I like Russ Bogh, I always have. But, I can’t help but think the Bogh name was the reason an unvetted candidate with next to no experience in public office was selected by the power-brokers in the Legislative Caucuses to be the anointed one in SD-23 to replace Mike Morrell.
She is running as Rosilicie Ochoa-Bogh, yet when she worked for the mastermind of Cap and Trade Chad Mayes, she was Rosilicie Bogh. Was the Ochoa the creation of her consultant?
I have long had an issue with the intelligentsia of the squish-moderate-rino GOP establishment recruiting disasters of candidates only because they check the right boxes on page one of the application. As a soon to be “Old White Guy”, I am 10000% sensitive to discrimination and choose to judge candidates based on 10 years of history and not the first page of their application. Rosilicie fails the ten year test for a variety of reasons. I can’t say with certainty that happened here, but you can’t help but ask the question – what’s in a name?
It looks like every family has a “Billy Carter”. In this case one of her relations who was nailed on a prostitution beef and was divorced within a year gave her some money. Rosilicie had to have known about this, and the whole family should have known this would be an issue. The democrats can and will use this in the fall should all the money the Oligarchy of Controlled Failure get Mrs. Bogh in to the runoff. (Or is it Ochoa-Bogh) If you do family-based political recruiting these are the things that happen.
Interestingly enough – in the AD06 Race in 2016, Cristi Beckstead-Nelson did the exact opposite of Rosilicie Bogh / Ochoa-Bogh. She was on voter rolls as Beckstead-Nelson but ran as Nelson. I guess names are flexible too in the efforts to create perceptions for the masses.
I got an email from someone in SD-23 with some other interesting points: (OB is referring to Rosicilie)
2. OB asked for and received an endorsement from bankrupt Banning Mayor Daniela Andrade, who bk’ed while in office – exceeding $220k in debt.Look at OB’s campaign page for this endorsement.
(Note: establishment darling Steve Manos in AD-67 BK’ed $1.3 Million while in office in Lake Elsinore)
3. Ochoa Bogh says she doesn’t support Prop 13 , however her family is in the school construction biz and they would benefit from the measureimmensely. (She also voted to put a massive bond on the ballot in her district – more on that soon)4. which may also the reason why OB took no position on Beaumont Measure B, a separate 98M school bond (for a city of 50,000 people)5. her entire campaign is boilerplate bs with only a generic message. In the few personal appearances she made, all she talked about was herfamily and the weathertoo many red flags with OB. Besides, I would never vote for anyone who was an aide to another politician

Can’t be trusted that’s for sure she will not get my book
