Candidate Profiles: Francis Fitzpatrick and Nathaniel Sperling

Francis "Pat" Fitzpatrick is running for the district four seat of the city commission has the needs of the homeless on the top of his list. Fitzpatrick refers to his campaign as "the preferential preference for the poor." The reason for this is because he has decided to donate his campaign finances to assist charities who help the poor. Fitzpatrick declined to comment about issues other than those relating to the homeless.

Nathaniel Sperling is a true native of Gainesville who has lived and attended local schools since he was young. Sperling believes the city commission needs new blood and one who's willing to listen to his constituents and their concerns. Sperling says fiscal responsibility should be at the top of everyone's list and says he is the one people should depend on to bring a realistic approach to the commission. Sperling wants to focus his efforts to getting people back to work and providing for the needs of those who have been hit the hardest.
