Doug Linney for EBMUD Director Ward 5

I've known Doug Linney for 9 or 10 yearsin his capacity as a campaign consultant who often helps environmental and other public interest groups to win ballot measures or legislation. He's been effective at that for 30 years and he's been effective on the EBMUD Board for the past 8 years. He deserves re-election and should win easily.

His opponent is Susi Ostlund. Her website gives no indication that she's up for the job (although she's got a cool yellow bike).
