All candidates were considered and the Mercury News / East Bay Times newspaper endorsed Raj Salwan as best choice to replace Lily Mei for Fremont Mayor.
Here is the editorial:
Select Raj Salwan as your Fremont Mayor
With current Mayor Lily Mei stepping down because of term limits, four candidates, including two with City Council experience, are rushing to fill the void.
Raj Salwan is the standout. Finishing his eighth consecutive year on the council, he must give up that seat because of the city’s term-limit rules. But he is free to run for mayor and is the best person to replace Mei, sharing her moderate, fiscally restrained politics.
A veterinarian in the city for 25 years, Salwan understands the city’s finances, the challenges of reducing homelessness and the realities of providing affordable and market-rate housing.
Salwan has attracted a long list of local, regional and statewide supporters from across the political spectrum that includes labor and business leaders. It’s a testament to his practical approach and hard work on the council.
His leading challenger is Vinnie Bacon, who served on the council from 2012 to 2020, when he mounted an unsuccessful bid for county supervisor. Bacon is smart but sometimes polarizing. His council tenure was notable for his opposition to development on the northeast side of the city.
Rohan Marfatia, the CEO of a tech consulting business who has lived in Fremont about six years, has no experience on city boards or commissions and struggled to answer questions about the city’s budget.
The fourth candidate in the race, Hiu Ng, ran unsuccessfully for the Fremont Unified School District board every two years from 2012-20. He declined to participate in our interview process.
