Raymond Caballero : ウィキペディア英語版 | Raymond Caballero Raymond Caballero (born February 6, 1942) is an American attorney and politician. He was the mayor of El Paso, Texas from 2001 until 2003. He was elected in May 2001, defeating former mayor Larry Francis in a runoff election with 62.5% of the vote.〔(Lubbock Online, May 28, 2001 )〕 He was the fourth Latino mayor of El Paso, following Raymond Telles (first elected 1957), Ray Salazar (1977) and Carlos Ramirez (1997).〔(San Antonio News-Express, June 5, 2001 )〕 ==Policies== Caballero ran for mayor on a progressive platform in favor of expanding public transportation and municipal parklands, and bringing renewal to long-neglected areas in the central city. Caballero became controversial for his criticism of local industries and home developers for alleged practices such as urban sprawl and pollution. Initially, Caballero had wide support, however over time voters increasingly questioned his stand, as El Paso is a relatively poor and economically disadvantaged city, and many felt the industries that Caballero opposed brought needed jobs. Caballero was defeated by Joe Wardy, a businessman, after one term in office. Caballero's supporters continue to form a strong faction within city politics.
