Casas is retired U.S. Army Colonel. He is SPOT-ON re: the issues that concern Conservatives (as highlighted on “Criteria” page). He believes allowing illegals a “pathway to citizenship”, is NOT right. Like all immigrants, they need to apply.

GOALS: He says, need to “work to SECURE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER, . . . IMMIGRATION REFORMS that prioritize National Security. . . .In sports, I advocate for fairness by ensuring that BIOLOGICAL MALES ONLY COMPETE against counterparts, . . . . and will address inflation promptly. To stimulate economic growth, I propose TAX CUTS, reduction of bureaucratic RED TAPE and EXCESSIVE REGULATIONS on small businesses, allowing the FREE MARKET to recalibrate itself. “

CASAS’s OPPONENT, Dem HILDA SOLIS, is a life-long LIBERAL DEM politician, who is infected w/incurable “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS), hates ICE, is a pro-abort, who served as OBAMA’S Sec of Labor, and is supported by a ton of liberal and controlling unions, and endorsed by DEMOCRAT Party.

2 Republican INCUMBENTS (YOUNG KIM and KEN CALVERT) emerged from primary in top 2 slots.

I recommend KEN CALVERT. While I think he has been in congress too long (33 yrs, we need term limits!), CALVERT has consistently voted conservatively, and has been a solid TRUMP supporter. Additionally, w/ longevity, comes good committee assignments, an advantage. He is endorsed by Riverside Republican Party, REFORM CA, CA Republican Assembly, Lincoln Club of OC, State Senator TONY STRICKLAND, Assemblywoman KATE SANCHEZ, OC Supervisor DON WAGNER, RSM Mayor, TONY BEALL, and a slew of other known conservatives.

Congresswoman, YOUNG KIM (contrary campaign literature) has “NOT” always been a TRUMP supporter. During impeachment stuff in 1st term, KIM voted to “CENSURE” Pres Trump (though she stopped short in voting for his impeachment). And, some of her votes were NOT conservative.

Businessman that wants to help “drain the swamp”. Endorsed by Republican Party of OC (OCGOP), REFORM CA, and others.

NOTE: Please DO NOT VOTE for “Left-Liberal, LINDA SANCHEZ, who moved from Dist 38 to run here. SANCHEZ aligns herself with the DSA (Democratic Socialist of America) in her votes. Example: She was AMONG 53 DEMOCRATS who VOTED “AGAINST” DECLARING IRAN the “WORLD’S LARGEST STATE SPONSOR of TERROR” on Mar 5, 2026.

Conservative “R” running against a very liberal incumbent. Endorsed by CA Republican Assembly, REFORM CA, OC Congress of Republicans, and others.

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT VOTE for very liberal Democrat, ROBT GARCIA, who is endorsed by liberal groups/individuals, including abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, Democrat Party, and is 1st openly Gay Immigrant in Congress.

VO is an EXCELLENT candidate, a solid Conservative who has the best chance to FLIP this seat. Endorsed by Republican Party of OC (OCGOP), REFORM CA, and many others. Former Mayor of Cerritos, retired 28 yr law-enforcement officer. VO is a legal immigrant from Viet Nam. VO does not believe “illegals” living here now, should be granted a “pathway to citizenship”. Go back, and apply legally. He supports the Pres Trump’s agenda, and stands for virtually all the values I list in my criteria.

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT VOTE for very liberal Democrat, DEREK TRAN. He is endorsed by a myriad of liberal groups/individuals, including abortion provider, Planned Parenthood.

Republican, DAVID PAN, changed his party affiliation 2 yrs ago, after becoming disenchanted w/ the DEMOCRAT PARTY, especially in the areas of EDUCATION (he supports School Choice for Parents), and Democrat runaway Government spending. Supports Secure Borders. Is a FISCAL Conservative, but not a SOCIAL Conservative. But, PAN is far better than liberal opponent who is neither. Pan is the son of Taiwanese Immigrants, is very bright, w/degrees from Stanford & Columbia, and currently a professor at UC Irvine. He is endorsed by Republican Party of OC, Conservative Patriots of OC, conservative CA Republican Assembly, and REFORM CA.

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT VOTE for very liberal Democrat, LOU CORREA. He is endorsed by tons of liberal groups/individuals, including Abortion provider, Planned Parenthood.

Le Roux is a business owner, w/ a BA in Economics, and an MBA from Columbia Business School. She is also the Executive Director of CAL DOGE, a group that works to root out waste, fraud, launched in early 2026 by Gov Candidate, HILTON. Le Roux is a staunch conservative and politically polar opposite of her 2nd cousin, progressive DEM Governor ABIGAIL SPANBERGER of Virginia. Endorsed by Republican Party of OC (OCGOP), REFORM CA, the OC Congress of Republicans, and CA Hispanic Republican Club and many others, including my favorite pastor, PASTOR JACK HIBBS of Calvary Chapel, Chino Hills.

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT VOTE for very liberal Democrat, first-term DAVE MIN, who rec’d a DUI conviction in 2023, but somehow still pulled off a win in ‘24. As part of his sentence, he was put on probation for 3 yrs, so still likely on probation. THIS SEAT IS FLIPPABLE!

Kurdian is a retired U.S. Navy captain with 25 years of service, and has been senior systems engineer and vice president of operations at Mayflower Communications. Kurdian's campaign focuses on issues such as lowering living costs, supporting small businesses, and enhancing public safety. He is endorsed by CA Republican Party, CA Republican Assembly, Lincoln Club, Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Assoc, American Independent Party,

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT vote for DEM incumbent, Mike Levin, who is endorsed by the Democrat Party, abortion provider Planned Parenthood, Jane Fonda’s Climate PAC, “SHIFTY” Senator Adam Schiff, and a whole slew of other liberals. Levin has severe TDS, and opposes everything Trump supports.

HILTON is the “COMMON SENSE” Governor we DESPERATELY need to lead CA. It’s past due time for a change. Click Hilton’s site below for his CA Plan.

Our state has been ruined by the Democrat stronghold on leadership, including their insatiable “TAX & SPEND”, addiction, which is why so many are leaving. CA has the highest income tax rate in the nation. The highest statewide sales tax rate. The highest gas tax. Highest everything! Now, we are finding, we likely have the highest in Gov FRAUD & WASTE, too. A vote for Hilton’s opponent, Xavier Becerra would just be more of the same.

And she is on the STEVE HILTON “Golden Ticket” slate which helps provides visibility. Also, ROMERO has been in Sacramento as a “D”, now and “R” and knows the legislative process well, to HELP HILTON. The rest of the slate along w/HILTON & ROMERO, is fabulous, that is, R-HERB MORGAN for Controller, and fabulous/outstanding/terrific, Michael Gates for Attorney General.

MICHAEL GATES will make a FABULOUS CA Attorney General, as he has the necessary experience to do an EXCELLENT job! He is fiscally and socially Conservative.

BACKGROUND: City Attorney for Huntington Beach, a position he 10 yrs. In 2025, he was called by the Trump Administration to the Dept of Justice (DOJ), where he was appointed Deputy Asst Attorney General in the Civil Rights Div, where he oversaw about 100 attorneys across Employment, Voting & Elections, Housing & Civil Enforcement, & Criminal sections. He left that job to run for this office, and return to CA, wife and 5 kids.

He has ALL the important endorsements, CA Republican Party, CA Republican Assembly, REFORM CA, Lincoln Club, American Independent Party, police & sheriffs' Associations, and individuals, like PASTOR JACK HIBBS of Calvary Chino Hills, STEVE HILTON-Gov Candidate, DON BARNES-OC Sheriff, JON VOIGHT-actor, ALEX VILLANUEVA-Former LA Co Sheriff, STEVE GARVEY-former Dodger & former CA Senate Candidate, and virtually every elected Republican official in CA.

Republican Wagner, is current R-OC Supervisor, former Mayor of Irvine, and former CA Assemblyman. Wagner is a solid conservative, though some were disappointed he did not take more of a lead for Vote/Election integrity in OC, as a Supervisor. However, in this position of SOS, he will have a REAL opportunity to solidify “ELECTION INTEGRITY” in CA. Republicans desperately need to flip this seat RED, to better oversee elections, and overcome the incompetence and partisan slant of DEM Shirley Weber. WAGNER’S Endorsements are: CA Republican Party, Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association (protects Prop 13), and REFORM CA, and more.

OPPONENT: Please DO NOT VOTE for incumbent, who needs to be “RETIRED”. 77 YR OLD”, SHIRLEY WEBER, who OPPOSES providing ID. She has also been criticized for how ballot initiatives are “TITLED”, misleading Voters.. Weber is extremely an liberal Democrat, endorsed by lots of liberal groups/individuals, including Abortion Provider, Planned Parenthood.
