Apparently the Orange County Democratic Party Central Committee endorsed the following Santa Ana candidates yesterday:

  • Loretta Sanchez for United States Congress (Re-Elect)
  • Councilman David Benavides for Mayor
  • Eric Alderete for City Council
  • Valerie Amezcua and Myriam Tinajero for the Santa Ana Unified School Board
  • Jose Solorio, Nelida Yanez and Mark McLoughlin for the Rancho Santiago Community College District’s Board of Education

“Pulido had withdrawn his request for an endorsement shortly before the meeting, so the tally overwhelmingly favored Benavides. Thirty-four voted to back Benavides, while only three voted against it,” according to the Voice of OC.

Benavides may have gotten this endorsement but he is not raising any money or campaigning at all.  Strange.

  • Clearly David Benavides, and his advisors have read this blog.

    So the question NOW is, why not defend these "rumors"?

    BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RUMORS.

    David is a whoremonger. He is a liar and an cheating husband.

    The "advisors" who tell hime this won't go past this local blog are idiots. The OCR and the VOC are already on to his affairs.

    He will go the way of every other lying politico.

    A part of me hopes he wins, so I can watch everyone EAT him up. He is doomed. A JESUSFREAK who bails on his wife and kid(s) but posts about his "family dog".

    Hopefully, for Pablo (his REAL NAME) the OCEA has $250K to drop on ad's. Theres a fighting chance and some work for some press operators in south Santa Ana.......Oh what, he helped the go digital so instead of 6 guys working theres 1. Thanks David! LOSER
