San Diego surfer leads for mayor
AP ^ | Nov. 4, 2004

Donna Frye, a surfer who sports long blond hair and refuses to get a driver's license, is riding a wave of write-in votes for mayor that could sweep aside two graying 60-something Republicans and carry her into City Hall. The surf-shop owner has capitalized on a confluence of circumstances, including a pension scandal that has shaken the city financially.

The votes have not been completely tallied, but so far, the write-in ballots lead with 35 percent of the vote; Mayor Dick Murphy has 34 percent. The write-ins are expected to be overwhelming in favor of Frye, 52, who said she is extremely optimistic she will win once all the ballots are counted.

Roger Hedgecock is on the case.
He's not one to quit or lose.

I HOPE she does not win...she and Murphy are part of the problem in San Diego...she is a useless city council man/person. I voted for Roberts.

Me too!!

If the courts get rid of her .. they should have a run off between Murphy and Roberts alone .. and then determine the winner. I'm hoping and praying this is what happens.

How can there be a write-in candidate in a run-off election?
