One of our readers dug around on Cecilia Aguinaga’s campaign website and discovered some interesting information regarding Aguinaga’s website designer. The company is called Weblicize, located at 318 W. Truslow, Suite B, in Fullerton.
Weblicize has a lot of clients and they provide a lot of information about their prominent web pages. Some of the web pages designed by Weblicize stood out including the SOCO area of Fullerton; a Hotel in Palm Springs; as well as some individual companies in Anaheim. And Weblicize has also been very busy in Santa Ana.
They host the website for Clowncilman Vincent Sarmiento who seems to be endorsed by everybody in Santa Ana, including SAUSD School Board Members Rob Richardson, John Palacio, and Jose Hernandez.
Weblicize also hosts the website for the South Santa Ana Merchants association and a site for the Nuno’s Brothers’ Market on South Standard.
Santa Ana Mayor Miguel Pulido originally hailed from Fullerton (after coming here from Mexico) and he still serves on the board of a Fullerton bank. And current Clowncilman Sal Tinajero teachers in Fullerton.
Are Pulido and Sarmiento involved in Aguinaga’s campaign? Probably. But they are not listed amongst Aguinaga’s endorsements.
I wonder if they are backing Valerie Amezcua (pictured above with her family), another candidate for the SAUSD School Board? Her campaign website does not include any endorsements, which is odd.
Her website also does not show up in any web searches. Nor does fellow SAUSD candidate Gloria Alvarado’s website show up in any search engines. I am still trying to find the URL for Alvarado’s site.
Amezcua’s website does include her education plan. And she does include her personal information, but she does NOT share with us what her formal education is. So I have no idea of Amezcua has a college degree.
What I do know is that Amezcua’s infamous father, Al, has been running around trying to drum up support for her. But I am told she is already having trouble raising money.
As I find more information about the SAUSD school board candidates I will continue this series of posts about them. Readers – keep the tips coming!
From Valerie’s website:
ACCOUNTABLITY AND TRANSPERANCY
The School Board and District must become more open and inclusive in the decisions that affect our students and the community. Accountability to the community is a top priority. I will be active in providing fiscal oversight to ensure that our funds are spent wisely and responsibly.
Sounds good to me. I signed up for her emails.

RRRRRRuuuuuFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF…..
I agree, very nice family photo. I have personally met Valerie and have had long discussions with her about issues within our community, who hasn’t? She’s a very intelligent woman, friendly, passionate, unlike some of the fake faces we see amongst Santa Ana’s political body today. While some like Valerie believe in solving issues firsthand, others like you Art would just rather gossip about them and mock the people trying to make a difference. Santa Ana City politics is framed as a joke to many and it always will be if this nonsense is perpetuated, you Art being the seed of it. Valerie’s only been employed with the Probation Department for 20 plus years, but i guess being a chatty kathy gives one the credibility to denounce that kind of position..? Well, the “reformed” chola definitely has my vote!! : )
Smile now Cry later
I don’t know about Art, but I do find any information about all of the candidates interesting. Cecilia bothers me because of her many ties to the city and district already. Her high powered website by a pro company also used by a city councilman also bothers me greatly.
Valerie and the others I don’t know too much about. As a probation officer supervisor she knows the system. I read where she is a member of the city EPIC and HR commissions. That tells me she has city ties just as Cecilia does. This is troublesome since it means just like Cecilia she answers to the city council in one form or another.
That doesn’t make either unqualified but just once I would like to see a candidate with no ties or obligations to city management. Someone with brains, kids in the schools and an investment as to what happens at SAUSD. Call it wishfull thinking.
What a joke!! This is the last person you want to vote for. Wonder why there’s no personal info? Look deeper people…you would be horrified to the answers!!
Anon to Anon
By all means tap it in or better yet tap it into the SAUSD site from the logo on the right border. A lot of this stuff should be there anyway.

Currently Valerie is 3 classes away from her Bachelors degree in Organizational Management from Cal State Long Beach University.
The last 1 1/2 years of her education at CSLB have been on the Dean’s list.
For whatever it is worth, Valerie has my endoresment.
Art,
If that is true, why doesn’t she mention it on her website? I think it is highly relevant to her campaign – and there is no shame in finishing college late. I didn’t finish my MBA until 2006.
The fact is, one of the BIGGEST problems in our community is a lack of college. Valerie should note that she is almost done with college and encourage local voters to follow suit.
#6-7 we know it’s you Cecilia & Gloria get a life ohh and buy some ONION RINGS
