Everybody Hates Chris: The District 6 Election

This week in Everybody Hates Chris, covering the District 6 race: Everybody Hates A Blogger.

Alas, District 6 aficionados, Jordanna Thigpen will not be running for Daly's seat. Instead, she's running for the DCCCCCCCCCCCCC (sorry, we always forget how many Cs that has). Thanks for playing, Jordanna!

So who else is up? Well, according to the Sentinel, the following people have announced their intent to run in District 6: Nadia Cabezas, Matthew Drake, Rodney Hauge, Manuel Jimenez, Bobby Jordan, Andrew Rucker, and William Stewart. Of these candidates, the Wall noted that one has a blog! He's the one whose name is a hyperlink! Guess who we're profiling next!

Welcome, Manuel Jimenez! He's a former bike messenger, a former Marine, and an attorney for the State Bar of California. Watch out, Chris, looks like he also has a cute son! Jimenez is running as the "Quality of Life Supervisor," as outlined in his policy papers. You know we've got a short attention span, so we're skimming here, but it looks like 1) be nicer to the SFPD and 2) move Board of Supes meetings to 5 p.m. Any position on impeaching Bush, Mr. Jimenez?

Also, Jimenez provides links to a children's book he's penned ("Timo's Tough Trek To School"), some supportive comments from his mom ("I'm thrilled you're running for office!"), his drawings, and excerpts from his novel. You can also check out his campaign blog (where he comes out against Daly's homicide task force plan) and his personal blog too. Wow, that's a lot of websites. We see a Bay Blogger Thursday profile in your future, Mr. Jimenez!
