Tuesday, Dec. 9, Theresa Perez will find out how effective her candidacy tor a Supervisorial seat ln District three has been. Perez, a CSUF La RazaStudles instructor, has put ln many long and hard hours of work ln her effort to gain the county seat. For many people the effect of these strenuous hours would have taken their toll a long time ago. But ln looking at and talking with the optimistic candidate, one still finds the everlasting smile and concerned attitude that she has retained since becoming Involved with community affali j. The decision to seek political office came after working on several local campaigns and speaking on behalf of many political candidates, said Perez during one of several interviews with La Voz. Now Perez Is speaking for herself and voicing her concerns to the residents of District three, hoping that these concerns will help them decide which candidate Is actually their candidate. - •1 have to offer my experience, my background ln people kind of things. I want to provide a funnel for people oriented Issues, things which relate to the third district,* said the candidate and mother of seven. There have been many benefit functions held ln her honor ln Fresno County, displaying how the community has accepted her candidacy for the Fresno County Board of Supervisors seat. People can relate to Perez because they and that she relates to them, she Is aware of the many problems faced by the community whether they are social or economical, and she Is willing to deal with them. •We are still seeking volunteers to help ln various aspects of the campaign, and anyone wishing to help can contact the campaign headquarters by phoning 233-4-151 or by going to the headquarters at 1020 Dlvlsa- dero," said the CSUF instructor. Whether one volunteers one hour of their time or donates one dollar to her campaign, Perez displays her appreciation of their effort. In essence, whatever the outcome of December 9, there will be many winners, those who have come Into contact with Theresa Perez will find this out, and when they do, they will have gained much from experiencing that contact. Theresa has shown this whether she Is helping a student, speaking to a group of citizens, or becoming Involved with a community Issue . . . ln essence, Theresa Perez does care.
