Campaign 101. Usually endorsements are not worth more than the one vote they represent. Others, signify some power and access to groups of stakeholders.
James Gallagher is a conservative that has campaigned with Kevin Kiley all over California – and has sued Gavin Newsom successfully a few times. Gallagher matters.
Up next is Gentleman Jim. My guess is that Patterson is going to scoop up the influential endorsements and those will contribute to a prohibitive money and support advantage (that 15,000 Facebook Likes just can’t buy).

It’s like the chicken and the egg….Which comes first, the endorsements or the money? But when Nielsen and/or Gallagher are involved you can expect that behind scene there is a ‘Chicken Rancher’ named David Stafford Reade.
Patterson seems very solid.
Can’t help but notice Josh Hoover doing events with that other candidate.
