After Losing Primary Election, Farrah Douglas Endorses Rocky Chavez for 76th District
Newly redrawn California Assembly District 76 is made up of Oceanside, Vista, Carlsbad, Encinitas and Camp Pendleton. Carlsbad's Farrah Douglas was one of three candidates seeking to represent the district in California's June primary.
Carlsbad City Councilwoman Farrah Douglas announced Monday that she is supporting Rocky Chavez in the race for California Assembly, District 76, encouraging her supporters and voters of the district to vote for Chavez.
Douglas, who was first elected to the Carlsbad City Council in 2010 and won her seat by receiving the largest number of votes in city history said, “Like me, Rocky Chavez believes we need to focus on jobs and the economy – and that our students deserve a quality education.”
“I am humbled by the support of Farrah Douglas, someone who has met while making a difference in business and government,” said Chavez. “She truly cares for her community, and I know she will continue to be a leader.”
Chavez served as a Marine Colonel, retiring after twenty-eight years, and later became California’s Veterans Affairs Secretary. He also spent nearly a decade as an elected Oceanside City Council member. His campaign is focused on job growth, education, veterans issues and government accountability.
