Support Heather McPhail Sridharan for District 2 Marin Supervisor

"Amongst the abundance of plastic signs outside many homes in towns surrounding Redwood sits the easily identifiable green and orange Heather McPhail Sridharan sign. McPhail Sridharan is running for the board of Marin County Supervisors in the upcoming 2024 election, having over 35 years of experience in public service. . .

Eileen Burke, the mayor of San Anselmo, is one of over 50 people endorsing McPhail Sridharan. She has served on the council for eight years, which is essential to the county supervisor’s role of appealing to the community’s needs.

“She recognizes that the job is to be a partner with the cities and towns in the district,” Burke said. “She’s a really good communicator and a good listener. It’s not about what’s best for her; it’s what’s best for the community she serves. That’s rare among politicians, but it’s a super important quality.'”

"I support Heather McPhail Sridharan for the District 2 seat on the Marin County Board of Supervisors in Tuesday’s election because she has shown that she is willing to listen to the people who will be affected by decisions she will be charged to make.

She has hundreds of individual endorsements, and a recent example shows why so many community members support her. At a gathering in Gerstle Park, McPhail Sridharan took notes on the attendees’ concerns, provided information that she learned in her research about funds spent to address homelessness and solicited feedback on ideas and actions taken in San Rafael and elsewhere.

I trust that she will put in the work to study relevant data and information and that she will consider the long-term fiscal and other impacts of her decisions on this and other issues. As a Greenbrae resident, I must look to the District 2 supervisor for local concerns, and she has shown that she will work hard to achieve results at this local level as well.

A simple but impactful example is the robust Kentfield-Greenbrae “Safe Routes to School” program that McPhail Sridharan spearheaded for over a decade. It engages a network of neighborhood captains that advocate for safety measures, such as crossing guards and encourage students and families to walk and ride to school.

As a Latina in Marin, I was particularly impressed that she sought and received the endorsement of Omar Carrera, the CEO of Canal Alliance nonprofit organization in San Rafael. These endorsements show that community leaders trust her experience and decision-making to address the challenges that our Marin communities face in the years ahead."

"A good politician is curious and polite. A confident politician will welcome different points of views, which can only bolster their own educated opinion. A well-learned individual realizes that the best opinion is not theirs nor the speaker’s, but somewhere in between. A good opinion is always up for debate and open to evolve with new input. McPhail Sridharan exemplifies this thinking.

She is curious and interested in your opinion. She is also a very good listener. I appreciate an honest politician who speaks to representing the majority of local constituents while protecting the voice of the minority. I think the very decision that led to the council members pulling their support is the reason why she is the right choice and the best choice. Please join me in voting for someone who will listen and not harden her opinion until she hears your voice too.

Please join me and vote for Heather McPhail Sridharan."
