Christy Smith Files To Run For State Assembly In 2022 Former Assemblymember Christy Smith, D-Santa Clarita, has filed paperwork to run in California’s 38th Assembly District in 2022, according to state officials. Smith recently filed campaign paperwork with the California Secretary of State, although it is yet to be seen whether or not she will be back in the Santa Clarita political circuit in the coming election cycle. According to Smith, the decision was made to stay compliant with Federal Election Commission (FEC) requirements. “To be compliant with the FEC we have to file because I still had money in the account, so I filed,” said Smith. ....
A record number of California Democratic lawmakers were dinged on the 2020 legislative scorecard released by a statewide LGBTQ advocacy organization. Thirty-three Democrats in the state Legislature failed to receive perfect scores last year due to not casting yes votes for LGBTQ bills. It is the highest number of Democratic legislators falling below a 100% score since 2006. That year, 22 Democrats in the statehouse earned less than perfect scores due to not voting in support of LGBTQ legislation. Equality California posted its 2020 scorecard to its website Friday, January 15, prior to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. EQCA also tweeted out a link to the scorecard that day along with a number of tweets praising various lawmakers who earned perfect scores, among them Assemblyman Chad Meyes (I-Yucca Valley), who left the Republican Party a year ago this month. ....

She was the living, breathing “I Want to Speak to the Manager” Scoldy “Karen.” She’s already filed to run for both CA-25 and her former Assembly district in 2022 so she’s continuing her emails to supporters – and she’s continuing the same “tone” of division and promoting falsehoods. Here’s what she had to say Thursday in an email to supporters about what happened at the Capitol Wednesday and about her representative in Congress, Mike Garcia: ....
“I think very few true volunteers are looking for recognition for their efforts. Being able to volunteer is a great gift in itself,” Cheri said at the time. “I always feel that I’m receiving so much more than I’m giving. However, to be a Woman of the Year in Santa Clarita is an amazing honor.” In 2012, Cheri was named the “Woman of the Year” by the Los Angeles County 5th Supervisorial District and Commision for Women, and in 2017 she was named the “Volunteer of the Year” by the San Fernando Valley Business Journal. Then, in 2019, both Cheri and Don were named the recipients of the “Silver Spur” community service award by College of the Canyons for their involvement in higher education. ....
