Enhancing Riverside's quality of life and ensuring safety of all have been a passion for Patricia for decades. Riverside's firefighters proudly support Patricia for Mayor because she has the vision and commitment to make all our neighborhoods safer.
Patricia is an inclusive coalition builder who knows how to balance all sides of an issue. She is what is needed now, more than ever, in our divisive and challenging environment. Patricia works across the aisle with ease, focusing on solutions, not ideology. She is what Riverside needs now.
Patricia is the candidate with the necessary experience to continue moving Riverside forward. As mayor, Patricia will ensure all Riverside residents have the opportunity to prosper and raise their families in safe, thriving neighborhoods.
Patricia’s commitment to building consensus among diverse stakeholders is only matched by her ability to deliver results.

I have worked with Patricia for a decade on the RUSD Board of Education. She has impressed me with her no-nonsense approach to issues and her ability to get to the heart of a matter. As Mayor of our city, I can see her being the strong leader we need. Patricia will be a mayor we can all be proud of.
Riverside families need a mayor who will prioritize education and housing affordability, without jeopardizing our quality of life. Patricia Lock Dawson is the right person for the job. She has committed her life to advocating for our children, protecting our parks and open spaces, and finding common sense solutions. Please join me in supporting Patricia for mayor.
Patricia has a heart for Riverside families and for doing the right thing. Most importantly she listens and is an advocate for justice. Patricia is the candidate that will be the inclusive mayor we need. She’s humble and hardworking. In simple terms, I’d rather have a do-er than a talker.
Navigating the city out of its budgetary morass will take somebody with business moxie, extensive experience working with state and local entities and persuasive abilities to bring along a sometimes lackadaisical council. For Riverside, Patricia Lock Dawson is the best suited to do that.
Riverside, and our larger society, are in a time of great challenge and change. We need a mayor that will be a reliable voice to cut through the challenges, find common ground, and bring about meaningful change. I have known Patricia for over a decade and am confident in her abilities to be the inclusive leader that will bring the right people to the table to uplift our community and get the job done for Riverside.
