Pavley, Runner join pay cut parade

Share: Share on Facebook submit to reddit StumbleUpon Toolbar

An updated list provided by the Controller's Office late yesterday afternoon confirms what Sen. Fran Pavley notes in a comment to my previous post about senators taking pay cuts: Pavley was one 13 additional senators added to the controller's list on Monday to accept voluntary, 5 percent pay reductions beginning July 1.

Also added to the list was another member of Ventura County's Senate delegation, Republican George Runner of Lancaster, whose district includes Fillmore and Santa Paula.

Among the local senators, that leaves just Republican Tony Strickland off the list. As of yesterday evening, only 11 of 40 senators had not yet responded to President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg's request that they volunteer to take a 5 percent reduction.

95 percent accurate
Over the last 23 presidential elections, Ventura County voters have backed the winner 22 times, or over 95 percent of the time. It is one of only a handful of counties in the nation that has been such a predictable bellwether.
