El Paso mayoral candidate profile: Dean ‘Dino’ Martinez
- Number-one campaign focus?
Look after our City's budget, Vets, Police and businesses.
- What sets you apart from your opponents?
What I can say with absolute, is that our candidates have never served the United States of America. Everyone is expected to serve a nation that
protects you and your family and children.
- Relevant experience that qualifies you for the position you seek?
My service to the military, my career of service to the Department of
Defense. Why is it that anyone that completed or is cont. their mayor. That
vets don't really qualify here in El Paso as a politician or home reared in
El Paso Texas or the United States. I've never had anyone here say "Thank
You for your service" except Calvin Zielsdorf.
- If you had the chance to revoke one ordinance in El Paso immediately upon taking office, which one would it be?
Flowers, crosses and bikes.
- In what ways is City government on the right track, and in what ways does it need to change course?
Stop building parks, pushing for quality of life bonds.
- What steps can you or the city council take to increase transparency and the public's understanding about what's going on in the city?
Never close doors when using taxes upon contracting work.
- Are you in favor or opposed to the construction of the downtown arena in the Duranguito District?
NO!!! Leave history alone. Stop tearing down our History of El
Paso!
- Do you think local health and city officials have responded to the coronavirus pandemic properly?
Yes, as best as they have with Intelligence(medical) safety.
- Are you in favor of diverting some police department funding, reallocating it toward local social programs?
These are my answers. All funding must be directed to El Paso
Police/Sheriff. I will start reforming departments with Texas Governor
Abbott and call upon the Department of defense for all training and
equipment with support of City Manager/Police Chief Allen for replacing him with 2 fulltime El Paso Police Commissioners.
