Dave Pine is an American politician and attorney serving as a member of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors for District 1, which includes the eastern two-thirds of South San Francisco and all of San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, and Hillsborough.[1]
Early life and education
Dave Pine was born in Massachusetts and grew up in New Hampshire, where his father worked as a professor and his mother was a teacher. He has two siblings.[2]
While a freshman at Dartmouth College, Pine ran for and won a seat in the New Hampshire House of Representatives and at age 19, was one of the youngest ever elected.[2] Pine served in the house from 1977 to 1979.[3] After Dartmouth, Pine attended the University of Michigan Law School. He was a summer intern at Fenwick & West in Palo Alto (now located in Mountain View). After graduating in 1985, Pine accepted a position at a corporate law firm, representing Silicon Valley start-up tech companies.
Career
Silicon Valley
Pine left Fenwick & West in 1990 to join a tech start-up called Radius, Inc,[2] and later worked for the tech start-up @Home Network.[4]
Politics
2002 California State Assembly election
In 2002, Pine ran for the California's 19th State Assembly district, and poured more than $762,000 of his own money into his campaign.[5] Pine called for campaign finance reforms including public campaign financing and for campaign donations under $1000 to be tax-deductible. His campaign was mostly self-financed. Pine criticized opponent Gina Papan for accepting a $365,000 campaign contribution from her father Lou Papan.[6] Despite outspending each of his opponents, Pine finished a distant 3rd place with just 19% of the vote.[7]
School boards
In 2003, Pine ran unopposed for a seat on the Burlingame School District Board of Trustees and served until 2006, when he was board president. In 2007, Pine was elected to the San Mateo Union High School District Board of Trustees.[citation needed]
2011 San Mateo County Board of Supervisors
Pine won the May 3, 2011 all-mail-ballot special election for the District 1 seat on the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors. Before the election date had even been set, Pine and opponents Richard Holober, Terry Nagel, and Gina Papan had already declared their candidacy.[8] Demetrios Nikas and Michael Stogner later entered the race. Final election results were certified by the San Mateo County Elections Office on May 9, 2011. Out of a total of 88,903 votes cast, Pine received 23,856 (26.8%), Holober 22,299 (25.1), Papan 21,796 (24.5%), Nagel 8,683 (9.8%), Stogner 6,269 (7.1%), and Nikas 2,870 (3.2%).[9]
