Hours left until election day.


I am prepared for my results either way.

Hoping for the best. I feel I have made a strong case to the voters.

Also rooting for Chuck DeVore to win the US Senate primary.

And for my friend David Hernandez to get a Central Committee seat.

David Hernandez takes Recall message to Arizona



A defiant David Hernandez -- offended by recent City and County actions to boycott Arizona for enforcing immigration laws -- decided to take things up a notch.

Hernandez, one of the leaders of Recall City Hall.org, was eager to share information with Arizona patriots that not everyone in Los Angeles agrees with the Socialist/Communist-leaning City and County leaders.

Hernandez appeared onstage at the "Phoenix Rising" rally on Saturday in Phoenix, Arizona.

Hernandez was happy to display to the crowd the Los Angeles County flag, which carries the original County seal. Hernandez is well known as a local political activist who sued the County for removing the religious cross symbols from their official emblem.

Hernandez added at the rally "We are a nation that is ruled by laws, not by men!"

Relaxed and confident, Jennerjahn golfs on Sunday



U.S. Congressional candidate Phil Jennerjahn was feeling relaxed and confident today about his chances for victory in the primary election to be held on Tuesday, June 8th.

In fact, he was feeling so good about his campaign that he decided to go golfing at Brookside Golf Course in Pasadena, California.

Jennerjahn believes that he has done what is necessary to achieve a resounding victory on Tuesday.

He knows his detractors and critics will make comments about his not focusing on the Recall or the election.

Jennerjahn assures them that a mail campaign for the Recall is about to hit over 400 businesses with petitions.

No on 14, 15, 16, 17 and Measure E

I'm voting no on all these measures for the following reasons.

"No" on 14 because it is a typical unproven idea.

14 could also lead to smaller political parties being eliminated from competition.
Elections could end up Democrat vs. Democrat... basically no choice at all.
With smaller political parties never making a final ballot, many of them would have no reason to exist.

"No" on 15

Public financing of campaigns could lead to an avalanche of unqualified candidates who are only jumping into an election to get their hands on public money. Bad idea. Bad, bad idea.
If you think you are worthwhile...get your own money to run for office.
Limiting spending is a limit on freedom. It is basically Communism, which is what the left really wants anyway.
No, thank you.

"No" on 16

I don't like the idea of governments injecting themselves into unnecessary situations, but I also don't like the idea that PG&E is the one spending all the money to promote this. Their benefit? It eliminates competition, allowing them to drive rates higher and make bigger profits. If small local governments elect people who unnecessarily get them involved in power projects, they can vote those politicians out and cancel projects.
Like most propositions, it is unnecessary.
We already have Constitutional limits on government power.
These limits are not followed because we have Socialist legislators in office.

"No" on 17

I also don't like the fact that Mercury insurance is selling their position on this as a way for voters to save money. It is also a way for them to crank up the rates on people who don't have an insurance history.
If they are paying to promote it, there is a huge benefit to them somewhere.
More government interference in the marketplace... which always makes things go sour.

No on Measure E

The LAUSD gets disastrous results with the money they already get. 50% graduation rates?
No, thank you.
Throwing more money at them will only lead to more money being wasted.
They have already shown that they produce an expensive, yet low-quality product.

James Andion sells out


Well, it looks like one of my opponents in the upcoming primary is a total sellout.
A morally "squishy" individual who will help support the enemies of GOP causes.

James Andion paid to get an "endorsement" from one of these cheap fly-by-night political hack mailer companies. Here is the proof in the photo above.

A bizarre mailer in which it says for Attorney General and US Senator "no endorsement".
Really?

That usually means that the mailing company was too low-rent and disreputable to get a check from the big players.

Vote for Abel Maldonado? He's the tax raising traitor who earned a payoff job as Lt. Gov. from Schwarzenegger. He should be in jail, not in Sacramento.
Many Republicans have openly denounced him and are widely supporting his opponents.

And to top it off, this mailer asks voters to support and vote for Propositions 14 and 15 !!


Prop 14 is the nightmare scenario for Republicans, a proposition that would keep many Republican candidates off of a final election day ballot. It would be insane for a party loyalist to support this proposition.

Looks like James Andion didn't get that memo.
He'll put his name on anything, I guess.

Memo to James Andion:

Don't carpetbag into my District with that weak game of yours.
If you can put your name on documents recommending policies that are the antithesis of Conservative ideology, and that directly contravene State Party policy on the issues, then you are not the right candidate for the 33rd.

Most of the votes are going to be absentee ballots, and they voted days and weeks ago.
In my opinion, you are a sellout. Voters can read, and will not be fooled.
I will defeat you on Tuesday.

Meg Whitman


On June 8th I am going to walk down to my polling place and vote in the primaries.

I am going to give Meg Whitman the exact same level of support that she gave to all the other Republican candidates who ran for office here in California over the last 28 years.

I won't be making a mark next to her name.

The way I figure it, she has earned it.

Raising money for the Recall, Hernandez heads to Arizona


For those of you who read this blog, please consider going to the website RecallCityHall.org and donating money to the cause. We have to raise more money to be successful.

We have hundreds of returned petitions and thousands of signatures, but it is not enough.
We need 240,000 qualified signatures to get city-destroying incompetent Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa on a Recall ballot for November 2010.

Right now, we are finalizing details for a direct mail campaign. We are going to mail the Recall petitions, along with an instructional letter and a return envelope, to thousands of voter households here in Los Angeles.

Bulk Mail permits and rates can get our numbers for postage more reasonable and clearly within the realm of possibility. If we can raise $50,000 , then we can mail out our Recall package to about 200,000 voting households. From those households, we expect returned petitions and their own donations to fund another wave of the mailings to registered voters. Ideally, we want to send a Recall petition to every single registered voter in Los Angeles. I think this is a goal that can be accomplished. We just need more money.

If we can mail a petition to every voter, the Mayor doesn't have a prayer of avoiding the Recall.

We have already had some generous donors, and I'll be spending the majority of this week raising money from various sources. I'm even going to go to the City union leaders and ask them to at least share their mailing list.

David Hernandez is headed to Arizona this week to meet with J.D. Hayworth. David is going to ask Hayworth to spread the message to his followers, who are strongly pro-SB1070. I sent a message to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer to encourage her to tell her citizens to donate to our cause. I'm not sure she will help, but she put a post on Facebook last night telling people to complain to L.A. City leaders about their nonsensical boycott of Arizona. I told her...forget the phone calls...get us some money and we will kick these fools right out of office. I'm going to start calling Arizona radio stations and contacting their newspapers.

If we get the money, the Mayor and all the Council members are in big trouble.

Many voters here don't particularly care for their "philosopher king" attitudes.

While the City is getting crushed by a budget crisis, they take valuable time to stick their big fat noses into the business of a sovereign State.

We need far fewer "philosopher kings" like this in our City government.

If we raise the money...there are going to be several job losses at City Hall.

The Spring Street 15 is one gang that needs to get put out of business.
