Two Orange County candidates facing off in a key state Senate race pushed their platforms to win votes and encourage voter turnout in November during a forum Wednesday.
County Supervisor Janet Nguyen, a Garden Grove Republican, and former state Assemblyman Jose Solorio, a Santa Ana Democrat, took part in a 34th Senate District candidate forum moderated by former television news anchor Ed Arnold at the Pacific Club in Newport Beach.
A political whos who from the county, cities and special-interest groups attended.
The event was sponsored by the Orange County Public Affairs Association.

This is one of the most important state legislative elections in the entire nation, more important than many Federal elections.
Hard Working Ping!
Asia, Meet Mejico.
Her district used to be known as Little Saigon.. Or such.
Best wishes to her!
I’d put her kid’s grades up against her opponents anytime.
I just now saw this advertisement on television.
The exact one, on the front page of her website.
Cool. Go Janet.
Sounds like a must win for the CA GOP.
Uh oh.
I just saw an ad for Solario.
Now I’ve seen one for each candidate.
Nguyen’s was positive, and focused on her. Solario’s was negative, and also focused on Nguyen.
Solario’s was an attack ad.
Well, I hope taking the high road works for Nguyen.
Nguyen now being sullied with money laundering accusations. I guess the days of politics of personal destruction are not over.
The gubernatorial nominee in my state, Bruce Rauner, is a RINO and I don’t like him.
But the democrats are outright calling him a murderer because he owned a nursing home that had abuse allegations! The politics of personal destruction is SOP for every desperate demorat.
