Ontario Voter Guide

Welcome to my 2024 General Election voter guide for Ontario, California.

We will do local races from state legislature on down.

Assembly District 53

Nick Wilson

Nick is a decent man who deserves a chance at this state legislative seat. With a heavy Democratic Party majority, we can afford to take a chance on him so we can have new perspectives on law-and-order issues and issues such as the price of gasoline.

Congressional District 35

Mike Cargile

Mike may be a different type of political candidate than most are used to, but he wants to make our district better. He is fed up with his opponent’s horrible policies on foreign affairs where his opponent wants to use the federal government to overthrow politicians in Central America. He is also not happy with the immigration issues which our current presidential administration has failed to vet many of our migrants. His opponent does not want people who are here illegally who commit crimes against police, fire and first responders to be deported in H.R 7343. Norma has been an apologist for open borders since she became a politician, and we need someone who can U-turn this ship around.

City Council Districts 1 and 4.

Personally, I am not pleased by either faction of the city council, but 2026 has time for us to choose better. I do not want progressives to be in our city council because they will be the next state legislators and congressional members that will represent our community.

I am not happy with the current faction either. We need a fiscal audit and work with the County Auditor and also private sector auditing firms to make sure our tax money is used effectively. If our tax money is not being used effectively, I would support a reduction of the sales tax increase.

I am not for Raquel due to the fact that I was not a big fan of her father. I am not supporting Luis because he basically threw poop at the Republican leaning electorate telling them that it’s a bad idea to vote for him. Joseph is an unknown quantity where I am led to support the status quo of Ontario for this election.

Debra Porada is my choice. For those who live in District 1.

Then we go to District 4, Norberto Corona has a law enforcement background, Andrea Galvan is going to be as left as Connie Leyva, Celina Lopez seems decent as a community activist, but I can see her being as progressive as Andrea. Daisy Macias seems to be more like a Baca Family type candidate that will not rock the boat. Jose M Nikyar may have signs, but he does not have a web presence or visibility to show the voters what is his agenda.

If I lived in District 4, I would either go with Norberto or Daisy Macias.

School Board Races

Some races were uncontested so they are not on the ballot, but I will list all the school board races that voters in Ontario, California will vote in.

Chino Valley Unified School District area

Trustee Area 1:

John Andrew Cervantes

Mountain View School District Bond

Measure H: NO

Special education advocate Maria Arias.

San Bernardino County Board of Education Seat C (Ontario portions of Chino Unified and Mountain View school district)

Maria Arias

Cucamonga School District Trustee Area 2 (area bordering Rancho Cucamonga eg: 4th and Turner)

Sharon Stein

The rest of the board got recently reshuffled and we need someone new instead of someone who has been there for 16 years and running on autopilot.

For disclosure just to note that I am assisting her campaign.

My Basic Resume

San Bernardino County Central Committee Alternate 2023-2024

Chaffey High School, Chaffey College, and UC Riverside graduate

Supply Chain Issues In Our State

California and the nation do deserve better. The misguided policies from our Democratic Party politicians are the reason why the Pacific Ocean has a sea of cargo ships waiting to dock at our ports. We need to repeal AB 5 which makes independent contractors who traditionally helped deliver cargo from the ports redundant. Legislators such as Assemblyman Freddie Rodriguez (D-Pomona) and Senator Connie Leyva (D-Chino) voted for this.

Opening the ports 24/7 is not going to solve the issue, we need truckers to help deliver the products. If we do not have the truckers, the ports will still be clogged. Our ports and the unionized longshore people will suffer when companies move the freight to the east coast. We need AB 5 repealed.

If we want to help working families and stop the inflation crisis of 2021, we need action in 2022. Call your Democratic Party legislators today.

Bad California Legislation

I understand we all want the Covid-19 situation to be resolved, but Sacramento is going to make the situation even worse. AB 455 is going to ask people to show their vaccination proof to utilize non-food and non-religious services and AB 1102 is about mandating people to be vaccinated to be employed.

These bills were not there from the beginning, they were carved out of other pieces of legislation at the last minute. Even though I am vaccinated, my health issues should be none of the business of our government, our employers and store clerks. I should decide when I want a covid-19 booster on my terms, not on state or federal terms.

The big concern I see is 60% of African Americans are not vaccinated and older people like my father are not going to carry a smart phone to show proof of vaccination which will cause issues.

Call and write your state legislators ASAP!

Facebook is a Rigged Game

If your not to the left of Kamala Harris, expect to get Facebook demerits and be sent to the Facebook gulag once or twice a year. Facebook is not a worthy company for Republican Party supporters to patronize because our time spent there is actually being used against us.

Now is the time to start using programs such as Telegram and Signal for communication instead of Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp.

Parler may not be perfect, but I may come back there. People need to consider other options and help decrease Zuck’s power.

Mega Thread on Mail in Voting

Links of articles to share to your friends and family. Instead of mailing in your ballots turn them in to the official county drop in sites or ballot harvest with your political party (in California) if you are not able to vote at the polls.

The Middle Ground on Face Coverings

Face coverings has been a contentious issue in our nation in dealing with the Covid-19 situation. One side believes that by covering ourselves up we will help prevent infection, while others are saying that face coverings are a threat to personal liberty.

Just because infections increased a day after the decision of San Bernardino County in late April does not mean we need to immediately go to a Los Angeles County type policy where you must have a face covering 24/7 except for driving your car when you are out of your home, but there should be a time and a place for face coverings. Exercising with a face covering is stupid because it inhibits your breathing, working a manual labor job with face coverings can also do the same thing. Perhaps quotas in warehouses could be reduced slightly to compensate for the wearing of face coverings if employer or state/county government mandates them.

Judge Georgia’s re-opening or San Bernardino County’s change of policy three or four weeks after before making a rash judgement.

There should be a time and a place for the utilization of face coverings. If you are working in a space shared with other people such as a cashier at a retail store, getting a haircut, or you might be under the weather wear one.

Also, there needs to be protection against discrimination against the disabled. Expecting a severely autistic person to wear a facemask is an absurd prospect due to sensory issues. A Wal-Mart in Riverside also faced negative backlash on this issue recently when they turned away a customer with a disabled adult child.

Simply tossing your coverings due to guidelines from San Bernardino and Riverside County is not a good idea, but we should be tactful in how we interact with society.

Labor Abuses Need to End with Changes to Law

I have had a weird experience with my former employer who flouted so many labor law regulations during my tenure before I was laid off in her process to relocate to Texas where the land is affordable, and the labor regulations are paper thin.

One of the issues is dealing with the policy where you need to clock out to get a drink of water or use the restroom from my former employer. This issue was one that was not part of my state complaint because I did not see any regulations in state law, but I realized that there was relevance in federal regulations in the Fair Labor Standards Act where breaks under 20 minutes are covered.

There is a case that was dealt with in 2017 called Acosta versus American Future Systems which had a similar situation where they allowed for unpaid “flex time” for employees to use the restroom, get a drink of water or have a smoke. If an employee is abusing the regulations of the FLSA where restroom breaks that should take three minutes end up being sixteen minutes or the water breaks are too frequent then an employer should discipline or terminate the employee instead of denying the lost time that the employee is clocking out for. The case made it where policies American Future Systems used were illegal contrary to FLSA rules.

The tragedy was that our Surpreme Court of the United States denied the request to hear this case nationwide in May of 2018, but they let the decision stand for the local circuit.

I appreciate employers who allow for reasonable restroom breaks once or twice a day separate from the paid breaks California requires, but not all employers are sensible creatures. This leads to the case of the need for regulation.

I am thinking that the Department of Labor blew me off because I am not a resident of the states that are part of the third judicial circuit where the decision is moot where I live. However, I do not have the money to bring a case all the way to the ninth circuit. So, I am looking for one of our Democratic Party members of congress in California to carry a bill to codify the decision from the third circuit nationwide.
