Official Statement for Cat Woods
Candidate for |

Education and Qualifications: My campaign is about changing the system to represent voters. I share your values: stop the wars; value people over corporate profits; single-payer health care for all; protect civil liberties and the environment; rights for immigrants; end the death penalty; and raise minimum wage. You are not alone in these values; these are the majority views of the Bay Area. The reason you do not see them at work in your lives - the reason that you see all your tax dollars go to invade other countries rather than to alleviate traffic or provide health care - is that our electoral system does not represent you. The only way to put our common values into action is to change the political system so that it reflects our views instead of just big money and corporate control. This is possible with simple reforms such as ranked voting and fair media access. You need someone to represent you who will fight to change the machine that prevents you and the many people like you from having a voice and your fair share of power. Vote for your values instead of the machine. Vote for me, Cat Woods. Please see http://www.catwoods.info for more information. |
