Morrell to run for Assembly
Rancho Cucamonga resident Mike Morrell announced today he is running for the 63rd Assembly District in 2010. Morrell, 56, is president of Provident Realty in Upland.
Morrell, along with Mayor Don Kurth and Councilman Rex Gutierrez, are Republicans seeking the Assembly seat currently occupied by Bill Emmerson, R-Rancho Cucamonga. Emmerson will be termed out next year.
In a press release, Morrell called the proposed tax increases his top concern, followed by job loss and illegal immigration.
"The liberals only know one way and that's to tax and spend from the womb to the tomb while they drive away jobs and hurt families trying to make ends meet," according to the release. "The Legislature needs more small business owners and fewer politicians, more people who work for a living and fewer who live off the taxpayers."

frankly the republican party in this town, and for this area is a joke.

that statement makes me sick. And it allmsot makes me ashamed to be from this area. Rancho needs a liberal (be it a democrat,socialist,green etc) to balance out this town, and weed out the conservative idiots who are purely (and obviously) in this political rat race for self benefit.
Ps the above statement was made by me. i didn't put my name in.
We are free to move. Plenty of places to chose from.
We moved to this country and left socialism.
It have never raised the so called poor to middle class. It lowered middleclass hard working people to the lower level, Someone had to pay for it.
