Via their alternates on the Placer County Republican Central Committee – the above three abstained on a resolution in support of the Current Republican Party Platform vs the new gutted platform put forth by liberal Billionaire Charles Munger… Those of...
That is where I am at. After all the crap – including Doug LaMalfa’s Chief of Staff single-handedly scuttling the results of a productive meeting last Wednesday – I am convinced that the situation at hand will never be resolved. The 4 person...
Peace? So much for peace. The mantra of David Reade / Mark Spannagel / Karen England – if you can’t control it, destroy it is still in effect. I got an email today from a livid Jon Green. Based on what he sent me – I can see why he’s angry....
AD01 – Has no incumbent and basically starts east and north of Auburn and goes to the Nevada border in Placer. The population center is Shasta County. So, look for someone from that area – Shasta is known as a home to a lot of more...

The day after the latest Bee Article – Doug LaMalfa was on the air (1380 KTKZ Eric Hogue Capitol Hour) repeating the same charges he leveled in the Bee Article. (namely, accusing George Park and Tom Hudson of committing felonies) Those charges are not...
Those of you that have observed Placer GOP Politics know that Doug LaMalfa doesn’t like George, Tom Hudson or myself very much. Several months back, I posted an apology on this blog to the Senator for crossing the line in political attacks in the 2010...
Karen England was endorsed by Doug LaMalfa and Ted Gaines in her failed 2011 run for CRA President – more on that tie in later. In 2007, Karen England was a CRA Vice President. She was involved with another employee of Capitol Resource Institute, Meredith...
