Here are a few excerpts:

"When we heard what he stands for, and perused the wide list of people who are endorsing his candidacy, how could we possibly not support Dom's candidacy? The most pressing issue on his political must do list is school overcrowding and the impact of development. As a teacher, he knows how important the quality of education is not only for our children, but for the future of California."

"With a political platform like Caserta's, it's no wonder so many Cupertino residents have jumped on his bandwagon."
