I have to disagree with Mr. Epstien, WHY?????? Candidate for the 26th State Assembly (Devon Mathis) being from Porterville has yet to address Porterville Chief of Police Chuck McMillian&#039;s placement on Administrative Leave(the allegations aren&#039;t pretty, I mean if the people only knew??). If Mr. Mathis cared about the people he is wanting to represent, he should have addressed the issue by now, since it is alleged that the abuse of power affects the whole community. But he is not alone, because following his disconcern, is Incumbant 5th District Supervisor Mike Ennis, who shows a lack of respect to his constitutes by not returning phone calls (turn in the taxpayers phone &quot;Mikey&quot;, use or lose it). Mikey also ignored details as to the Tulare County Grand Jury investigation of 2012, regarding the corruption within the Porterville City Government which included the Police Department, and not to let her off the hook, how about it Mrs. Gurolla can you represent the district better than &quot;use it, or lose it Mikey&quot;????.  Mrs. Gurolla show the voters what you&#039;re all about and do the right thing this time, don&#039;t be a follower, be a strong Latina and demonstrate your effectiveness. Please remember that I brought it to your attention, that if you wanted voter support, to do the right thing, when it came to the appointment of Council Reyes, and that was to have appointed the third highest vote getter, Matt Green. Coming from the Latino community the candidates have to demonstrate their strength in attacking and solving issues, rather than showing &quot;love&quot; to one another. Rudy Mendoza will have my family, relatives, and friend&#039;s vote on November 4th. For all the others you have 22 days to demonstrate to the Voters why you DESEREVE their VOTE, starting with addressing the Chief&#039;s abuse of power, who knew, when did they know it, and why did they condone it.</description>

		<description>I believe Devin would be my best choice for the assembly because when I talked to Rudy I could never get a truthful answer to my questions.</description>
