Political campaigns
In an election held June 5, 2018, Pierluigi Oliverio ran for the Santa Clara County Supervisor position in District 4 to replace the outgoing Ken Yeager. Oliverio is currently in 3rd place. Susan Ellenburg is currently first with 33.4%, Donald Rocha currently second with 20.86%, Pierluigi Oliverio currently third with 19.7%.[2]
In the day after the June 5, 2018 election night, it seemed that Oliverio came in by a slim margin[3] at second place for the primary election, but that 105-vote lead of lapsed into third place by the weekend when the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters continued its round-the-clock tally of provisional and mailed-in ballots.[4]
Oliverio ran unsuccessfully as a candidate for California's 17th congressional district in the 2016 election, coming in fifth place with 4.2% of the vote.[5]
Two months after losing his run for state congress, Oliverio filed papers in August 2016 to campaign for a seat on the Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority's board of directors.[6] He lost against the incumbent in District 4, Dorsey Moore, who won the four year term for 2016-2020.[7]
In 2014, Oliverio campaigned unsuccessfully in the mayoral race for the City of San Jose, California. He was eliminated from the race in the June primary coming in fourth with just under 10 percent of the vote.[8].
