Last Minute Voting Tips
Election Day is upon us. The California Primary will narrow down pivotal races across the state. From governor to congress as well as city and county races. Californians have been turning in their mail in votes for the past month but if you’ve been waiting for election day, you have until 8 p.m. tonight to vote. For some last minute voting tips Vicki spoke with Kim Alexander on Monday, President of the California Voter Foundation.
CA Democratic Party Chair
The governor’s race has been largely a crowded field of indecision. What started as 10 leading candidates, narrowed slightly to 8. Six of which are Democrats, none of which received their party's endorsement for the primary. Chair of the California Democratic Party Rusty Hicks, joined us to talk about the governor’s race and the rest of the primary election.
CA Republican Party Chair
This Midterm has come with its share of quirks in California. Many people are finding themselves in a different congressional district following voter-approved Prop 50. The Governor’s race has seen two Republicans regularly polling in the double digits. Despite one receiving an endorsement from President Trump, neither received an endorsement from the California GOP. Chairwoman of the California Republican Party Corrin Rankin joined us to talk about the election and look ahead to the general.
Lavender Festival at IL Fiorello
Did you know that there are more than 1,400 varieties of olives in the world and most of them can be turned into oil? There’s a small, organic farm in Fairfield making the most of it. IL Fiorello began as a boutique olive oil business in 2007 and has grown steadily ever since. This weekend, they will highlight the diversity of their spring harvest through Lavender and Strawberry days. Ann Sievers is the owner and she joins us today to talk about how the business got started.
