Are Republicans Poised to Retake OC Board of Supervisors?
Orange County Supervisor Vicente Sarmiento was on track to be overwhelmingly re-elected to a second term on Tuesday night’s primary, capturing nearly 63% of the ballots cast on Tuesday.
Yet that’s as good as it gets for Orange County Democrats when it comes to local offices, with Republicans pulling ahead as top vote getters by the end of the night in the other two key contested county supervisors’ races, which both now extend out to November.
Democrats have held tenuously onto a tight, unsteady 3-2 majority on the county board of supervisors in recent years – mainly fueled by bad relations among Democratic county supervisors.
Yet with Republicans pulling ahead in two key supervisors’ elections on Wednesday morning, there’s a possibility of a massive shift on the county board in November – potentially shifting to a 4-1 Republican majority.
