As it was in 2018, this year’s Elk Grove mayoral race, has drawn the attention of an independent expenditure committee that has already spent $192,000 in opposition to incumbent mayor Steve Lee. In this edition of Elk Grove News Podcast, we discuss this year’s independent expenditure with Mayor Ly who offered a possible explanation of why he had drawn the California Association of Realtor’s Political action committee’s ire after he expressed concern following an unflattering mailer in 2018 they were party too. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

Among the interesting aspects of the race between Steve Ly and Bobbie Singh-Allen for Elk Grove mayor are their respective strengths.

With the switch to by-district elections in 2020, Elk Grove is in the midst of a subtle political change. With councilmembers elected by-district voters only, Mayor Steve Lee remains the only councilmember elected citywide. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

With the Elk Grove City council’s recently adopted by-district voting, Mayor Steve Ly scored a big political victory. With victory, there has to be a loser. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

Many Americans know Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell. Many residents in Elk Grove know Mayor Steve Ly. McConnell is a man with great power in Washington DC as the Republican leader of the U.S. Senate and by default, an international power broker. Outside of the Elk Grove area and a few pockets of supporters in Fresno and Minneapolis, Ly is not that well known and as an individual politician, has limited influence. Throughout his long career, Republican McConnell, with recent exceptions to accommodate President Trump’s support of Putin and Russia’s interference in American elections is a rock rib conservative. You know, a law and order, voter suppression, state right’s sort of guy. And even thought he has not displayed many of the supposed characteristics in his comparatively short political career, Ly is reputed to be a liberal member of the Democratic party. On the surface these two elected officials appear to be polar opposites. But they do share a few important characteristics. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

During the Wednesday, October 10, 2018 meeting of the Elk Grove City Council, Mayor Steve Ly denied that he allows men more time to speak than women during public comment. That criticism was leveled during the public comment section of the meeting. Speaking to the council, Elk Grove resident Danessa Atiles noted that during public comment, one male speaker was engaged by both the council and police staff for over 30 minutes. The extended comment period and dialogue, which started delving into policy discussions that were not on the agenda, was allowed to proceed unabated by Ly and Elk Grove City Attorney Jonathan Hobbs. By comparison, Atiles said that female speakers are regularly given short shrift --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

Voters of a certain age will remember a time when Polaroid Land camera's were cutting edge technology. In recent years Polaroid shots have enjoyed a revival thanks in part to hipsters. Steve Ly has seemingly jumped on the hipster bandwagon as it applies to his mayoral reelection campaign as evidenced by his most recent mailer (see below). Additionally, he has gone retro or at least has tried, regarding endorsements from elected officials. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

In this year’s Elk Grove mayoral election, Steve Ly and Darren Suen have more cash than the third candidate, Tracie Stafford. Nonetheless, Stafford has some money so she should not be written off. This race, we suspect, will turn on who best emotionally connects with voters on some level. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/elk-grove-news/support

This election we have two candidates running that previously went before the our School Board in an appointment process: Jake Rambo and Steve Ly.The decision was unanimous.Now we are asked to make the same decision that our board voted on last March.

You can also hear every word spoken about them by the school board, and see every page submitted in their applications. (Public records.
