In the Race for CA-10, Harder’s the One

May 28, 2018 By Eric Caine 1 Comment

Turlock native son Josh Harder has suddenly become a target for supporters of other candidates, especially those who favor Sue Zwahlen and Michael Eggman. It’s a sure sign Harder has broken away from the pack in California Congressional District 10 (CA-10), where the crowded field also includes Virginia Madueno, Mike Barkley, and Republicans Jeff Denham and Ted Howze. Probably the most consistent theme in the attack letters appearing in local […]

Eggman for Congress

October 22, 2016 By Eric Caine 3 Comments

Jeff Denham was right when he said that he should be judged for his record rather than on his support for Donald Trump. That’s why we’ve consistently supported Denham’s opponents, Trump or no Trump. Denham’s willingness to harm his constituents by twice voting to shut down government alone should disqualify him from office. But he’s also anti-science, anti-equal pay, anti-environment, and pro a Republican Party line that has over the […]

Denham-Eggman Race Turns Negative

October 2, 2014 By Bruce Frohman Leave a Comment

Negative flyers seem to be coming out earlier this election season. With over a month to go before the election, both candidates have already sent out multiple glossy flyers. The earlier flyers exhorted the virtues of the two candidates, incumbent Republican Jeff Denham and Democrat challenger Michael Eggman. The latest flyers have turned negative and will probably discourage citizens from voting. “I Won’t Vote For Either Clown” In past elections, […]

Denham vs Eggman: Round Two

July 3, 2014 By Bruce Frohman 4 Comments

In last month’s primaries, Congressman Jeff Denham trounced newcomer Michael Eggman. Turnout was low but more people are expected to vote in the fall election. Mr. Eggman’s campaign is gearing up and the incumbent, subject to a wave of voter unhappiness, may end up in a real contest to keep his seat. Shortly after the primary concluded, Michael Eggman challenged Jeff Denham to a series of five debates. Whether or not the […]

Valley Citizens Defy Poll Data

June 7, 2014 By Bruce Frohman 2 Comments

Yet, Congressman Jeff Denham received a majority of total votes cast in his primary reelection bid. What is the significance of the vote?With about 17 percent of registered voters turning out in the June 3rd primary, an analysis of Jeff Denham’s election victory […]

Denham: “All Form and No Substance,” says Frohman

May 1, 2014 By Bruce Frohman 3 Comments

Ever since Congressman Jeff Denham helped to shut down the government last year, he has campaigned hard for reelection. Apparently, he received a low approval rating from the voters in his district. With Congress showing single digit approval ratings in poll after poll, Mr. Denham may have realized that his constituents might be unhappy with him, too. Given the pattern of his activities, he appears to be using professional political advisors. Advisors are great […]

Las Vegas Pushes to Become First City to Ban Ornamental Grass
A desert city built on a reputation for excess and indulgence wants to become a model for restraint and conservation with a first-in-the-nation policy banning grass that nobody walks on. Las Vegas-area water officials have spent two decades trying to get people to replace thirsty greenery with desert plants, and now they’re asking the Nevada Legislature to outlaw roughly 40% of the turf that’s left. The Southern Nevada Water Authority estimates there are almost 8 square miles (21 square kilometers) of “nonfunctional turf” in the metro area, grass that no one ever walks on or otherwise uses in
