Captain Paul Miyamoto for San Francisco Sheriff
Over 1200 people joined Captain Paul Miyamoto for SF Sheriff FaceBook Group in less than 10 hours! Join the Excitement!
We set up the group due to the overwhelming friends request I was getting. We initially thought the we would have 1000 members in our group in 24 hours, I was amazed with the response and excitement generated from our group. In less than 10 hours we had over 1200 members. More and more people are joining the Captain Paul Miyamoto for SF Sheriff Facebook Group. I believe the people of San Francisco want an experienced Law Enforcement Officer running the San Francisco Sheriff’s Department, not a politician or someone that will use it as a political stepping stone. The people of San Francisco want what they pay for, a quality law enforcement service.
This is a campaign which represents Experience and Not Politics!“
