PEOTTER'S PICKS
THIS GUIDE IS A TOOL
Updated 5/7/2022 – I will update from time to time
Many people ask for recommendations for voting because of my involvement in politics. I am not trying to tell people how to vote I am merely sharing my opinion which is generally based on my Christian/Conservative/Rupublican (in that order) worldview, first-hand knowledge of the candidates or the issues.
I invite you to use this as one of your resources for your own research before voting.
ARE YOU MAD AT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE COUNTRY?
Voter Turnout is Everything
Remember, California has a "Top 2" primary system and the top 2 vote getters from June (regardless of party) move on to November. In some of these races we end up with 2 Republicans in November (or 2 Democrats). This really could depend on whether we turn out to vote.
Republicans are motivated to change. Democrats are generally embarrassed about this administration.
A great Republican/conservative turnout can help win in school board races and perhaps catch a Dem sleeping and have 2 Republicans on the ballot in November rather than a Dem and a Rep. BTW, Don’t tell your Dem friends about this….
JUST A WORD ABOUT VOTER FRAUD.
Is or Was there Voter Fraud in 2020? We have Tax Fraud, we have Bank Fraud, of course we have Voter Fraud. You would have to be an idiot to think there isn't any voter fraud. The question was always "is there ENOUGH VOTER FRAUD to change the outcome of the election?"
I believe that there was enough fraud in 2020 to change the outcome. I believe that it will become clearer in the next weeks. for example, check out Dinesh D'Souza's new movie "2000 Mules" at https://2000mules.com.
Many Voters like to vote in person, I encourage that. Just make sure that you vote.
Here are voter fraud solutions that are simple and recommended by many reform groups:
1. Vote on one day only (election day would be nice)
2. Vote in person with minimal exceptions (No absentee ballots, unless you have a hardship)
3. Show voter ID in order to vote.
4. ONLY paper ballots with electronic (counting machines only) that are NOT connected to the internet.

Governor's RACE
There are several Republicans running for CA governor. I like Brian Dahle, Anthony Trimino, and Jenny Rae Leroux. They would all make great Governors and all would be better than the over-control, power hungry, grease head current governor Gavin Newsome. Mask mandates, open schools, gas taxes, traditional families, emergency powers, you name it, Newsome is on the wrong side of the issue.
Brian Dahle as the current minority leader in the senate, is probably the most likely to give Newsome a challenge, but it will be next to impossible in this blue state. Brian is a conservative and pro-family and has out-raised all his challengers. You might think in an ideal world that electability would not be part of the equation, but what good is a candidate or your vote for that candidate, if they cannot get elected.

Rachel is really talented and pro-family. She has taken on the voter fraud of the 2020 elections. The SOS is the statewide office that makes sure that the elections are fair and accountable.

BOEqualization 4th District |
ERIK PETERSON |
Erik is a Huntington Beach City Councilman in his 2 term. This Board of Equalization position is as a taxpayer advocate. The State Legislature has stripped this office of much of its duties. What we want here is a candidate that will take the fight to the legislature and stand up for taxpayers. Utilize his staff to educate and inform the legislature. Erik is that guy. He has a history of standing up to the liberals on his council and has great grass roots support. |
Superintendent of Public Instruction |
LANCE RAY CHRISTIANSEN |
Lance came from a think tank and understands how the public school system has not only gone astray but is actually pitted itself against parents and their wishes. Lance is very pro-family, pro-parent's rights and understands with the code says and how to fight bureaucracies. |
FEDERAL RACES
U.S. Senate |
Mark Meuser |
This is the seat vacated by Vice President Kamila Harris. Long time democrat Alex Padilla was appointed by Newsome. This has a "Partial" seat and a fulltime seat. The partial seat is literally for 30 days. The full time seat is the important seat. Longshot to unseat Padilla in such a blue state, but with a giant RED Wave anything is possible. |
38th District: |
Eric Ching |
Mayor of Walnut with a small part of OC in his district. |
40th District: |
Greg Raths |
Greg is a retired USMC Colonel, conservative, pro-life and strong defense guy, going against Young Kim. Young Kim (Republican) voted with Pelosi and the Democrats to support stripping fellow Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments |
45th District: |
Michele Steel |
Michele is our current Congresswoman who upset Harley Rouda in 2020. She is a great conservative. She was born in Korea, raised in Japan and moved to the US, where she witnessed in her parents business what regulations do to small businesses. She is a true taxfighter. |
46 th District: |
Christopher Gonzales |
Tough Dem district, but he is a good conservative, pro-life republican Hispanic, in a mostly Hispanic district, A long shot, but a great fit for the district. |
47th District: |
Scott Baugh |
Scott is taking on the very AOC type liberal, Katie Porter, |
49th District |
Brian Maryott |
Brian is going against a liberal Dem in this San Diego/OC district. Not as conservative as I would like but so much better than the Dem. He will do a great job in the Congress. In a really tough race as the San Diego portion of the district is not so conservative. |
CALIFORNIA STATE RACES
STATE SENATE
34th State Senate |
Rhonda Shader |
Value |
36th State Senate |
Janet Nguyen |
Janet is the Republican that replaced Republican Tyler Diep after he got elected 4 years ago and then proceeded to vote like a Dem. In fact the Dems almost didn't run a candidate here because Tyler was voting Dem. Janet stepped up and ran and beat Tyler in the March primary. She is a strong Republican, now she is running for Senate. |

Benjamin Yu |
Diane Dixon is the lead for this office, After serving with her for 4 years and seeing her disloyalty and self serving attitude I cannot vote for her. She is likely to win, but I am voting for Benjamin as a protest vote. |
73rd Assembly District |
Steven "Steve" Choi |
Incumbent, strong pro-family candidate, and a personal friend. Very liberal (AOC type) attorney and current Irvine councilwoman, Melisa Fox, is running against Steven. Fox is backed with a lot of money. THe Dems want this seat bad. They want to pad their super-majority in Sacramento. |
74th Assembly District |
Laurie Davies |
Diane is my former colleague on the Newport Beach City Council. She ran a great campaign in the primary against a fellow conservative and won, allowing her to go after liberal Laguna Beach Democrat Cottie Petry-Norris. Diane will be a huge step up. This will be a tough race as the district includes Democratic strongholds in Laguna Beach, Laguna Woods and UCI. |
ORANGE COUNTY RACES

Major battle over this board between liberals/teachers unions and the conservative majority. THese are 3 of the 4-1 majority that conservatives enjoy. This is the board that allows charter schools which the unions hate. |
