STATEMENT OF CANDIDATE FOR
UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVE, DISTRICT NO. 4
TOM MCCLINTOCK
Occupation: United States Representative
Education and Qualifications:
This election is not about parties. It is about policies that work and policies that don’t.
Our nation has enjoyed its greatest prosperity when it has known its greatest freedom.
We faced an equally depressing economy during the Carter years, but then we elected
Ronald Reagan. He dramatically reduced the bureaucratic burdens and taxes that
were crushing American families and he produced one of the most prosperous periods
of our nation’s history.
During the last six years, we have done exactly the opposite with exactly the opposite
results. This administration made a lot of promises that turned out to be untrue. As a
result, our healthcare system is in chaos, average household earnings have shrunk,
our constitutional rights are under siege, our national debt has doubled and our children
are in danger of becoming the first American generation to be less well off than their
parents.
You know where I stand. I have fought against these policies of debt, doubt and
despair. I have warned that this government has grown too big and too powerful at the
expense of hard-working taxpayers. I have stood for restoring those uniquely American
principles of individual liberty, constitutionally limited government, and personal
responsibility that are the foundation of our nation’s freedom, prosperity and happiness.
I am asking for your support to continue this work. You can read more about my
proposals at tommcclintock.com.
ARTHUR “ART” MOORE
AGE: 36
Occupation: Businessman/Military Officer
Education and Qualifications:
I am running for Congress because I have a life long calling to serve our great nation.
I served our country as an officer in the U.S. Army leading soldiers in three overseas
tours, including twice during Operation Iraqi Freedom. I’ve worked as a business leader
creating jobs through a recession. I now wish to serve you by adding a new voice to
Congress and doing the hard work necessary to get this country moving in the right
direction.
We live in an era where the system is broken and only getting worse — where career
politicians believe that running up huge deficits and then increasing taxes is good
policy. They think the solution to our challenges is massive government programs like
Obamacare.
I want to bring new vigor and dedication to the fight for an economy that creates jobs,
allows small businesses to thrive and defends the right of individuals to make their own
health care decisions.
Washington is bombarded by special interest voices and gridlocked by entrenched
politicians. We can do better. I will go to Washington and make sure the voices of my
constituents are heard, and the best interests of the district are represented.
To learn more about my campaign, please visit artmooreforcongress.com. America’s
greatest days are still ahead of us. It’s been my sacred honor to serve you in uniform
and I would be honored to have your vote and represent you during these critical times
for the region, our state and the nation.

TOM BERRYHILL
AGE: 60
Occupation: Farmer/Legislator
Education and Qualifications:
As a fourth generation Central Valley farmer and independent businessman, I’m
proud so many community leaders and respected organizations want me re-elected to
the State Senate. A few examples: I’m endorsed by Fresno County Sheriff Margaret
Mims, the California Grape & Tree Fruit League President Barry Bidwell and CDF
Firefighters, the largest fire department in the state.
During my service, I wrote legislation that would end environmental regulatory abuses
and stop frivolous lawsuits that are costing our Valley jobs. In fact, the (CSBA) California
Small Business Association named me the 2013 Senate Legislator of the Year.
One important law I authored cracked down on metal theft, a serious problem that’s
plaguing the Central Valley and costing farmers, businesses, local government and
public schools millions of dollars per year in property damage.
I have fought to build more water storage facilities, stop the early release of
dangerous convicts and opposed tax hikes. I was also appointed chairman of the bipartisan Rural Caucus that’s worked to help our agricultural economy. Additionally, I
authored and co-sponsored bills to curtail out of control public pensions, provide more
career and technical education training programs, require a state budget spending cap
and conserve prime farmland.
In the past, I’ve received the California Rifle and Pistol Association Legislator of the
Year award, the American Nurses Association California Legislator of the Year award
and the Friends of California Community Colleges award.
Most important, I’m happily married to my wife, Loretta, and I have two beautiful
daughters.

PAULINA MIRANDA
Occupation: Member, Fresno Democratic Party/Businesswoman
Education and Qualifications:
Women have the right to vote and be voted.
Since 2002, I am a volunteer at Fresno County Democratic Party, where I achieved
the following positions: Member, State representative, Elected Officer as Treasurer,
and Trustee of the Democratic Party Office. I was elected Trustee and Controller at
California Democratic Council. Emerge California, 2012 Alumna: this premium Program
prepares Democratic women to be Elected Officers.
I made my studies of Bachelor in Sciences and Master in Industrial Administration at
the School of Chemist, UNAM-National Autonomous University of Mexico.
I am bilingual, Latin woman, global professional manager, with expertise in marketing,
financial, quality assurance, professor, elderly care, project developer, wife, mother and
grandmother.
The base of the economy en the Central Valley is Agriculture: we should work
“all together” to implement a plan, for the short and long term, that cover our water
necessities and maximize our natural and financial resources; although without water,
our jobs and business are put on jeopardy. Alternatives: Increase forestation, reestablish
and restore the equilibrium in the Sacramento-Delta’s ecosystem and in our rivers and
lakes. Build reservoirs. Desalt water from the ocean.
The Central Valley makes California the seventeen economy in the world; nevertheless,
we still suffer from double digits unemployment, our community needs better wages and
diversify jobs.
Our students should graduate in a higher percentage in optimal time at High School,
College and University level: The establishment of policies to increase the graduation
rate will help the economy improvement.

LISA GAMOIAN
AGE: 55
Occupation: Chief of Homicide, Fresno County District Attorney
Education and Qualifications:
I am the Chief Deputy District Attorney specially assigned to prosecute the most
violent and dangerous criminals in Fresno County. I have proudly served you in that
capacity for 24 years.
I successfully prosecuted numerous Three Strikes and Death Penalty cases. I
prosecuted Marcus Wesson who was sentenced to death for the murders of his 9
children. As a result, I was named California’s Outstanding Prosecutor of the Year. I
teach Deputy District Attorneys and Police Cadets throughout the State.
Born in Selma, the daughter of a raisin farmer, I still operate my late father’s 40 acre
farm. I know the importance of water to Fresno County and the court’s role in protecting
our water rights.
I graduated from Selma High, Fresno State and Hastings Law School. I have a lifelong investment in Fresno County. I believe in our community with all my heart.
Because I am committed to public safety and service, I am now running for Superior
Court Judge. I will work to stop the “revolving door” at the jail that releases an average
of 50 criminals a day back onto our streets. I have the right experience to dispense the
tough and fair justice we the people of Fresno County deserve.
PHILLIP JARRETT CLINE
Occupation: Deputy District Attorney
Education and Qualifications:
It has been my honor to serve you as Deputy District Attorney. As a prosecutor and
former police officer obtaining justice for victims of crime has always been my highest
priority. My extensive knowledge of both criminal and civil law has prepared me to be a
tough, levelheaded, and fair judge.
As your judge I will insure that all our citizens have ready access to their justice
system. By integrating web-based services, cloud technologies, and smart apps I will
make our court system more efficient, save taxpayer money, and make our calendars
serve you rather than the other way around.
I want to see our police officers kept on the street rather than waiting for cases in the
hallways of the courthouse. I want to see our mental health courts expanded so the
mentally ill don’t get lost in the justice system. I want to see the scope of our veterans
courts increased so that justice and dignity is available to those who have served our
country.
My endorsements include Assembly Minority leader Connie Conway and Senator
Jean Fuller.
It will be an honor for me to continue my public service as your judge. I respectfully
ask for your vote.
STATEMENT OF CANDIDATE FOR
JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR COURT, OFFICE NO. 15
STATEMENT OF CANDIDATE FOR
JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR COURT, OFFICE NO. 15
RACHEL HILL
AGE: 50
Occupation: Criminal Law Professor, Civil Attorney, Former Prosecutor
Education and Qualifications:
I am the only candidate with experience in the many areas of law directly affecting our
community. My civil and criminal law experience, reputation as a tough prosecutor and
trial attorney, and my work teaching Constitutional Law, Ethics, Criminal and Juvenile
Law, establish me as the most qualified candidate.
Judges don’t choose which cases they will get. Taxpayers need a judge with broadbased legal and life experience. I have that experience, handling cases ranging from
gang, armed robbery and homicide to contract, water, and zoning disputes. Candidates
who have only prosecution experience or a title of “administrative law judge,” which has
them handling only administrative claims, lack the necessary qualifications. I am the
only candidate with the experience to hit the ground running on day one.
Graduating from Notre Dame Law School in 1990, I spent years developing vast
experience in civil law with a top Fresno firm. I then joined the Fresno County District
Attorney’s Office, where I was a prosecutor for over ten years, earning Criminal Law
Specialist Certification, never losing a trial. I have defended constitutional rights of
individuals in state and federal courts.
A vote for me is a vote for experience, strength and common sense.
CHARLES F. MAGILL
AGE: 52
Occupation: Attorney
Education and Qualifications:
Juris Doctorate from San Joaquin College of Law
Change is coming to the Fresno County judicial system. Prison overcrowding is a
reality and the days of “just lock them up” are behind us. Almost all of the seated judges
are former career prosecutors and that has served us well in the past, however, these
new realities are going to require a commitment to be tough on crime and the ability to
look outside-of-the-box to insure justice.
My 25 years of experience in the private sector makes me well qualified for the office
of judge. As an experienced attorney and legal analyst I bring a new and independent
perspective to the bench.
I believe passionately in the rights the Constitution has identified. I have courageously
fought in court for the rights of religious freedom and free speech and have been
recognized for my work by the Pacific Justice Institute.
My wife and business partner, Laura Guzman Magill, a successful attorney who
recently passed away from a battle with breast cancer always agreed with my philosophy
that a defense attorney is the ultimate defender of our Constitutional rights.

STEVEN D. SMITH
Occupation: Administrative Law Judge II
Education and Qualifications:
My family came to Fresno County in 1965. I grew up during a time when our doors
did not need to be locked and everyone knew their neighbors. Our values remain the
same, but our community continues to change. We need firm compassionate judges to
deal with Fresno’s crime rates. Judges also need to appreciate the diverse nature of our
citizens as well as our business community.
While in college at Fresno State, I worked for U.S. Senator Pete Wilson. As a criminal
defense attorney for almost 20 years, I represented clients in thousands of cases in half
of the counties of this state, as well as several federal courts.
I have served the people as an Administrative Law Judge for the past five years. As
an ALJ I have made tough and well-reasoned decisions that have affected the lives of
the thousands of citizens. As your next Superior Court Judge, I will continue to make
tough well-reasoned decisions.
I am the only local conservative candidate with extensive judicial training and
experience. I ask for your vote on June 3rd.

AGE: 57
Occupation: Fresno County Superintendent of Schools
Education and Qualifications:
Fresno is our home. Born and raised here, I attended and graduated from the public
schools in our County. After serving as Deputy Superintendent under Larry Powell
for several years, I was proud to be appointed in June 2013 as your Fresno County
Superintendent of Schools. Now in my 23rd year in education, I believe that a variety
of opportunities for students, business-school partnerships and participation by the
community are critical elements to student success. Our teachers, administrators and
school staff absolutely cannot do it alone. I am a strong advocate for Career Technical
Education, and promoting the Arts. Students deserve the opportunity to discover their
passions, as they prepare for higher education and/or to enter the work force. Many
of the unique challenges we face in Fresno County carry a tremendous impact on our
children, specifically poverty and homelessness. I believe education is the ultimate
equalizer and is a crucial component for our students’ success, at any age, including
preparing our students to enter school with Early Care in Education. I would be honored
to receive your vote so that I may continue my work. Together we can change the lives
of our children, one future at a time.

Education and Qualifications:
As an incumbent seeking re-election, I must re-apply for my position as your Fresno
County Assessor-Recorder. As an intelligent voter, you will evaluate my job performance
of the last 3-years and decide if I acted ethically, passionately and effectively on behalf
of our community at every opportunity.
Property assessments, on my watch, have been impartial, equitable and nonpartisan,
and in accordance with the Fresno County Charter and California state laws. It is my
pledge that everyone pays their fair share; no more, no less.
Please consider that, despite budget cuts totaling forty percent, I have implemented
procedural changes and improved operational effectiveness in my office that have
served Fresno County and its residents in measurable and far-reaching ways. As a

Management Services
Education and Qualifications: Degree in Business/Accounting
I have over 25 years of financial management experience in the private sector as
a CPA and business owner that I can bring to Fresno County as your next Assessor.
During my career, I have developed an expertise in business ethics, finance, and
management. As a small business owner, I use this expertise to help local business
owners increase efficiency and expand. I have also served as the CEO of Central
California Blood Center with an annual budget of over $10 million and 125 employees.
Businesses and homeowners rely on stable leadership from the Assessor, which
I will bring to the job. They also deserve excellent customer service. My experience
leading organizations will allow me to effectively manage the Assessor’s office and
make protecting taxpayers its top priority.
These are challenging economic times for our county as our unemployment rate
remains in the double-digits. Our government should only take as much of your hard
earned money as it needs, unfortunately this has not been the case over the past
couple of years. I vow to ensure it keeps that promise, and I hope to earn your vote.

ELIZABETH A. EGAN
Occupation: District Attorney, County of Fresno County
Education and Qualifications:
I am honored to serve as your District Attorney and to be Law Enforcement’s Choice.
I’m proud that our Conviction Rates are higher than the state average.
Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims endorses me. We work together every day to
stamp out gangs and crime. The Fresno Deputy Sheriffs Association, Crime Victims
United, Fresno Sheriff Correctional Sergeants Association, and more than 30,000 Peace
Officers statewide endorse me. They know I protect victims and lock up criminals.
Fresno’s Mike Reynolds, the father of California’s Three Strikes law, endorses me.
He knows I enforce Three Strikes.
This campaign is about who has the commitment and proven track record to put
violent criminals in prison and keep you safe. Our conviction rates are higher because
I beefed up the county’s Homicide, Sexual Assault; and Gang Prosecution units;
established an Elder Abuse Unit; expanded the Consumer Protection Division; added
an Identity Theft unit and lead our Multi-Agency Gang Enforcement group.
I am proud of my reputation as a tough, fair, experienced District Attorney and
champion for crime victims. I’m committed to making our schools and neighborhoods
safer. I’d be honored to receive your vote. Please visit www.EganforDA.com to find out

citizens of our valley safe. I have prosecuted Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, Child
Abuse and Homicide cases, many under the Three Strikes Law. I have trained young
lawyers to become effective prosecutors, been a strong advocate for victims and have
excellent relationships with law enforcement agencies.
