ADDITIONAL VOTER GUIDES
Orange County Republican Party (GOP) Endorsements for the Nov 6, 2012 CA General Election
Robyn's Note on Prop 31: I disagree with the state Republican Party's and the Lincoln Club's endorsement of Prop 31. While the proposition contains some good elements, many of us feel the negatives outweigh the positives.
The following are recommending a NO vote on Prop 31: John Eastman; Congressman Tom McClintock; Craig Huey/Election Forum; Steve Frank/ CA Political News & Views; the CRA, Supervisor John Moorlach...
Lincoln Club of Orange County PAC – Voter Guide for the Nov 6, 2012 General Election
The Lincoln Club voter guide is a helpful election research tool; they are good on economic issues and union issues. However, not every Lincoln Club-endorsed candidate is necessarily a social conservative. Double-check this list with others.
Lincoln Club's Core principles: limited government, lower taxes, and the expansion of free enterprise. All candidates for cities and school boards who applied for and received the Lincoln Club's endorsement have signed our "Union-Free Pledge" in which they agree not to accept campaign contributions from public employee unions.
