Why Support Tod?

I’ve known Tod for years now and one of the things I admire most about him is his commitment to doing what’s right and his integrity. He looks at situations rationally and always weighs the impact on the people involved.

- Jamie G. Dougherty

Tod brings passion, commitment, and a strong sense of value to his work, He’s the kind of person I’d want to have on the Albany City Council.

- Treve Johnson

[Tod is] outspoken and will keep us informed about what is really going on.

- Martin (Mac) McCurdy

I appreciate [Tod's] thoughtful and realistic stance towards issues of great importance to our town.

- Elizabeth Baker

I believe Tod has the necessary skills to be able to craft compromise between the various points of view in the Albany community so that we can go forward. Life isn’t black-and-white. We can find solutions that meet the needs of families, the business community, the schools, the environment, youth and seniors. All it takes is the willingness to work together. I support Tod for Albany City Council and believe he will be a rational, principled and effective leader.

- David Sanger

[Tod is] a pragmatic problem solver who is open minded & not an ideologue who is committed to representing a special interest group.

- Carol & Donald Mangravite

Tod is fair-minded and can get along with anyone.

- Tom Traynor

Tod’s open minded approach will be a definite asset toward the multiple challenges which lie ahead. I really like this guy and urge everyone to support his candidacy for City Council.

- Jack A. Rosano

There’s a time to talk, and a time to act. We need someone who isn’t afraid to make the hard decisions, while keeping Albany balanced between small town charm and a healthy economy.

- RJ & Dede Bruno

I have known Tod for several years through scouting. He has all the qualities-in abundance-to provide excellent public service to Albany: dedication; commitment; the right temperament; thoughtfulness; concern; consideration; and an intelligent approach to difficult issues.

- Mark Mallah

I’ve known Tod for over thirty years. He is a true man of honor with a keen sense of social and fiscal responsibility.

- Dr. Sunil Ahuja

My experience with Tod has mostly been through the Cub and now Boy Scout troops our boys are involved in. Tod is a thoughtful, considerate, and caring man who always jumps in to help. When he offers his opinion it is always well thought out and worth consideration. I think he would be a great Councilperson and would rest easy knowing he is working for our community’s best interest.
