A little about Larry in his own words: My name is Larry Turner, I am a lifelong independent, running for mayor. My wife Cynthia and I live in Ocean Beach with our two young children, and we love San Diego. After serving 23 years in the Marine Corps leading our nation’s finest through combat and humanitarian relief missions, I returned home to California and answered the call to serve our community. Eight years ago, I traded my camouflage Lieutenant Colonel uniform for SDPD Blue, and I still serve you today as downtown San Diego's Community Relations Officer.For years I have listened to our local businesses, community leaders, and our most vulnerable citizens in crisis. I have worked on their behalf to create a safer San Diego. I’ve learned how our city works from your voice, from the streets, up to City Hall. After working with our elected officials, I became disappointed by their lack of care and responsiveness to the needs of our community. I’m not a career politician and I refuse to become one. But, I know what good leadership is, and how a government is supposed to function. This isn’t working. I will be an independent voice that represents the citizens of San Diego, not a political party or soft-on-crime ideology. I’m here to deliver solutions only, to save the lives of our homeless struggling to survive (and our businesses alike), to return safety and dignity to our streets. San Diego can be a progressive, affordable, AND safe city–I promise to deliver just that.
