2003 Denver Mayoral Election
Penfield Tate has raised the hackles of some DPS folks with some of his campaign literature. Critics claim that he is implying that the mayor can effect school board policy when the office does not have direct authority. Tate says, "Because of my commitment to kids and families in our public schools, I'm going to give them a partnership they would have only dreamed about in the past."
Ari Zavaras' TV ads are the subject of an article in the Rocky Mountain News. He shows up all over town, speaking as a reporter, discussing election issues. From the article, "Zavaras and John Hickenlooper are the only mayoral candidates to hit the airwaves with TV campaign ads. Don Mares and Tate said they are planning ads." Zavaras has posted the ads on his website for your viewing pleasure. Thank you from all us "netizens." Update: The Zavaras ads do not play on my Mac. Bad show. Hickenlooper wants to include everyone so his ads are in three formats on his website. Zavaras only cares about Windows users. Are you listening Don Mares and Penfield Tate? Zavaras?
Here's a short article about Susan Casey and Ari Zavaras. Casey charges that there will be no change in the running of the Police Department if Zavaras is elected.
Don Mares was at Kennedy High School talking to students as reported by Denver Student Voices. From the article, "When asked if Mares would be using negative campaign advertising as part of his strategy, he said he would not. He noted that he wants his constituents to know about him and not about the negative traits of his opponents."
