Has City Council candidate, "Republican", Catherine Carlton ever voted against a Union contract during her four years in office? Does anyone know if she applied for labor's endorsement in this election cycle?

I don't know, but perhaps you can do your own research and report the results as opposed tossing BS grenades.

Union Watcher needs to understand the job of city council is to negotiate and vote on these contracts.

There is no need to doubt Ms. Carlton's conservative credentials. She is a former member of the San Mateo County Republican Central Committee. You may recall Donald Trump spoke of supporting police forces at the Republican National Convention. A 3% raise doesn't seem out of the norm, and it certainly is in line with what Mr. Trump spoke about.

Mueller has endorsed Carlton, we trust his judgement.

They're worth more. We have an amazing safe & healthy community that our kids can thrive in. Unlike many other cities. Support our police ! Consider the income of our residents verses law enforcement. They're worth every cent.
