"I know that California can do better,"
"We've proven in San Jose that when we focus on the most important things and hold ourselves accountable for delivering results, we can really make progress for our residents. That's the spirit we need in Sacramento."
"business as usual"
Matt Mahan, 43, announced a run for governor of California less than six months before the June primary. He said frustration with "business as usual" in Sacramento and a crowded field lacking bold, solutions-driven vision prompted his decision. Mahan emphasized San Jose achievements under his "back to basics" agenda, citing blight reduction, decreased unsheltered homelessness, and improved public safety. He positioned himself as the only current mayor of a large city in the race and a moderate Democrat who has frequently broken with his party on crime and homelessness. He has hosted other candidates to evaluate pragmatic approaches to homelessness and found none meeting his standards.
