Primary Results Put GOP in Position to Battle for Fall Victory


California Republicans broke the Democrats 2/3 majority in the State Legislature with the successful recall of Democratic State Senator Josh Newman and election of former Assemblywoman Ling Ling Chang to the State Senate. This brings the number of Republicans in the State Senate to 14 - enough to block the 2/3's vote requirement to raise state taxes.

This win sets up the battle this fall to keep or expand the GOP presence in the State Legislature to prevent Democrats from pursuing their relentless effort to increase the tax burden on hard working Californians.    
 



Rob Poythress, a businessman, farmer, and county supervisor, is running in Senate District 12, a race with statewide significance. After breaking the Democrats' two thirds supermajority in the State Senate in June, Republicans need to hold this swing seat to maintain their position.

Poythress says "The good people who live in our communities deserve better from our political leaders. And that's why I'm running for State Senate."        read more
