Travis Allen Interview | Travis Allen for Governor
With five weeks until the June 5th primary and two weeks until voting by mail begins, the California governor’s race is heating up – and things are looking good for Republicans. In a poll by UC Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies this week, the two major Republican candidates in the race to succeed Jerry Brown are battling for second place to make the November runoff behind the leading Democrat, Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom. Both those Republicans are well ahead of Democrat and former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, who dropped to 9 percent in the poll. One of those two Republican candidates for governor, Travis Allen, joins Ed on this week’s show.
In order to save California from Jerry Brown’s disastrous policies, it’s key to vote in the primary on June 5th. “They have run our state into the ground,” Allen says of Brown and Gavin Newsom. “We now have the nation’s highest poverty rate. These crazy laws of the Democrats have gone too far…not in my state.”
Travis Allen Gas Tax Repeal | Travis Allen Sanctuary City Petition
Allen was the first to propose repealing SB-1, the gasoline tax that’s costing Californians over $700 a year in addition to higher vehicle registration fees. This is a good day to have him on the show, because the petition signatures are being turned in today (Friday) – and as of Thursday, Republicans had collected at least 830,000 signatures to repeal the gas tax. That’s more than 300,000 that were needed to put the repeal on the ballot. Tune in to hear what Travis Allen has to say about that and many other issues – including how he has fought the sanctuary state law from day one – on this week’s The Main Event.
