Ryan Gene Williams working hard in the 69th Assembly District
Ryan Gene Williams, the college student running for the 69th Assembly District, was recently featured in the Daily Pilot newspaper. He also will be appearing on the Real Orange newscast on KOCE on Monday, March 6.
Williams also recently held a campaign kickoff in Santa Ana and he drew a crowd of about 40. He also reports that he got a lot of support while attending the California Republican Party convention in San Jose, last week.
GOP State Senate Leader Dick Ackerman tried to get Williams to endorse Lynn Daucher for the 34th State Senate District, during the convention, but Williams wisely declined to make an immediate decision. Lupe Moreno has not hidden the fact that she stayed out of the race for the 69th Assembly District, out of deference to Williams. Here’s hoping he returns the favor by declining to endorse Daucher.
The Daily Pilot sure has a big circulation in the 69th AD. Do you think that dissing the Senate leader is any way to get ahead? Maybe time to go back to laid back OCC and run for Costa Mesa City Council.
he was featured in the daily pilot because OCC is in costa mesa.
and how could ryan possibly run for costa mesa city council if he lives in santa ana?
Logan,
Ackerman knows better than to ask Ryan to endorse Daucher. When you are a candidate, you just don’t get involved in overlapping races. Tran, for example, did not endorse either Nguyen or Righeimer. That is the way you do it. For Ackerman to ask Ryan to endorse Daucher is a breach of political etiquette on Ackerman’s part. And he knows better…
“and how could ryan possibly run for costa mesa city council if he lives in santa ana?”
The same way Mike Garcia ran for Santa Ana council when he lived in Irvine.

I think Ryan could beat Armando in a head to head on the democratic primary.
Ryan’s a republican though, and I don’t think he’d ever be a Dem.
I know why the Daily Pilot featured him—my point is that the Pilot has no coverage in the 69th.
And since when did Dick Ackerman give a whit about political etiquette? Dick has shown he carries the big stick in the state legislative races(congress is another matter)so if Ryan was smart he’d cozy up to Dick instead of Lupe.
dark chocolate, tim has forgotten more about politics than you will ever know.
