Vance Jochim's Election Recommendations for Lake County, FL Election Primaries on Aug. 23, 2022

In this coming August 23, 2022 Florida primary election, I support the following Republican or non-partisan candidates I know well. I have talked to most of them (not Shaw for Ag) and videotaped many of them for my blog FiscalRangers.com and Rumble.com/FiscalRangers

 

FL Congress House Dist. 11 - Laura Loomer

- https://lauraloomerforcongress.com

This is a no-brainer.  Incumbent Dan Webster brags about saving $ 3 million from office expense reductions, but he voted to send $ 40 billion to Ukraine WITHOUT ANY OVERSIGHT.  Thus reports from the Wall St. Journal and others say only 30% of the funded items actually reached the specified aid recipients.  Also, Dan has missed many election forums and Town Halls for years and has a bad voting record. We need fresh, energetic blood in this position, and Laura is it. Ignore all the insulting hit ads, the biased information, even on Wikipedia about her.  Watch my interview of Laura HERE.   

 

You can see my other videos of local Lake County candidate forums at Rumble.com/FiscalRangers.

 

FL House Rep. Dist. 25 (South Lake County): Tom Vail

I have known Tom for many years, and he would be excellent.  One opponent, Matt Silbernagel, seems quite good but I support Tom.  The other two candidates do not show up at forums, or have baggage, and should not be considered.

 

FL Commissioner of Agriculture - James W. Shaw - I don't know him, but many conservative Republicans tell me he is the better choice.

North Lake County Hospital Dist. Seat 2 - Barbara Price - She is working to REDUCE this Hospital tax.

Note: Opponent Velma Dawson is a heavy supporter of the Hospitals and raising the annual property tax rate to ONE mill, which I do not agree with.  This North Lake County Hospital District is one of only a FEW such tax agencies in Florida. The tax needs to be reduced.  Hospitals are non-profits, and part of the duty of non-profit hospitals is to cover the funding of indigent care, so this tax is no longer needed in my opinion. 

 

School Board Dist. 2 - Tyler Brandeburg

Note: Many people like Ludy Lopez for this position, but in my opinion, as a Fiscal Watchdog, she is not ready to be on the board for a $1-billion organization.  She needs to gain experience in smaller organizations first. 

 

School Board Dist. 5 - Stephanie Ann Luke - the incumbent - no reason to replace her

The above are on my ballot for the Tavares area. If you have other Lake County candidate races on your ballot, you can email me for feedback at [email protected]. For cities, I only know a few of the candidates and only two cities are on the primary ballot. Most other cities are on the November General Election ballot.
