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.
California’s Election is underway and ballots must be returned by November 5, 2024. With a bunch of confusing ballot measures and hundreds of candidates running for office, voters can feel overwhelmed and lost.
This “Plain English” voter guide makes voting simple – especially when it comes to the ballot measures and local offices that do not allow candidates to disclose their party affiliation. Endorsements below are given only to candidates who “passed the test” on these crucial criteria: opposing taxes, fighting crime, improving schools, addressing homelessness, and securing the border!
2024 offers a real chance for a wave election to block costly tax hikes and elect common-sense leaders - but to do that we need your help in turning out your friends, family and neighbors to vote and share this easy-to-understand voter guide with them!
Reform California is organizing free events to help make voting simple, fun, and secure while distributing this voter guide to attendees. We can give you pointers on how to host your own event in your area, or attend an existing event near you!
Reform California needs volunteers to canvass their neighborhood and distribute the voter guide.
