First the California Republican Assembly vote of the membership only endorsed Gauny and then coming in second with a majority of the votes but not enough for 2/3 vote endorsement, Boydston. None of the three incumbents achieved a majority of the votes, much less an endorsement. Now only incumbent Weste can get a Republican endorsement from this very establishment organization. Wow! Even the local Republican establishment thinks change is needed at City Hall. When will our alleged 'local paper of record' (TMS), come around that it is indeed Time for Change?

If it is a board decision only, this is an even greater disintegration of incumbency if one can’t get the establishment folks to get a consensus on incumbents.

Only board members can vote for Congress of Republican endorsements. I don't personally have voting "priveleges." Tim, didn't see you. Even with my serious ADD issues which cause me to be up and down and meander about during meetings like this, I never saw you. Of course, I do have a tendency to zone out so I could have been looking right at you and not known it.
