Rishi Kumar was the only politician...<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

...that had the fortitude to not only stand up for me when the ridiculous accusations were made against me, but he actually showed up in the court room to demand the charges be dropped. If he's willing to go that far to help a stranger in a far-off state, he's going to work even harder for you, in yours. I believe in Rishi, and you should, too.<\/span><\/p>\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I commend the consistent, supportive efforts of Saratoga\u2019s Councilmember Rishi Kumar in keeping Saratoga safe. His efforts in helping <\/span>initiate<\/span> more than 50 Saratoga Neighborhood Watch programs <\/span>is<\/span> essential in helping law enforcement personnel with the endeavor of keeping our children and community safe. Working in law enforcement for decades, I support Rishi's run for U.S Congress.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Rishi <\/span>Kumar<\/span> in holding leadership roles at Cisco and IBM<\/span>, Rishi<\/span> understands artificial intelligence and other <\/span>cutting edge<\/span> technologies. In his leadership on the Saratoga City Council and on the CA Democratic Party's executive board, Rishi brings a deep understanding of what our government can do to empower and provide opportunity to Bay Area residents. Most importantly, Rishi has great personal integrity. I know that he will always put the people he <\/span>represents<\/span> first and will work tirelessly to serve his co<\/span>nstituents. Please join me in supporting Rishi Kumar<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

With all the politicians running <\/span>for Assessor on their records of voting the party line, it is a challenge to find the person who has actually accomplished something. That person is Rishi Kumar. During his service on the Saratoga City Council, he initiated neighborhood watch programs that lowered crime in the city. When San Jose Water Company came to the Public Utilities Commission with exorbitant rate increases, he organized citizen opposition to those increases. He\u2019s worked tirelessly to hold the line on burdensome tax increases by insisting on optimization in city government.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
