Hi, I'm Pete Theisen, the anti-growth candidate, I paid for and approve of this message.

Vote for me, Pete Theisen on March 10, I am an ordinary guy. We have had all the ivory tower intellectuals we will ever need on the city commission, so-called experts who keep wringing their hands and telling you what we can't do.

We need to focus on what we have to do – and do it, we need to stop tearing people's homes down and building skyscrapers that stand vacant for years because traffic is impossible.

We need really good transportation built in Sarasota, not more unsold real estate.

We need jobs for Sarasota residents, not for illegal aliens who send their pay out of the country.

Vote for me, Pete Theisen, on March 10.
