Gay Loopt employee running for Mountain View city council
Chris Clark, 25, is running for a seat on Mountain View's city council. Clark works as a senior operations managers at Loopt, a wireless social-networking startup notable for its large number of gay employees — Clark included. Local techies are pushing to get him elected. We give him good odds, because he'll bring three underrepresented communities to the council — the youngs, the gays, and the nerds.
