East Bay Express endorses Greg Hodge.

East Bay Express endorses Greg Hodge.” 

 

The Express, in it’s endorsements stated, “In District Three, Downtown-West Oakland, we’re recommending Oakland school board member Greg Hodge over incumbent Nancy Nadel and challenger Sean Sullivan. We think Hodge, who is an inspiring speaker and all-round smart guy, can champion progressive ideas and get things done.” 

Regarding Greg’s competitors, the Express stated, “”[Hodge’s] political views are not that much different from Nadel, but he possesses neither her prickly personality nor her penchant for holding grudges, which have harmed her effectiveness and alienated parts of her constituency. As for Sullivan, he has received some significant support in this campaign, but he’s also given indications that he may turn out to be another rubber stamp for the council majority.”
