Rishi Kumar stands with Batmobile’s Mark Racop
Supervisors should ask Sheriff Bolanos to resign too
Key Points: Â
KEY POINTS:
⦿ 4.3 million views: San Mateo County’s Bolanos-Batmobile Misuse of Power Caper story has swept the entire country and people are appalled
⦿ An honest man has been smeared: Mark Racop's business, and employee's livelihood shattered, and San Mateo County has been shamed
⦿ Rishi’s Congressional campaign is about Ethics-in-Politics: The continued silence of other elected leaders in Congress and the county condones these actions! Note: There are no Republicans on the congressional district 16 ballot this November
⦿ CALL TO ACTION: Forward the proposed email below [scroll down] to local leaders supporting the release of Mark Racop, and demand Sheriff Bolanos to resign!
Local corruption can happen right here under our nose. San Mateo County Sheriff Carlos Bolanos committed a severe error in judgment by sending a team of local deputies 2000 miles to Indiana to intimidate the world’s only licensed manufacturer of Batmobiles after a timeline dispute between a wealthy Atherton donor who had not yet received his Batmobile on time due to his late payments. Residents were shocked when an ABC7 News investigation by Reporter Dan Noyes shone the light of day on this case and it went viral. Â
Rishi’s stands with Batmobile’s Mark Racop: When the scandal broke Rishi was the first elected official to speak out against the illegal actions taken by the San Mateo County Sheriff Bolanos and the first elected to demand his resignation.
CALL TO ACTION: The People can’t condone this abuse of power. The continued failure of those in power to act against similar corruption makes them complicit.
We need to take action! Cut and paste the email below and you will help free the Batmobile’s innocent Mark Racop!

Subject: Restore SMC’s integrity & Free the Batmobile’s Mark Racop
Dear President Horsley and Supervisors,
Sheriff Bolanos’ blatant misuse of power and taxpayer dollars has shone an ugly spotlight on the county, and we ask you take the following corrective action:
⦿ Demand Sheriff Bolanos to resign
⦿ Ask District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe to permanently drop all charges against Mark Racop and
⦿ Unfreeze Mark Racop’s personal and corporate assets.
Please take immediate action to right this wrong!
Sincerely,
<YOUR NAME>

Rishi's congressional campaign stands for corruption-free representation. Join our Victory Kick-off and Rally later this month. RSVP here. It takes courage, integrity, and a people-over-profit perspective. Rishi has always stood strong against those who would use their office improperly.
Rishi’s track record: He fought against a proposition that deceptively increased Santa Clara County Valley Water Board terms. He was the only elected leader from 6 cities that has challenged the powerful San Jose Water Company - for their frequent rate increase proposals, stopping increases nine times.
Thank you for sending the above email!
