Dear Editor,
I live in City Council District 3 of the City of Hollister. Pauline Valdivia is my City Counselperson. I resent the attack on her capabilities to represent the voters of District 3 in the Hollister Free Lance Editorial titles, Our View.
First of all, who is “our”? Is it the Editorial Board? The Publisher, Editor or one member of Seven (7) on the Board. Assuming that a vote was taken to proceed with the undeserved attack, was the vote unanimous?
Silence implies consent. I most empathetically, disagree with the negative opinions expressed about Pauline by the person/s titled overview.
You, they know that issues before the council are approved or rejected by voting. Each members vote is no more than 20%. To say or imply that any one counselperson is responsible for all the problems is irresponsible. Residents of District 3, please join me in voting for Pauline Valdivia on Tuesday November 2, 2010.
Henry Solorio, Hollister
