San Diego CityBeat: David Alvarez for mayor

When it comes to whom we're endorsing, there ain't much suspense. We endorsed Alvarez in the primary, and he's still in the race, so he's still our guy. Alvarez would lead from the bottom up. He'd make decisions based on what's best for the middle class and those who are struggling to join it. As he's shown in Barrio Logan, he'd have the backs of neighborhood residents when they need equal access to services or are up against powerful interests. He'd also be far better than Faulconer at forging a path toward a more sustainable and energy-efficient San Diego, and, unlike Faulconer, he'd be an advocate for the city's professional land-use planners.
