Elections in California
There are two different types of primary elections in California. The results of the primary election determine the candidates
who will run in the general election in November. The types of primary elections are:
Presidential (Party-Nominated/Partisan Office)
• Office on the ballot: U.S. President
• Who can vote: Only voters who registered with the same political party as the candidate (the Democratic, American
Independent, and Libertarian parties allow voters who registered with no party preference to vote in their primary).
• Result: The candidate who moves on to the general election is the candidate nominated by their national political
party and may not be the candidate that was elected by popular vote in the California primary election.
California Open Primary (Voter-Nominated Offices)
• Offices on the ballot: U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, statewide offices, and state legislative offices
• Who can vote: Any voter may vote for any one candidate in each contest, regardless of party preference.
• Result: The top-two candidates, regardless of party preference, who receive the most votes in each primary contest
move on to the general election. After a top-two primary, a general election must be held even if one candidate
receives a majority of the vote (at least 50 percent +1) and even if there is only one candidate in the primary election.
California's open primary system does not apply to candidates running for U.S. President, County Central Committee, or local
offices. Non-partisan offices (such as judges, county supervisors, city council members, and school board members) remain
open to all eligible voters.

Elections in California
The Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act requires that all candidates for a voter-nominated office be listed on the
same ballot. Previously known as partisan offices, voter-nominated offices are state legislative offices, U.S.
congressional offices, and state constitutional offices.
In both the open primary and general elections, you can vote for any candidate regardless of what party preference
you indicated on your voter registration form. In the primary election, the two candidates receiving the most votes —
regardless of party preference — move on to the general election. If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (50
percent + 1), a general election still must be held. Even if there are only two candidates for an office in the open
primary, a general election for that office is still required.
California's open primary system does not apply to candidates running for U.S. President, County Central
Committee, or local offices.
California law requires that the following information be printed in this pamphlet
Party-Nominated/Partisan Offices
Political parties may formally nominate candidates for party-nominated/partisan offices at the primary election. A
nominated candidate will represent that party as its official candidate for the specific office at the general election and
the ballot will reflect an official designation. The top vote-getter for each party at the primary election moves on to the
general election. Parties also elect officers of county central committees at the primary election.
A voter can only vote in the primary election of the political party he or she has disclosed a preference for upon
registering to vote. However, a political party may allow a person who has declined to disclose a party preference to
vote in that party's primary election.
Voter-Nominated Offices
Political parties are not entitled to formally nominate candidates for voter-nominated offices at the primary election.
A candidate nominated for a voter-nominated office at the primary election is the nominee of the people and not the
official nominee of any party at the general election. A candidate for nomination to a voter-nominated office shall have
his or her party preference, or lack of party preference, stated on the ballot, but the party preference designation is
selected solely by the candidate and is shown for the information of the voters only. It does not mean the candidate is
nominated or endorsed by the party designated, or that there is an affiliation between the party and candidate, and no
candidate nominated by the voters shall be deemed to be the officially nominated candidate of any political party. In this
sample ballot booklet, parties may list the candidates for voter-nominated offices who have received the party's official
endorsement.
Any voter may vote for any candidate for a voter-nominated office, if they meet the other qualifications required to vote
for that office. The top two vote-getters at the primary election move on to the general election for the voternominated office even if both candidates have specified the same party preference designation. No party is entitled to
have a candidate with its party preference designation move on to the general election, unless the candidate is one of
the two highest vote-getters at the primary election.
Nonpartisan State Offices
Political parties are not entitled to nominate candidates for nonpartisan offices at the primary election, and a
candidate at the primary election is not the official nominee of any party for the specific office at the general election. A
candidate for nomination to a nonpartisan office may NOT designate his or her party preference, or lack of party
preference, on the ballot. The top two vote-getters at the primary election move on to the general election for the
nonpartisan office.

HO W TO USE THIS SAMPLE BALLOT
1. POLITICAL PARTY PREFERENCE: If you are not sure about your political party preference, look at the
front of this booklet or at the address label on the back cover. You may also check your political party
preference on our website at www.voteinfo.net or by calling (951) 486-7200.
If you chose a political party preference when registering to vote you will be issued an official ballot which
will include that political party’s U.S. Presidential and central committee candidates. Voter-Nominated and
Nonpartisan contests will also be included.
2. NO PARTY PREFERENCE AND NONPARTISAN: If you did not indicate a political party preference or
you registered with an unqualified political party, then you will be issued the No Party Preference /
Nonpartisan ballot. Your ballot will include congressional, state legislative, and nonpartisan contests, not
U.S. Presidential Candidates. However, for this election, three parties are allowing cross over voting for
their Presidential Candidates. You may request one of the following ballots:
Democratic Party
American Independent Party
Libertarian Party
3. PARTISAN OFFICES in the SAMPLE BALLOT
Look at the sample ballot pages that follow. Find the sample ballot pages for the appropriate political
party, in order to review your official ballot choices for partisan offices.
If you are a no party preference voter and you choose to vote the nonpartisan ballot, you will not find any
of the presidential candidates on your ballot.
4. VOTER-NOMINATED AND NONPARTISAN SAMPLE BALLOT PAGES
All voters are eligible to vote on the voter-nominated and nonpartisan portion of the ballot. Following the
party sample ballot pages are the voter-nominated and nonpartisan offices, and state and local
propositions and measures. The exact issues and offices on your ballot correspond to the location of your
residence address, according to what jurisdictions have seats to fill and/or questions to ask.

CANDIDATE STATEMENT FOR
UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVE,
36TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
JEFF STONE, Republican
AGE: 60
OCCUPATION: Pharmacist / California Senator
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:
Washington is broken and the White House and Congress must share
the blame. The $20 trillion debt; the expanding threat of ISIS and Islamist
terrorism; the failed Obamacare system; the constant calls for high taxes
- these problems are all products of politicians who have failed their oath
of office, failed their country and us.
We can’t expect change unless we are willing to vote for leaders committed
to doing what’s right, even when it means shaking up the status quo. I am
running for Congress to do exactly that and give you the representation
you deserve.
As your new representative in Congress, I pledge to work to:
-Expand our economy; reduce regulations and protect American business
and American workers.
-Repeal dangerous “deals” with countries like Iran that sponsor terrorism,
hate America and seek to destroy our friend Israel.
-Limit government intrusions into our private lives and small businesses.
-Increase and improve services for Veterans, military personnel and
their families.
-Stop tax increases - you already pay too much - and balance the budget
by cutting waste and bureaucracy.
I am a husband, father, pharmacist, small business owner and citizenSenator. My time in public service is dedicated to keeping our nation
safe, protecting your constitutional rights and improving our economy.
My candidacy is endorsed by the Riverside Sheriffs Association, Riverside
County District Attorney Mike Hestrin, Riverside County Treasurer Don
Kent, four County Supervisors and more than 70 elected public servants.
I would be honored to receive your vote. Thank you.

CANDIDATE STATEMENT FOR
STATE SENATOR,
23RD SENATORIAL DISTRICT
MIKE MORRELL, Republican
OCCUPATION: Business Owner / Senator
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:
After owning a business for 25 years, I ran for the State Legislature with
the goal of restoring California to its greatness by limiting government
power, ranking the citizens above the state, and improving our business
and educational climate.
My wife Joanie and I have lived in this area all our lives. We were married
here, we own a home here, we opened a business here, and we raised
our children David, Kristen and Matthew here. We believe it is our duty
as parents to leave the Inland Empire a better place than we found it
for future generations. That’s why I am seeking re-election to the State
Senate.
Since being elected, I’ve worked for the families of the Inland Empire,
opposing proposals that would drive up the already high cost of living,
keeping property taxes low, stopping over $6 billion in new taxes, working
on upgrading education standards, and passing legislation to improve the
lives of veterans.
Government’s job is to work for us, not against us: to provide more
freedom and opportunity, not less. Citizens thrive when we keep more
of the money we earn, so that we can invest in our lives and the lives of
our loved ones.
I am deeply committed to these principles and I have worked hard to
serve you. I would be honored to receive your vote. With your help we can
make government efficient and effective.
Sincerely,
Mike Morrell

MEMBER OF THE STATE ASSEMBLY,
42ND ASSEMBLY DISTRICT
JEFF HEWITT, Libertarian
OCCUPATION: Mayor of Calimesa
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:
The future prosperity for this area greatly depends on the person we
choose to represent us in Sacramento. As a third generation native born
Californian I believe I possess the experience and values necessary to
help guide our area back to economic prosperity and individual freedom.
My owning and operating a small business in the area for the last 30+
years gives me daily reminders of what needs to be done to make our
state more attractive to private job providers. Having raised 6 children,
my wife and I know the challenges of a daily struggle to feed, clothe and
educate the next generation.
I possess a B.S. Degree in Biology from Cal State San Bernardino, a
commercial truck driving license, a state contractor’s license and speak
Spanish fluently. None of these qualifications are as important as the
education I have received the last 5 years as a city councilman or the
6 years as a planning commissioner prior to that. My tenure on the San
Gorgonio Pass Water Alliance has kept me informed on a major priority.
As current Mayor of the City of Calimesa, I employ my business
experience with a history of making hard decisions proactively while
working constructively with staff and my fellow council members.
However, I cannot compromise on my core values of a lean, efficient
government that works to promote prosperity and protect individual
freedoms.

42ND ASSEMBLY DISTRICT
CHAD MAYES, Republican
OCCUPATION: State Assemblyman
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:
Raised in Southern California by a single mom who worked three jobs,
Greg learned the values of personal responsibility and a strong work
ethic early on. Greg worked his way through college and made a career
fighting for individual liberties. Twenty years ago, he left his company to
become a full-time father after adopting his autistic nephew and another
son who had been in five different foster homes by the time he was four.
Two years ago, I shared your frustration with Sacramento’s partisan
gridlock and pledged to bring Republicans and Democrats together to
reduce taxes, reduce regulations and create good paying local jobs.
Recognizing that commitment, my colleagues elected me Assembly
Republican Leader in order to tackle those issues head on. And in
just a few short months, we’ve already made progress by negotiating
a bipartisan agreement to cut taxes by $100 million and pay off over
$400 million in state debt to free up dollars to fix our roads and bridges.
California’s most respected taxpayer advocate, The Howard Jarvis
Taxpayers Association, endorsed my re-election for getting that done
and for my record of protecting Prop. 13.
I authored legislation to establish The California Regulatory Reform
Council, to find ways to reduce regulations that are killing jobs in our
community. I have been able to continue that fight as a Member of
the Little Hoover Commission, an independent body that investigates
policies to make state government operations and our economy more
efficient. I’m especially proud that the California State Chamber of
Commerce has awarded me a perfect 100% record.
Greg fought for solutions for children with developmental disabilities
and improving education in the desert. He became District Director
for Congressman Raul Ruiz and spent two years leading a team that
delivered unparalleled constituent services to veterans, seniors, and
other residents.
Today, Greg is running for State Assembly to take his passion for solutions
to Sacramento to get the results we need here in the district. His priorities
include:
Create jobs and build sustainable economic growth by reducing unnecessarily
burdensome regulations on small businesses, investing in renewable
energy jobs, and expand manufacturing and logistics job opportunities.
AGE: 39
Strengthen education preparing our kids to compete for new economy We’ve accomplished a lot but there’s more work to do. Join me at
jobs with creative solutions, attracting and retaining the best teachers, ChadMayes.com
and making college more affordable for families.
Develop long-range strategies to prevent future water shortages through
expanding storage and recycling incentives and promoting innovative
new technologies in irrigation and delivery of water.
Improve mental health services to care for individuals with mental
illnesses to reduce negative outcomes like homelessness and domestic
violence.
Greg would be honored to have your vote.

SHELLIE MILNE
OCCUPATION: Small Business Owner
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:
As I listen to Third District voters, I hear a consistent and powerful message
– citizens have had enough of career politicians who come from within the
political establishment and promise action but deliver nothing.
I’m a mother of six, a family farmer, and a small construction business
owner. I know what it means to live within a budget and make a payroll. I
arrive at decisions and govern based upon conservative, common sense,
bottom-line business principles.
I believe in limited government, fiscal responsibility, free markets, lower
taxes, private property rights, and the Second Amendment. The most
important role for government is to protect its citizens – every other
activity is secondary. As a member of the Board of Supervisors, my votes
will be entirely consistent with these core values.
Before my election to the City Council, I personally took up the challenge
of illegal immigration and spearheaded the passage of E-Verify in five
of our local cities. I have fought and won battles imposing term limits,
reducing city council compensation, and requiring competitive bids for
municipal services.
As a person of action and an unwavering defender of the taxpayer, I
would sincerely appreciate your vote. Thank You.

impartial analysis of measure “E”
The City of Hemet placed Measure “E” on the ballot seeking voter
approval of a 1% transactions and use tax (hereinafter, the “tax”) to
be used exclusively to enhance public safety services within the City
of Hemet.
If Measure “E” is approved, a one cent per dollar tax will be levied on
the sale of all tangible personal property sold at retail within the City
of Hemet, as well as upon the storage, use or other consumption of
tangible personal property purchased from any retailer within the City
of Hemet. The tax would be collected in the same manner and at the
same time as sales taxes.
Measure “E” requires the tax revenues to be earmarked exclusively
for use by the City of Hemet Police and Fire Departments to provide
additional peace officers and firefighters / paramedics and for services
that support those personnel. Tax revenues may only be used for
expenditures identified in Measure “E”. Two-thirds of the tax revenues
must be allocated to the Police Department and one-third must be
allocated to the Fire Department.
Measure “E” requires the City Council to annually approve a tax revenue
expenditure plan that is consistent with the Measure’s mandates, and
that funds a Hemet Police Department staffing ratio of 1.2 full-time
equivalent sworn peace officers per 1,000 City of Hemet residents
by July 1, 2019. This ratio is required to be maintained through the
expiration of the Measure assuming receipt of sufficient tax revenue.
Measure “E” also requires the City to budget and appropriate to the City
of Hemet Police and Fire Departments at least 72% of the total general
fund expenditure budget in each fiscal year.
Measure “E” prohibits the tax revenues from being used to pay for police
or fire services provided by another governmental entity or a private
entity in a manner that would diminish or replace services provided by
City of Hemet Police or Fire Department personnel.
Measure “E” requires the creation of a “Citizens’ Oversight Committee”
to furnish independent advisory review of the expenditure of the tax
revenues. The Committee will meet at least twice per year and will
review the required expenditure plan before it is adopted by the City
Council. Measure “E” also requires an independent audit of the use of
the tax proceeds to be conducted annually. The Committee will also
review the required independent annual audit prior to its final review
by the City Council. Four members of the Committee are selected by
the Hemet Police Chief, four members are selected by the Hemet Fire
Chief, and three members are selected by the Hemet City Council.
California Revenue and Taxation Code section 7285.9 authorizes the
City of Hemet to levy the proposed tax if the ordinance proposing the
tax is approved by a two-thirds vote of both the City Council and the
voters. The Council approved the tax ordinance for submittal to the
voters by a 4-1 vote on February 23, 2016. If approved by two-thirds
of the voters, the ordinance would take effect on October 1, 2016 and
would continue for a period of ten (10) years thereafter. The tax will be
automatically repealed effective October 1, 2026 if not extended by a
vote of the people.

RV 032-021
ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE “E”
REBUTTAL TO Argument IN FAVOR OF measure “E”
There’s a public safety crisis in Hemet.
• Violent crime is up 50%.
• Trespassing and Disturbing the Peace calls are up 1,025%.
• Assaults on police officers are up 1,100%.
• Gang members, drug dealers, parolees and sex offenders from
Los Angeles County are pouring into Hemet.
• But there are 25% fewer police officers on the street today than
in 2010.
Raising taxes is for politicians who are too lazy or intimidated by their
union masters to make unpopular decisions. Neither cutting wasteful
spending nor insisting upon better management of our public safety
departments was even given remote consideration. Why not? Because
they want the cash!
Last year, Hemet Fire Department responded to 16,171 calls for
medical, rescue and fire emergencies, the most per capita of any city
in California.
• B
ut since 2008, there has been a 40% reduction in Fire
Department staffing.
• There are no fire engines on duty at Fire Station 5 in eastern
Hemet, and not all fire stations have paramedics on duty.
Because of a decline in property and sales tax revenue caused by the
Great Recession, the City lacks the resources to confront our growing
public safety crisis.
More boots on the ground will force criminals to go elsewhere
and keep Hemet safe!
Measure “E” will:
• Add 39 new police officers patrolling neighborhoods
• Ensure faster 911 emergency response
• Restore police anti-gang and anti-drug units
• Expand tracking of parolees and sex offenders
• Provide paramedics at every fire station
• Restore Fire Engine Company at Station 5
The special interests controlling the current council majority have stated
that they will spend whatever it takes to convince Hemet voters to raise
the current sales tax by 12.5%, making millions of dollars available for
salary increases and other “internal service” charges. They will inundate
your mailbox and try to intimidate your vote. Stand up to the tax bullies,
most of whom live outside the city and will not pay the increased tax.
The truth is that the City is playing games with the statistics they cite
because they want to scare you into passing this tax. The 2015 crime
figures from the District Attorney show that Hemet is no different than
other cities. Violent crime in Murrieta is up 29%. Car theft in Temecula
is up 62%. Burglary in Hemet is actually down 19%.
Do we have problems? Yes. Will passing this tax solve them, or
even make a dent? No. And by the way, if you think you can avoid
the increased tax and buy that car somewhere else -- think again.
Your home address dictates how much sales tax you pay for any auto
purchase, no matter where you buy.
Send a message to the City and reject this tax.

Raymond Strait, Hemet Taxpayers Association
Measure “E” adds 1¢ to the sales tax on every dollar spent, providing
$10 million annually for public safety, much of it paid by shoppers from
outside our city.
Taxpayer protections:
• By law, this money can only be used to improve public safety
services.
• It cannot be touched by the City Council or diverted to other
city services, and it cannot be taken away by Sacramento
politicians.
• Measure “E” establishes an independent Citizens Oversight
Committee to ensure Measure “E” funds are spent as promised.

Argument against measure “E”
REBUTTAL TO Argument against measure “E”
After years of uncontrolled spending and union giveaways, the
chickens have finally come home to roost, and Hemet taxpayers are
being asked to write the bailout check. Hemet doesn’t have a revenue
problem -- Hemet has a spending problem. However, rather than
make the hard decisions necessary to cut costs, the current council
majority hired a San Francisco based consultant to convince Hemet
taxpayers that raising the sales tax by 12.5% will solve our problems.
Don’t be fooled. This is nothing more than a payback to the unions
who supported candidates in the last election, and a continuation of the
“legacy of failure” that has plagued the City of Hemet for years.
The small special interest group opposed to Measure “E” seems
prepared to live with continuation of the crime epidemic devastating
our city, and prepared to punish our residents for past conduct of City
Councils.
Hemet’s rise in crime is no different than any other city in the region,
and thanks to Sacramento, local jails can only accommodate the
most violent of criminals. Additional police will not solve our homeless
problem or eradicate the unsavory characters strolling Florida Avenue.
When our non-resident Police Chief spends his time promoting new
taxes, remember that he is the highest paid Hemet employee making
over $300,000 per year in salary and benefits. And, thanks to prior
city councils who have put union demands above the interest of the
taxpayers, Hemet now has an unfunded pension liability exceeding
$80,000,000.
Increasing our sales tax will only force local merchants into a competitive
disadvantage with all other cities, and will encourage much-needed
new businesses to locate elsewhere. A sales tax increase is also the
most unfair to retirees on fixed incomes. Ask yourself why an increase
in sales taxes as opposed to property taxes is being proposed. The
answer lies in those who support it.
Hemet voters need to reject this tax and force the City Council to finally
represent the taxpayers and not the local unions.
Many of us who support Measure “E” have also been critical of City
Councils. That’s why we fought to make sure Measure “E” contains
tough taxpayer protections that guarantee revenue it generates can only
be used to supplement police, fire and emergency medical services,
and why we fought to include an Independent Citizens’ Oversight
Committee to make sure the money is spent exactly as promised.
Opponents’ alternatives – a property or utility tax increase – would
put the tax burden on our seniors and working families. Measure
“E”’s 1-penny-per-dollar sales tax would largely be paid by shoppers
from outside the city. Opponents deceptively ignore that Measure “E”
exempts groceries and prescription medications.
That’s why Measure “E” is supported by leading Republicans,
Democrats, Chamber of Commerce, physicians, retail store owners,
numerous church organizations – and local crime victims.
Measure “E” will make our city safe again by putting 39 more police officers
on the street in our neighborhoods, creating a Crime Suppression Unit
to reduce gang violence and a Nuisance Abatement Team to address
homelessness, improving 911 emergency response times, adding 4
Criminal Intelligence Investigators to track gang members, parolees,
and sex offenders, ensuring paramedics are on duty at every fire
station, and adding 6 emergency medical dispatchers.
