The Republican Party of Orange County failed to recruit a candidate for the 69th Assembly District this year, so the incumbent, Democrat Tom Daly, probably felt he had a free pass in his reelection campaign. He was wrong.
Autumn Browne, a lifelong Libertarian and a public school teacher with over 25 years experience, was a write-in candidate in the June Primary Election and now she is on the November 6, 2024 General Election ballot. Continue reading
The 2018 June Primary Election is coming up on June 5. We have examined all of the candidates in Orange County. If you support the CA Gas Tax you will not like this Voter Guide. We are generally not supporting candidates who want to raise our taxes or who support the High Speed Rail boondoggle. Here are our thoughts about the candidates for local offices here in Orange County:
Assemblyman Tom Daly (D-Anaheim) won’t run unchallenged after all in the June Primary Election. He is going to face a challenger, Ofelia Velarde-Garcia.
I believe that Velarde-Garcia is a Republican. She works for the County of Orange as an Executive Secretary. She is also a notary public. Her ballot title will be “Orange County Executive Aide,” which is not bad. My guess is that Daly will try to challenge that title.
Daly represents the most Latino Assembly district in Orange County - the 69th Assembly District. It is a solidly Democratic seat, with 53% of the voters registered as Democrats. However 52.6% of the voters in the 69th District are Latinos. Continue reading

Developer fees were established to offset impacts to school facilities from new students generated from residential and commercial development. According to the resolution adopted by the Board, altering the definition of assessable space may limit the developer fees districts can receive from new development and may negatively impact school facilities.

Nick was stopped by deputies at about 2 a.m. Oct. 9 with campaign signs belonging to Councilman Scott Voigts in his car., according to the O.C. Register.
Nick ran as a carpetbagger candidate this November in the 46th Congressional District, which includes the Cities of Anaheim and Santa Ana - and is miles away from Lake Forest. Nick lost by over 14,000 votes to the incumbent, Loretta Sanchez. Continue reading
