In the Pink Panther series, Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau was trying on his hunchback disguise when the Commissioner suddenly called. "Good evening, commissioner," said Clouseau. "How are you, how is madame and all the little commissioners?" I'd like to introduce you to some of the little commissioners.
On one side of the ballot we have the Gang of Three, a trio consisting of Vic Mazziotti, Scott Ott and Lisa Scheller. The refer to themselves as a Reform Team, but strangely think that they establish their independence by walking in lock step with each other.
Brad Osborne is also running for LC Commissioner, but prefers to think for himself.
On the other side of the ballot, four Democrats (including incumbent Gloria Hamm) are in the hunt as well. I have brief interviews with each of them below. I tormented each one of them, of course, but liked them all very much.
The biggest surprise to me was Tim Waitkus, whose philosophy of reaching across the aisle is very much like that of Geoff Brace and me.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
