Tom Patti Doesn’t Want to Talk: We Know Why

September 4, 2022 By Eric Caine 15 Comments

Tom Patti Citizens United Complaint letter

San Joaquin County Supervisor Tom Patti is running for Congress in California Congressional District 9. His opponent is Congressman Josh Harder. When Patti refused to answer questions from the San Jose Mercury News, it piqued our interest. What was it a candidate for Congress didn’t want to talk about? Turns out, there’s an awful lot. Tom Patti has a long history of financial improprieties, voting to raise taxes, crashing cars, […]

Josh Harder and Adam Schiff: Standing for America

August 23, 2022 By Eric Caine 13 Comments

Adam Schiff and Josh Harder Port of Stockton 21 Aug 2022

“I don’t know which line is longer,” said Congressman Josh Harder last Sunday, “the food line or the line to see Adam Schiff.” For much of the afternoon, it was the line to see Adam Schiff that was by far the longest. The twenty-year veteran of Congress has gained international fame not only as chair of the House Intelligence Committee but especially for his role on the House Select Committee […]

Was the (not) Adam Gray Tweet a Trial Balloon?

January 6, 2022 By Eric Caine 7 Comments

Josh Harder Del Rio

It’s no secret that Josh Harder’s successful campaign against Republican Congressman Jeff Denham in 2018 was a blow to Adam Gray’s political hopes. Insiders agree that Gray had planned to run against Denham in 2020, before he was termed out by the “lifetime” California term limits rule of 12 years total in office of any kind. Gray was elected to the 21st Assembly District in 2012, winning office with 58.2% […]

Now is the Time to Come to the Aid of Your Country

Susan Eggman downtown Modesto October 31

Susan Eggman and Josh Harder were in downtown Modesto Saturday morning, urging volunteers and their fellow citizens to exercise their most fundamental right under the Constitution of the United States — the vote. When the Founding Fathers debated about what kind of government should shape the new nation they envisioned as an “experiment,” they rejected many alternatives. Learned men, they had recent history as a lesson against monarchs and, “divine […]

Harder vs Howze? Howze Knocks Himself Out

October 8, 2020 By Eric Caine 4 Comments

Josh Harder 2018

 It wouldn’t be accurate to write Josh Harder scored a TKO over Ted Howze during their debate in Turlock Wednesday night. It was more a case of Howze running head-first into Harder’s record of accomplishments, then bouncing off solid objects and into his own logical cul-de-sacs. Howze came into the debate with a surprise attack. The endorsements that had been removed from his campaign’s website were back! He must have […]

Josh Harder: The Congressman Unmasked

August 18, 2020 By Eric Caine 5 Comments

Josh Harder in Modesto, August, 2020

“The Postal Service is enshrined in our Constitution. It’s what brings America together; it’s the connective fabric of America.” We caught Josh Harder without a mask yesterday, but we had to use a zoom lens. Harder has been wearing a face mask and practicing social distancing for months. Monday, he was outside and more than six feet from the nearest person when he took off his mask for a short […]

Ted Howze

Stanislaus County Supervisor Terry Withrow has withdrawn his endorsement of Ted Howze, Republican candidate for congress in California Congressional District 10 (CA-10). Howze, rocked by revelations of hateful and racist posts on his social media accounts, has denied he made the posts. But after news about an official rebuke from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Howze faced a rapidly eroding base of support. “I asked around with people I know, […]

Ted Howze (says he) Didn’t Do It

May 9, 2020 By Eric Caine 4 Comments

Ted Howze in Oakdale

Republican candidate for congress Ted Howze says the appearance of racist and hate-filled comments over a fourteen-month period on his Facebook and Twitter accounts was due to his “middle-aged” misunderstanding of social media — nothing more than a new-tech generation gap. “Like many folks in my middle-age group, I learned the very hard lesson to never allow anyone access to social media accounts or passwords,” Howze said in a statement.

Our Primary Picks for the March 3 Election

February 10, 2020 By Eric Caine 1 Comment

Josh Harder

The easiest choice by far in this year’s Primary Election is Josh Harder. During the 2018 Primary, we described Harder as the, “kid from Turlock.” This year, he’s the Congressman from Turlock. It was clear early on that Harder was a once-in-a-generation candidate, but even given his exceptional drive and determination, the odds against him clearing the last primary were steep. Pitted against Democrat Michael Eggman, Republican Jeff Denham and […]
