It looks like we are going to be stuck with Tom Daly as our Assemblyman in the 69th Assembly District, with the news we broke today that his opponent, Jose Moreno, has withdrawn from the contest after being threatened with the loss of his job, via the federal Hatch Act.
But Daly is going to be toast in two years – and there will be no shortage of viable candidates available to take him out.
So who will defeat Daly in two years? Here are the top contenders:
So who is out of the running? Santa Ana Council Member Michele Martinez for sure. She had her shot in June – raised a lot of money and just about came in last. She will at this point be lucky to hang on to her Council seat in 2014.
Julio Perez is done too. I am told he regrets running this year and won’t do it again. Good!
Nor do I see Santa Ana Council Member Vince Sarmiento running. He apparently wants to run for Mayor of Santa Ana in two years. Good luck with that.
One guy who won’t be running for the 69th A.D. in two years is Santa Ana Council Member David Benavides. He will be defending his seat – but he will surely lose as Mayor Miguel Pulido will definitely be working to remove this backstabber from the City Council.

Eric Alderete will win this one running away. He is twice as smart as the others on the Santa Ana city Council and will crush them.
If Daly takes that seat, he most likely will hold it for the full 12 years, and then a Veit will take it from there on.
Of course redistricting will happen again and maybe the Latino's wont put all of their eggs in one basket again.
The only way Daly hangs on is if too many Latino candidates run in two years. That won't happen again. There will be a consensus challenger and Daly will be forcefully retired.
Good riddance we need some one new at the office. At this point well even take his troll right hand "man" Renee Ramirez. Even with a lack of education. At the very least she won't flirt and promote the cute idiot girls at work.
Daly will have Disneyland and the Democratic Party and all the money. The only hope the Latino's would have in overcoming that mountain would be to vote 100 percent republican.
You really need to look at the 69th AD demographics. In two years there will be even more Latino voters. Daly will be done and Disney has already been discredited in this year's Anaheim Council races. The people of Anaheim are on to Mickey's shenanigans!
