Dahle Announces Bid for First Assembly Seat

"One of Lassen County’s own has thrown his hat into the race for the state assembly.

"Lassen County District 4 Supervisor Brian Dahle announced at Tuesday’s board of supervisors’ meeting he would not seek another term on the board of supervisors and had decided to for the California First Assembly District seat instead.

"'I could not stand idly by and let Sacramento continue down the path of self-destruction,' said Dahle."

"According to a release from Dahle’s campaign, he promises to sponsor a balanced budget amendment, reduce the size of state government and remove state regulations that stifle economic freedom."

"'The state of California has placed shackles that have restrained you and your family’s ability to prosper. I want to change that and give hope and prosperity to all Californians,' Dahle said."

The rest of the article is here.

The word on the street is that widespread support is already coalescing around Dahle - both districtwide and locally.  Dahle is the most popular and the most funded potential candidate.  His popularity and support are definitely keeping others from getting into the race.
