Bill Essayli for California’s New 63rd District Could Be the First Wave of a Red Tsunami – Opinion

Bill Essayli has entered the race for the 63rd district Assembly seat. He sees it as an opportunity to make California a better place. RedState hears from him:

“Well, it’s a new day. It is completely new. The census gave rise to new districts. They redistricted all the lines here, so I’m now in a new district.

It’s called the 63rd Assembly District. This is an established Republican seat. Now it represents Western Riverside County: Corona, Norco, Lake Elsinore area, and Menifee.”

California’s Primary Election is June 7, less than a week away. Unfortunately, California isn’t known for its ability to turn out for primary elections. But with high gas prices, inflation, supply-chain chaos, overreaching school boards, and representatives from local governments, Californians seem activated in ways we haven’t seen for some time.

Riverside County was particularly active. It is the only California county that voted 100% to Recall Gavin Newsom for September 2021. Essayli is working to ensure that everyone knows his name, and what he stands behind, so that more people become active, as well as motivated, to vote in the election or to go to a center.

If you are local to Riverside County, Essayli is having a “Meet and Greet” on Tuesday, May 31, to meet constituents and answer questions.

Essayli says that despite the fact that it appears the race is uncontested, he’s ripping off the leather from his shoes and pressing the flesh. This is because he knows that if elected, a majority of the population will know him as their representative in Sacramento. Also, Essayli must distinguish himself among the two candidates for the seat. Essayli says that:

“There is no incumbent, so I’m not running against any sitting legislature legislator. It’s a totally open seat.

I have one Republican and one Democrat in the race against me, so as long as we get through this primary here on June 7th and if anyone here watching lives in the district, please, please vote.”

Clint Lorimore is the Republican challenger. He’s a conservative small-business owner who says on his website that he wants to make a difference in California and also represent Riverside. Essayli has an edge. His legal background. Essayli is a partner at Essayli & Brown LLC, a former federal prosecutor, and former Riverside County Deputy District Attorney.

Essayli states that there are many laws in California that should be revised or eliminated, particularly Prop. 47. Essayli made it a central part of his campaign.

“I also wanted to run due on public safety issues. They’re changing a lot of the laws in California, weakening our abilities as prosecutors, law enforcement to enforce the law, and to, you know, prosecute, and incarcerate dangerous elements of society. And so, I do think we need to reverse that trend.”

Fauzia Rizvi is his Democratic challenger, and she currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Municipal Water District. Rizvi appears to be a Leftist Trojan Horse: A Muslim woman, who’s a “wife-mom-business consultant,” with her hands in many bipartisan coalitions. Rizvi is still serving her two-year term as a water district representative, but decided at last to apply for State Assembly in March 2022. Rizvi was also running for City Council in 2018.

Sometimes, the financials and endorsement tell more than what is written. According to TransparencyUSA, Rizvi’s campaign has:

30,552 Cash on Hand

$111,816 TOTAL DONATIONS

Total EXPENSES: $326

Rivzi’s biggest donor so far is Circle City Investment Group LLC, which has all the earmarks of a shell company, with one principal, four employees, and little business activity. Rivzi also has significant contributors in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, (IBEW), and International Union of Operating Engineers.

Rizvi received the support of Mark Takano (D -His Own Side) in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is currently being challenged by Aja Smith, a Conservative veteran and Corruptocrat assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon.

This particular instance is: DoLook at a gift horse’s mouth. Fangs could be used in place of teeth.

Essayli’s pitch to Riverside County constituents is unaffected and straightforward.

“And so, if you’re happy with the way California is going, then keep electing these Democrats in the office.

If you’re not happy with what’s happening at your kids’ schools, what’s happening at the gas pump, what’s happening with the gas tax issue, or what’s happening in your neighborhoods with the homelessness and the crime, then do something different.

You can vote differently this year. There is more than one Republican on the ballot, so it’s really important that they know who we are.”
