RSCCD Trustee John Hanna, who is also the Government Affairs Director/Special Counsel at Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters
John Hanna, a longtime member of the Rancho Santiago Community College District’s Board of Trustees, hammered through Union-Only Project Labor Agreements when the district passed two bond measures. Then he got hired, as a reward, as the Government Affairs Director/Special Counsel at the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters.
Now that union, the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, which received a $1.2 million dollar contract contract from the RSCCD for for ’16-17, has contributed $95,000 to elect Hanna’s awful slate of three horrible RSCCD Trustees (Arianna Barrios, Nelida Yanez and Claudia Alvarez) and their amigo Zeke Hernandez (a lifelong political hack) in the upcoming November General Election.

John Hanna, VP of the RSCCD Board and Government Affairs Director/Special Counsel at the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters
John Hanna, the V.P. of the Rancho Santiago Community College District’s Board of Trustees, is so desperate to hang on to power that he has unleashed his most corrupt associates in order to reelect the RSCCD Trustees who are up for reelection – and their ally Zeke Hernandez who is running for the seat that Jose Solorio vacated.

The race for the 37th State Senate District, which is being vacated by Mimi Walters, currently includes two right of center Republicans – Supervisor John Moorlach and Assemblyman Don Wagner. I doubt any more Republicans will jump into this Special Election but it is very likely that one or more prominent Democrats could run, on the premise that Moorlach and Wagner will split the GOP vote and make this a possible pick-up for the blue party.
Democrats that could run for the 37th include Irvine Councilman Larry Agran, who just lost his reelection campaign in November; Huntington Beach Councilman Joe Shaw, who just lost his reelection campaign in November; Anaheim Councilman Jordan Brandman (if he lives in Anaheim Hills); former Anaheim Councilwoman Lorri Galloway (who just lost in the Anaheim Mayor’s race in November); Tustin Councilwoman Rebecca Gomez (who was reelected in November); Costa Mesa Councilwoman Katrina Foley (who was elected in the November election) and Laguna Beach Councilwoman Toni Iseman (who was reelected in the November election).
