Donald Wagner Enters AD 70th Assembly Race
Irvine Attorney and Community College District President Enters Race
IRVINE- Attorney and Community College District President Donald Wagner has kicked off his campaign to replace termed out Assemblyman Chuck Devore to represent the 70th Assembly District.
Wagner’s strong conservative message of change away from the current fiscal recklessness in Sacramento, and his long history of effective government leadership, has already earned the Wagner campaign a number of endorsements from conservative education leaders, the Family Action Pac, and Republican voters and community activists throughout Orange County.
“I believe that the State Assembly is simply not doing the job we are paying it to do,” said Wagner. “By raising taxes and allowing spending to get out of control, the State Assembly is not putting the needs and concerns of the citizens of California first.”
Wagner has hired Duane Dichiara and Jason Roe of Revolvis Consulting. Long time conservative activist John Fugatt is already aboard the Wagner campaign as its treasurer.
Grassroots volunteers and fundraisers are also in place as the campaign kicks into high gear. Wagner will later this month report more cash on hand for this race than his primary opponent, Tustin Councilman Jerry Amante, who has been running for more than eight months yet reported less than $12,000 cash on hand at the close of the last reporting period.
Wagner and his wife Megan have three children, and have been residents of Irvine since 1991. He is a graduate of UCLA and the University of California, Hastings College of Law. Wagner has been elected to three consecutive terms on the Board of Trustees of the South Orange County Community College District since 1998, and currently serves as the Board’s President. Wagner also founded the Orange County chapter of the Federalist Society, a nationwide organization of lawyers, law professors, and judges.
