Good morning everyone, hope everyone is having a wonderful summer as now it slowly ekes away and fall begins to meander into our lives,
We are now officially in the race for the mayor's position having turned the needed signatures for our name to be on the ballot for the September 19th, primary, we need to concentrate on continuing our door knocking portion of our campaign.

As you noted if you read the paper there are officially 6 candidates that will be on the ballot. Besides myself, you have a career politician, a pastor, a city council member and two up and coming young individuals who will have a great political career ahead of them., No I am not counting them out, this race could be anybody's once the votes are tallied in September.

There is one position that I can safely say that I have that none of the other 5 candidates can say, and that is that because of my 24 years in law enforcement working all areas of this city interacting with corporate CEO's as well as homeless individuals, plus my community activism for the past 18 years and now for the past 11 years, working for Educators Credit Union providing financial education again in all areas of this community, from businesses, churches, non-profit agencies and even in the correction systems has given me the opportunity to get to know the entire community like the back of my hand.

I can relate to people working in the fields, relate to individuals working in foundries, in the lawn care/snow blowing business because i have worked in those areas, plus I can relate to small business owners, have been or currently on boards which are made up of owners or CEO's of major corporation from the Racine and Kenosha area. And as you can see from the photos below that highlights what I have mentioned above.

So if you are really serious about changing the culture of city hall and bring transparency, seek ways to make city hall more efficient, and be accountable to our taxpayers by having an open door policy, then I would urge you and your friends to consider my desire in becoming Racine's next mayor.

Good afternoon everyone,
I want to thank all of you that have expressed your support for my bid to be Racine's next mayor. Many of you know me and many of you know me as a result of family or friends that have mentioned my name to you as a viable candidate for the position of mayor for Racine.
If some of you would like to find out a bit more about me, please do a google search for Wally Rendon or even my given name, guadalupe rendon, there you will find a bit more information about me as well.
As some of you may know or have heard or read, the Committee of the Whole selected the following dates for the upcoming special mayoral election.
1. August 3rd - Nomination papers can began to be circuated, we will need a minimum of 200 valid signatures to be placed on the ballet.
2. August 22 - Nominations papers with the signatures due.
3. September 19 will be the primary since it appears that there will be at least 7 people vying for the office.
4. Oct 17 - the two most vote getters will now be on the ballet as mayor for Racine.

Finally for those who have asked, how can I help?, Right now our most pressing is raising funds to compete with at least two that are being backed fiancially by the Democratic Party and the other the Republican party.
For us, $5,$10, $25 or whatever you can and are willing to help with will be greatly appreciated...one thing you will find with our campaign is that we will not be beholden to any interest party except the citizens of this great city!
Checks can be made to Friends of Wally Rendon and mailed out to 833 Lombard Ave. Racine, WI. 53402. Those of you that live outside the city and can't support me with a vote, we would welcome you financial support...thanks.
May you all continue to have a great summer.
Any questions concerns you can reach me at [email protected] or call me at 262-308-3543.
