresses a disturbing double-tax on businesses that located to Culver City within the last two years in his first of a series of weekly video blogs. He speaks on how this is a disincentive to economic growth in Culver City.”
The scene opens with Mr. King, casually attired in a sport coat and tieless, seated at a desk, introducing himself and discussing taxing issues.
But first, Mr. King takes issue with the Chamber of Commerce’s recent endorsements of the two incumbents in the April 8 race.
Why didn’t they choose the mortgage broker?
