Candidate: Tim Covello | Race: San Luis Obispo County district attorney We found Tim Covello, the assistant district attorney and a 21-year veteran of the office, to be experienced in all phases of running the District Attorney’s Office. An exceptional trial attorney, he’s handled complicated cases, including multi-defendant murder trials and death penalty cases. He also has experience in budgeting, supervision and all other facets of administration. Read our endorsement »

Candidate: Bruce Gibson | Race: 2nd District supervisor Gibson, a two-term incumbent, is smart, hard-working and he goes to bat for his constituents, as we saw in the Highway 1 chip-sealing fiasco. At the same time, he knows when to compromise and he always has the long-term future of the county in his sights; for example, he was among the first to sound the alarm about the Paso Robles groundwater basin crisis.

Candidate: Caren Ray | Race: 4th District supervisor Governor Brown appointed Caren Ray to replace the late Paul Teixeira on the Board of Supervisors. We believe the governor made an excellent choice. Ray has been a quick study and she’s shown herself to be an independent and analytical thinker who examines issues from all sides. We’ve been especially impressed by her commitment to workforce housing and, if elected to a full term, we believe she would be an excellent advocate for that critically important issue.
