Re-elect Betty Yee for Controller

California’s June 2018 Primary

Yee is the incumbent and sole Democrat running for the office, which is essentially the state’s chief financial officer. As the San Francisco Chronicle notes, “the state’s credit rating for general obligations has ticked upward for nearly every year she’s been in office.”

Meanwhile, Yee’s Republican opponent Konstantinos Roditis is running on a plan which he describes as: “In a sense I’d create many states and allow them the right to choose which taxes and percentages they want.” California has many challenges which must be addressed statewide; reducing state funds is the wrong direction.
