JIM THOMAS IS OUT OF TOUCH AND TIME

The ex-sheriff is out of touch with the people he hopes to represent. In
Spring 2000 voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 36 that enabled some
drug users to get treatment instead of jail. Out-of-touch Jim Thomas
opposed Prop 36.

The out-of-sync sheriff backed measure U 2000 to increase our taxes for a
$100 million jail, promoting it with a video, illegally using county funds.
The measure failed by a wide margin.

Last spring, the ex-sheriff's handpicked and heavily promoted candidate
Dorsey was soundly defeated. The voters ignored Thomas's endorsement and
chose Anderson for sheriff. Out of touch and out of sync.

The ex-sheriff is trying to use the recall movement to slip by the voters.
Maybe he realizes he can't cut it in an honest and open election. Out of
touch, out of sync and out of time.

The ex-sheriff is so far to the right, he's wrong. Supervisor Gail Marshall
is in touch with the voters and listens to her constituents. Show Jim
Thomas how wrong he is by voting "No" on recall.
