The absentee ballots were sent to Santa Ana voters this week. So now it is time to vote! This is an important local election as the City Council majority is at stake. Our current City Council majority is trying to fool the voters into giving them a 700% raise via Measure PP. Needless to say […]
SAUSD School Board candidate Mark McLoughlin appears to be trying to hide his financial information from the public.
