I’m Gordon Chester, and I’m running for San Jose City Council to bring that focus to City Hall: police and fire services that show up when you need them, parks families can enjoy, and a city budget that respects your tax dollars. I’ve spent my time in this community at neighborhood meetings, fire station openings and our local parks. Now I’m asking for your vote. 🗳️ Vote

Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
