Why is our Democratic Assembly Member endorsing a non-Democratic Yolo County District Attorney?

DeanJohanssonBy M E Gladis

To Voters in California Assembly District 4.

One wonders what the Democratic Assembly Member, Cecilia Aguiar-Curry intends by endorsing the present non-Democratic Yolo County District Attorney since he doesn’t follow democratic values. This District Attorney remains neutral on Prop 39 ( 3 Strikes Reform ) but opposes Prop 47 (Sentencing Reform ), Prop 57 ( Reduce Mass Incarceration ), and Prop 64 (Legal Adult Marijuana Use).These four Propositions Yolo County voters overwhelmingly approved. Cecilia Aguiar-Curry appears to oppose Yolo County voters.

Consider, then, this same District Attorney has filed more felony trials in Yolo County ( Pop. 213,000 ) than has the district attorney in Alameda County ( pop. 1,683,000 ) Felony trials are expensive ordeals. Yolo County 41% to CA average 19% Felony non-conviction rate. Cecilia seems to support this effort.

The Yolo County current District Attorney requires the accused to plead guilty to a felony before getting into a program, e.g., mental illness court or restorative justice. Cecilia apparently approves of this strategy.

People have spoken to me about an innocent friend or relative in prison due to fabricated charges by the current District Attorney system. Cecilia seemingly believes in this approach to injustice.

An exceptionally well-qualified Democratic-valued candidate is Dean Johansson who would use diversionary programs for those eligible, while going hard on career criminals. See how Dean Johanssons’s values line up with Yolo County voters at Dean4.DA.com

Still one is wondering if Cecilia Aguiar-Curry is the representative that Democrat voters want in the California Assembly. If one cares to contact Cecilia

    Quick response with no time for elaboration: No-one should be surprised by CAC’s endorsement of Reisig.! CAC is a Democrat in name only, like quite a number of other state Dem legislators. Quickly: For the last ten years or so, as several good articles have reported, as the Republican party at state elections in most districts became an irrelevancy, right of center people have made their political carters and got elected to the state. leg. under the Dem. banner. In CAC’s case it is not a case of changing party affiliations as did our state senator Bill Dodd (Napa), but CAC politics have always been a Little right of center and little different from Dodd’s. Don’t believe me? Follow the money. See this Sac Bee article and go to website like Ballotopedia, or just Google “Who Finances CAC Campaigns?”

    Is that a real question?
    Because she is a DINO.
