Cathedral City Mayor Kathy DeRosa,
Councilmembers Chuck Vasquez and Charles "Bud" England
Endorse Russ Bogh for State Senate

January 21, 2010

Cathedral City Mayor Kathy DeRosa, Councilmember Chuck Vasquez and Councilmember Charles England have announced their support and confidence in Riverside County businessman and former State Assemblyman Russ Bogh.

"Last year Sacramento said they had to raise our taxes to fix the economy. Since then the unemployment rate has gone up and Riverside County has lost over 32,000 jobs," said Cathedral City Councilmember Chuck Vasquez. "We don't need any more Sacramento solutions to our problems. We need a conservative businessman like Russ Bogh in the State Senate to stop them from raiding our local governments. He'll never vote to take our money or raise our taxes."

Conservative Republican businessman Russ Bogh has served Riverside County residents in the State Assembly from 2001-2006. During that time he was selected by fellow Republicans to serve as the Assembly Republican Caucus Chairman -- the second ranking Republican leader in the Assembly.

A longtime resident of Riverside County, Russ and his wife, Sheri, reside here along with their three children.

The special election primary for the 37th Senate District will be held Tuesday, April 13, 2010.

Mayor Kathy DeRosa, Councilmembers England and Vasquez join Corona City Councilmembers Spiegel, Skipworth, Montanez, Nolan and Scott, past Riverside CRA president Linda Soubirous, Desert Hot Springs Mayor Yvonne Parks, former Riverside County Sheriff Larry Smith, Palm Springs Councilman Chris Mills and many other Riverside County leaders in supporting conservative Republican Russ Bogh for the State Senate.
