In California’s 169 year history, a Latina has never been elected to statewide office. Not one.
I am the daughter of an immigrant, raised by a single mom. I was elected to office as an advocate for workers and people like me.
At 14, I would help our local party register voters by setting up an ironing board in front of a grocery store. Thirty years later, I wrote the bill to automatically register every citizen who gets a drivers license.
Empowering people has been my life’s work — and as chief elections officer we can continue that by ensuring every citizen their right to vote and access to the ballot box.
There is no job I am better suited for than Secretary of State. I hope you will join us in this journey... and join us early.
