Re “Mayor Dear Explains Why He Wants the City Clerk’s Job”
[img]2877|right|Jim Dear||no_popup[/img]Mayor Jim Dear of Carson, running for the city clerk’s desk in the March 3 election, says his opponent followed an undesirable route into his community.
Doneshia Gause, the present city clerk, Mr. Dear’s rival, and a failed candidate for the Gardena City Council, “was brought into the city of Carson by political operatives to fill the role of city clerk,” says Mr. Dear.
He claims “nobody knows who she is.”
Given the current political climate – a universe where climate change is forbidden – perhaps it should not be shocking that the skin tone of the two city clerk contenders has ignited a buzz.
“This is what I want to point out,” Mr. Dear told the newspaper as he prepared to roll out a slice of campaign strategy. “A person who wants to be the city clerk in Carson, or any community, should be someone who has spent years volunteering in the city, serving in the city, being part of the city, not someone from outside the city whom no one knows.”
Ms. Gause, a months’-old newcomer to Carson, obviously does not fit into the profile.
