Soteras, Edelston endorsed in Agoura Hills

Kudos to you on taking a stand on smear campaigns and halting the presses on the last-minute mudslinging and unsubstantiated finger-pointing in the upcoming city elections. The voters have spoken on numerous occasions that they will not tolerate this childish behavior, and in fact it usually creates a sympathy backlash and swing votes swing in favor of the candidate accused.

Unfortunately, some grimy accusations slipped, nay deluged, the last Letters to the Editor with respect to Agoura Hills City Council elections. I guess desperate times call for desperate measures, and so those associated campaigns dug deep into their nasty bag of tricks; save it for Halloween!

I am supporting Alex Soteras and John Edelston, who have kept above the fray with their positive, upbeat message that focuses on how good they are rather than how bad someone else is.
