I honestly believe he’d have a shot being elected.

Yup [emoji106]

My BIL retired in Yucca Valley as a a Battalion Chief.

Healthcare benefits weren’t part of his pension. But he discovered city council had great benefits (but little pay).

So he ran for city council for the sole purpose of getting benefits...and then he got the most votes.

And that’s how he became mayor of Yucca Valley LOL

"In breaking news, recently elected Mayor 'River Dave' has fired the entire city staff, and will immediately begin filling positions with members (inmates) from the forums on his popular boating website, Riverdavesplace.com."

I worked with him for years. One of the best guys around! No doubt he won.

That said Wheeler has been telling me this for years.. That I should get into some sort of local politics.

Om not sure how people out here that have an interest in Real Estate get to be on the planning commission but they all are.. I think I’d want to get into that if I was going to do something..

I’d consider running for Sherriff out here as it is an elected position. From what I have heard that can get to be pretty nasty business out here though as while you are running and if ya don’t win your life can be somewhat difficult.. lol

Mayor?? Surprisingly enough I agree with Hammer I’d have a better shot at winning it than some would think. I’ve lived here 9 years have zero enemies, and a pretty good name for myself. I’d say it’s possible.

I think you would make a helluva mayor. I think you are the unofficial mayor already.

Before the virus we kept our friends close and enemies closer. Oddly enough, they do the same.

Hermosa Beach elected Burgie Benz back in the 90's. <- freaking awesome! I could see Dave being elected in Havasu.

Friend of mine here in Glendora: Has an escrow office, a property management company, does commercial RE building (does houses for friends (like me)), AND is on the planning commission. Seems to work well for him.

Shit..... On busy weekends he already has more advertising out in the town than any potential candidate could hope for. I believe his name is on every bouy in Parker at least (I don't know about Havasu, never been on the lake.)

Lol.. none in Havasu.. I’m sure the Parker ones are gone by now as we didn’t run big batches of stickers for years..

I don’t want to have to wear a biz suit all the time etc... I used to wear a shirt and tie everyday and when I went to work for myself I said never again.. lol.

I’ll have to see your “pocket City” scores before pulling the lever.
