Dear Friends,
You know me as your friend, your neighbor or your Napa County Supervisor. Starting today, you will also know me as a Candidate for the California State Legislature running for the 4th District Assembly seat.
This campaign will be a major endeavor, with the primary election next June and the general election in November of 2014. I will need lots of support and hope to be able to count on you to ensure our success. There has not been an Assembly Member from Napa County in more than 30 years and I think it's time for the residents of Napa County to have one of their own represent them in Sacramento!
The press releases have hit the news media throughout the region and I have included a copy of the release below this message. I have always appreciated the opportunity to serve the 4th District in Napa County and I pledge to continue the hard work serving the residents of the 4th District in the State Assembly.
Please call or email me if you would like to help out on the campaign trail - I hope to count on your support!
Sincerely,
Bill Dodd
Napa County Supervisor, Fourth District
Candidate, District 4 Assembly

NAPA COUNTY SUPERVISOR & SMALL BUSINESSMAN BILL DODD RUNNING FOR STATE ASSEMBLY
NAPA, CA—Supervisor Bill Dodd today announced his candidacy for next year’s race in the 4th State Assembly District. Dodd, a small businessman and Napa County Supervisor, cited job growth, education, supporting California’s aging population and the unique rural needs of the 4th District as his priorities if elected.
“I’m running to return California government’s focus to investing in its people, especially in our children’s future,” Dodd said.
“State government used to make smart investments, the kind that nurtured Silicon Valley’s creation,” he continued. “We can do it again. That means investing in schools, universities, transportation, and protecting our unique environment – the things that help produce good-paying California jobs."
Dodd, a Democrat from Napa County, also stressed his commitment to changing the political climate in the Legislature.
“For too long, the Legislature has put politics above progress,” said Dodd. “During my 13 years on the Board of Supervisors, we’ve tackled – and solved – major issues by bringing people together."
“Sacramento politics-as-usual imperils California’s future prosperity. I will bring a cooperative, problem-solving spirit to the State Capitol.”
Supervisor Dodd also serves on the Metropolitan Transportation Commission as well as the Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District.
Bill was born in Napa and has lived in the 4th Assembly District his entire life. He attended local schools and California State University, Chico. He went on to become a small business owner with Culligan Water franchises throughout the North Bay. Bill and his wife, Mary, have five children and two grandchildren.
The 4th Assembly District includes all of Napa and Lake Counties, most of Yolo County, and portions of Solano, Sonoma and Colusa Counties.
