I have had the great pleasure of working with and learning from Mike for more than 5 years. He is a natural teacher, leader and inspiration - his gentle guidance, deep compassion, keen intelligence and humble wisdom are desperately needed on our beleaguered City Council. Mike would be just the invaluable and powerful asset we need to finally jump-start the political scene into the land of justice, fairness and integrity. Mikeu0027s qualifications are unimpeachable. And he is a very approachable, amenable, kind human being. He understands the value and importance of collaboration; of the art of listening. A vote for Mike is a vote for righteousness.

I, Ceylan Ergun, resident and fan of Portland, am in full support of Mike DiNapoli and his vision for our wonderful city, as they match the forward-looking, pacifist, yet practical ideas my circle has. I admire Mike for his integrity, honesty, and hard-working nature and believe he will be instrumental in helping rebuild the Portland we all miss and are so proud of. Mike is not just an idealist but someone who gets the work done. Which is hard to come by in politics. Mike comes with a versatile set of skills and experience that gives me the utmost confidence that he is the human for the tough job. He chooses to put his hand under the stone and fix things with a logically thought-out plan. I am also familiar with his close support system and I am certain the brain and work power around him are unparalleled. This will be his biggest asset moving forward. For the first time in years, I am feeling very hopeful for Portland.

Mike Dinapoli is an excellent choice for City Council. Mike will be the type of leader that will listen carefully to all sides of the issues that we are currently facing and will work hard to collaborate with his fellow council members to make the best choices possible for all of us.

Mike has been a friend and colleague for several years, and he is inspiringly pure of heart. He works hard, treats people right, and creates an environment where people thrive. He's been in Portland long enough to know what to do to fix our problems, and he will absolutely get the work done. District 4 can't ask for a better candidate. Get this guy in office so we can turn things around!

I’ve known Mike for over a decade and I can say without reservation that he is one of the hardest working, innovative, kind, and talented individuals I’ve ever met. He would make an outstanding City Council member and I am honored to offer my wholehearted support to his candidacy.
