Manteca's city council candidates are starting to get their name out there and the papers are writing about them, but in few sentences.
Yesterday's Manteca Bulletin quoted Ben Cantu saying the current city council is doing the right thing and are in the right direction. Although it was meant to be on a project they hired him on as BC Consulting it still put a dent in his bid to unseat a councilman. I have news for Ben, good luck now!
This was a classic candidate first-timer new-comer mistake. Ben should have had someone else qualified to go before the board and make nice to them on their project. This way he could have stayed out of the line of fire of Dennis Wyatt. Oh, Ben...this one was free! Ben does not show up to key meetings for candidates, he does not make the time because he believes his schedule is more important. This is a very bad representation of his desire to become a city councilman. He does not try hard enough. This is a costly mistake. Don't expect to win this year, Ben!
Then there is Debby Moorhead. Dennis Wyatt basically slapped her silly calling her the crybaby she is known to be especially when she doesn't get her way. She whines all the time. She does not show up at key meetings when other candidates do. Debby has not gotten her website off the ground yet and members of her campaign committee are wondering when she is going to get it moving. With less than six weeks left, she thinks she can play it safe because she is the only female on the ticket. This is dangerous because many women do not like her already. Her campaign manager Tom Hood is proving himself to be a terrible leader which reflects his inability to lead the Chamber of Commerce as its president at one time. I guess you can say that birds of a feather flock together. No signs, no campaign appearances, no articles, no winning at the election box. Goodbye Debby! She is not aggressive enough for this position.
The only challenger left is Samuel Anderson. He is very aggressive and motivated. His campaign is pretty much stealth yet it is clear on its direction. He shows up at key meetings and greets many of the other candidates from other jurisdictions. He has a formidable website and clearly states his position and has continued to do so on a daily basis. Accurate and dead-on the issues, Samuel Anderson is a clear choice and alternative candidate for voters not wanting to vote for an incumbent this time.
He has gone door-to-door and continues to this very day. His political signs have been seen around town since April and even though many have been destroyed, probably by hired sign thugs, he's still going strong. The people like him. The people want change and he's not only promoting it, he has a plan for it. No mistakes here. I guess this is why he has a better outlook this time around running for council. He is not making any of the mistakes he did on his first time around. Samuel Anderson is aggressive and strong in this campaign season.
John Diaz, Michael Hall, and Tony Smith. NOTHING! They are on the ballot just to see their name on it. Don't even waste your vote for them. No appearances, no platform and no answers for the cities problems. They are just a waste of time. Good-bye boys.

Thats not true I have a website with my platform at www.mike4manteca.com. I am student and its funny I only get sportic calls from some newspapers.....
Thank you for posting your response to The Manteca Response! However, your website does not spell out your clear direction. It is too short and with no platitude. You should not even be running for council because what you want is something that a group of individuals should bring BEFORE the council and place pressure on them to get it done, not run for council to make it happen.
Besides, these programs would cost our city more money and that means more taxes spent on items we truly don't need. A great number of Manteca high school students don't care about school and why should we spend money on those that did not want to learn to begin with? A job center is a waste of time for Manteca, and we have several job agencies inside our city already for many years. We also have a boys and girls club and several other clubs and organizations that focus on youth. The problem is, youth don't want to participate and they don't have to if they don't want to.
Curfew on 18-20 year olds? Have you ever researched the law pertaining to a person over the age of 18? The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that they are indeed adults. They can vote in any election. The only limitation is purchasing a handgun and alcohol. This is not a good idea and not well thought out. They are adults and that is that.
What is this on your site? "Increase police presence to deter robbers, and to increase the likelihood of arrests when robberies do occur."
A robbery is an actual engagement of person to person. What you mean here is burglary. If robbery, then my mistake. Your last sentence is not clear either. Increase the likelihood of arrests when they do occur? I got news for you, if any of this happens, they WILL get arrested. I think you are talking about deterrent by more patrols.
Public safety is our most important item in our city as with any other city, but if this is all you have Mike, then why even run? I hope you see our point here because city council is serious and you had better be ready by the debate next Thursday or else be publicly embarrassed.
