Mr. Thompson, with Mayor Mounce being the top vote getter by a landslide and being only one vote from the quorum of five that requires a majority of three to pass any issue or ordinance, I doubt that Mayor Mouncehas little, if anything, to do with destroying your city. And she seems to very well qualified, more so than the group of three that dominate the quorum and always band together on nearly every issue. If you look at the issues in the archives from any council meeting you will see that Johnson, Hansen and Katzakian are the three votes that stick together that must be destroying Lodi and not Mayor Mounce. In fact, Mayor Mounce has voted against the three good old boys on many occasions being the only council representative to have the courage to speak up and be heard.

Great job Mayor Mounce. Looks like the good old boys couldn't topple you Next election will bring more voices and votes to the city council race as the eastside of Lodi is organized and voter registration is made a priority to hopefully give the eastside ethnic residents to install a representative of their choice on city council. Congratulations, Mayor JoAnne Mounce!

Congratulations to the two top vote winners. It is obvious they have our confidence to lead this city. Any negative comments, if not constructive criticism, are just sour grapes.

Why does this City continue to elect Mounce? She's totally unqualified for the job and is destroying our City.
