Julie Lythcott-Haims is considering jumping into the race to succeed Rep. Anna Eshoo in the U.S. Congress,and I support her totally. she would be a terrific candidate and has done so much in her private work and public work for Palo Alto, but CA as a whole. I love Joe Simitian too.....I just am concerned as Rep Pelosi will retire at some point and there is a man in SF to run for her seat and has gathered all kinds of support and $$ behind him and will be the candidate in my opinion. Then all the state legislators on this side of the Bay are men and the only female voice we have left on this side of the bay is Zoe Loftren who I support but has a very viable maile Democratic challenger in Sam Liccardo this year. I worry we will lose women's voice in 2024!! So I'm behind Julie Lythcott-Haims all the way! JoAnn Loulan (Julie I'm trying to reach you and don't have your current email address!)

We are incredibly fortunate to have someone with the intelligence, integrity, humanity and life-long, unselfish commitment to our community like JOE SIMITIAN.

There is no one more deserving than Joe. Full stop.

Do we really need yet another 70+ year old career politician to take over Eshoo's seat? How about some fresh, younger person who, maybe, worked in the private sector and can relate a bit more to average citizens.

If you want to vote for someone who is intent in bringing skyscrapers to every neighborhood, then Julie Lythcott-Haims is your candidate.
