My endorsements are public. They are noted here – http://ocpoliticsblog.com/o-c-voter-guide/. I have endorsed Emanuel Patrascu. http://joinemanuel.org/
But you Republicans should thank Karina for running as she will ensure that the other Democrat, Anila Ali, a dangerous liberal in the Agranista camp, will lose in June.
