Democrats,
With campaign literature flooding mailboxes, we wanted you to be aware that there are paid for Democratic voter guides being sent around that do not represent all the endorsements of the Democratic Party.

Please note we have officially endorsed the following candidates and ballot measures:
Salud Carbajal: US Congress-24th District
Monique Limon: CA Assembly-37th District
Bill Ostrander: CA Assembly-35th District
Gregg Hart: County Supervisor-2nd District
Eddie Hsueh: Sheriff-Coroner
