We've been hit!

  John -- this didn’t take long: Rep. Duncan Hunter’s resignation has not even taken effect yet, and the national Democratic Party campaign arm just launched its first attack ads against me. Here’s why the Democrats are terrified of our campaign: First, we’re leading in the polls to sav…

Urgent -- Court Hearing Today

  John -- breaking news from federal court in San Diego: Rep. Duncan Hunter just pled guilty to the criminal charges against him and will be vacating his once-safe GOP seat. This bombshell news comes a mere 90 days before the election (March 3) and just 60 days before voting begins - so…

no response yesterday - are you around today?

  John -- after I emailed you yesterday I didn’t hear from you. I assume you may be getting an early start to Thanksgiving but I’m still hoping you’ll be able to break away for just a moment to help. I’m in a bind and we’re in the middle of a holiday week which makes it worse. Our campa…

worried about this week

  John -- with Thanksgiving falling a week late this year, I’m very worried we’re going to fall short of our campaign budget deadline for November because the last day of the month is this coming Saturday right in the middle of the holiday weekend. People understandably will be out and …

is this plagiarism?

  John -- did you see my email Tuesday to you with the details on the Fight for Five campaign I’m helping lead in California to secure and flip 5 key Congressional Seats for Republicans in 2020? Democrats are furious and say our new effort in California amounts to plagiarism or a rip of…

FW: Risk Notification -- critical

  John -- did you see my email this weekend about the Democrats possibly shutting out the GOP in the 50th Congressional District? It's critical we help Carl DeMaio and prevent a GOP shut-out. Carl has only 80 days before ballots are mailed out to voters so helping ASAP is KEY. Can you c…

Risk Notification - please respond

  John- We have some sobering findings from the recent Risk Assessment the Republican Party just finished of the Congressional seats in California and the 50th District seat is at the TOP OF THE LIST of ones at risk of being taken over by Democrats! The good news is recent polling shows…

prevent the shutout - action today

terrible news

moving out of California

  John -- did you see the big story in the LA Times yesterday about the tens of thousands of Californians who are fleeing the state each week because they cannot afford to live here or cannot stomach living here anymore? As much as I blame the California Democrats for the extreme social…

Help Trump stop impeachment

  John -- are you as disgusted by the impeachment vote taken in Congress last week as I am? Then I hope you’ll join me in doing something about it. Let’s first be clear about the motive behind the Democrats’ impeachment push: they not only want to invalidate your vote from the 2016 elec…

deadline tomorrow

  John-- I’m compiling the October finance report for Carl DeMaio’s campaign for Congress and have to submit it Friday covering a cutoff of tomorrow at midnight. We’re in a bind: right now we are $32,150 short of the target -- and releasing a report showing we have a shortfall would sen…

FW: this report worries me a lot

this report worries me a lot

  John-- I just got our campaign report from our treasurer, and I’m worried because we’re behind pace to hit our budget. Remember the Democrats moved the Primary up to March. That means we now only have 96 days until ballots are mailed to voters! I’m leading in the polls, but there are …

FW: help with criminal investigation

  John-- Did you see my note below on the outrageous stunt Newsom pulled on his gas tax hike? This is EXACTLY the reason I put everything on the line to launch this campaign. Someone HAS to hold California Democrats accountable when they pull stunts like this. Someone has to lead the fi…

help with criminal investigation

  John-- Late on Monday night Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered a criminal investigation into why California’s gas prices are so high. By Tuesday morning I called a press conference to release a detailed cost study that gives him the answer: Sacramento Democrats who raised the gas tax are to bl…

follow-up from Saturday

harvesting ballots in the upcoming election

  John-- I don’t like the practice of “Ballot Harvesting” in elections, but you and I both know the Democrats used this tactic to steal Republican seats in the 2018 election. We have found a legal way to fight back, but I need your help to do it! My campaign has been selected to pioneer…

sewage problem

  John-- I did something bold this week — some say controversial — but someone had to do it! Last year, we had to close the southern portions of San Diego county beaches for 131 days due to raw sewage spills from Tijuana! I’m with President Trump in saying "Build the Wall," but we also …

missing money and utilities are off

  John-- Did you have a chance to review the email I sent you last week about our 5-point plan to defeat Gov. Gavin Newsom? As you consider supporting our opposition to his extreme socialist agenda, please think about what he did JUST THIS PAST WEEK: On Monday, Newsom signed an executiv…

FW: answer this question please

  John -- we only have 118 days left until ballots are mailed and people start voting and we are only halfway to our campaign budget. If we lose pace the Democrats (and the liberal media) will see that as a sign of weakness. I can’t let that happen. I also want us to reserve our TV buys…

answer this question please

  John -- Last week we shocked the political world by breaking a national record — 20,872 supporters to our campaign in just 8 weeks! No Republican or Democrat congressional candidate has ever done that right out-of-the-gate. Not even the much-celebrated liberal icon Alexandria Ocasio-C…

Running out - you there?

  John- I’m running out of people to turn to. Can you be there for me please? If I don't hit my fundraising goal by Monday midnight (Sept 30), it will really hurt our campaign — and we are roughly $56k short! If we fall short, Democrats and Republican establishment meddlers will see it …

Why this Monday is so important

  John- If you only contribute to Carl DeMaio once, now is the time. Let me tell you why: Carl has a Sept 30 fundraising report deadline to hit. That’s when his campaign (and every campaign in America) have to publicly release the tally of what was raised that quarter. Because the election …

a crushing blow

Brett Kavanaugh got me thinking:

Can Carl DeMaio Save the California GOP?

Breaking: CA politicians vote for a new Gas Tax Hike
