Carl DeMaio and Reform California have released their “Plain English” voter guide to give you an easy-to-understand explanation of the ballot measures and to grade candidates.
WARNING! CA politicians have placed several deceptively-worded measures on your primary election ballot – and special interests are funding dishonest campaigns to trick voters and split the vote in key races.
Check out Reform California's “Plain English” Voter Guide below so you know what you are actually voting on – complete with ratings for all candidates on your ballot (including school board and judges) along with red flags on any measures with hidden tax hikes.
Worse, Republicans are at risk of being SHUTOUT of the runoff in several key races – and in other races special interests are backing tax-raising sellouts! That's why Reform California’s Voter Guide seeks to unite the common-sense vote behind the most viable principled FIGHTER in each race.
Review the guide below - and share it with your friends, family and neighbors!

STATEWIDE OFFICES
Governor: Steve Hilton OR Chad Bianco
Both Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco are good men and would make a great Governor. However, there is a risk of a shut out if Republicans split their votes - thus allowing two Democrats to advance into the runoff. While Reform California is not endorsing one candidate over the other, we strongly recommend that voters review the latest polling on this race to unite behind whichever candidate is in the lead and has the best chance to make it into the runoff.
