RE: June 5, 2012 Elections

Many people ask for recommendations for voting because of our involvement in politics. We aren't trying to tell people how to vote we are merely sharing our opinions which are generally based on first hand knowledge of the candidates or the issues and we invite you to use this as one of your resources for your own research before voting.

So, here are the PEOTTER PICKS: OPEN PRIMARY IS IN EFFECT

PROP 14 passed in the June 2010 Election, promoted by Charles Munger and others. This establishes an open primary. This was a "payback" to Liberal Republican State Senator Abel Maldonado for voting FOR tax increases in 2009. This means that everybody can vote for anyone regardless of party in the primary. Then the 2 highest vote getters go on to the November Election regardless of party.

MOST IMPORTANT RACES

Assemblyman Allan Mansoor (74th AD): This is a three horse race, Allan Mansoor the incumbent, Republican Party endorsed all around good guy, then there is the RINO (Republican In Name Only) Newport Beach Councilwoman Leslie Daigle, and Democrat Bob Rush. This is exactly what Charles Munger had in mind when he supported Prop 14. He likes it so much that he has personally given $360,000 to RINO Daigle along with the Dental Association to defeat Mansoor. It is important to get everyone to volunteer and to vote for Mansoor.

Allan has been fighting the good fight in 2 areas where Daigle refuses to go. First Mansoor has led the fight to reform public employee pensions (Daigle raised the $200,000 lifeguard's pensions to 3%@50, the highest allowed), second he has fought against taxes and has signed the no new taxes pledge. Daigle has refused.

This is a struggle for the party between the pro-tax moderates versus the tea party conservatives.

The district includes South part of Huntington Beach, all of Newport, Costa Mesa, Laguna

Beach, Laguna Woods and Irvine south of the 5.

But you don't have to be in the district to volunteer. Call the OCGOP at 714-453-0900 if you can help

Office Candidate Remarks
President Mitt Romney There is enough coverage on this. You don't need us to tell you that Barack is a disaster. But I would go further. Mitt Romney is our guy, He can beat Obama in a landslide. Mitt knows what it takes to do a takeover in business. That is exactly what we need this November. I was a Santorum fan and I have no problem jumping on the Romney train. This will be the difference in where our country goes.
US Senator Dan Hughes This is for DiFis seat. She should be put out to pasture, but we have a blue state. It really doesn't make much difference DiFi could die and would still win this seat.
Proposition 28 NO http://www.ocregister.com/opinion/terms-351396-years-prop.html
Revising Term Limits for Legislators This will start the clock over and all the legislators will dig in.
Proposition 29 NO Just one more tax
Imposes additional tax on cigarettes
Proposition A NO You shouldn't base policy on having one mistake by voters. The Board didn't do anything but perpetuate a bureaucracy with JWs replacement. The County replaced JW with a 30 year bureaucrat from LA County who doesn't even live in OC (she needed an exemption from state law) even though they had several excellent OC candidates. The people should keep the right to vote until the government shows they are willing to hire reform minded and innovative managers.
County of Orange-makes the County Public Administrator an appointed office from its current elected status
Proposition B YES The Board should lead us out of the public employee pension crisis by example.
County of Orange - requires the Board of Supervisors to enroll in the lowest pension offered by the county, not the highest.
