Former CRP Chair Frank Visco Endorses Runner
Posted By Press Release on August 27, 2009
SACRAMENTO—Senator and Taxpayer Advocate George Runner has announced that former California Republican Party Chair Frank Visco is the latest addition to a broad-based coalition of conservative supporters in his race for Board of Equalization.
“George Runner has been on the front lines in the battle against taxes and excessive regulations in this state for over a decade,” said Visco. “California taxpayers need proven tax fighters like Senator Runner on the BOE now more than ever.”
Most recently, Runner reported having over a quarter million dollars cash on hand in his campaign account, the most of any candidate for Board of Equalization. According to financial disclosure forms filed by all candidates last June, Runner has also spent far less than all other declared candidates—giving him a huge strategic advantage going forward.
George Runner currently represents a large southern portion of BOE District 2 in the State Senate. He is well known statewide for his work in implementing the successful Amber Alert system and passing Jessica’s Law in 2006. He resides in Lancaster with his wife, former Assemblywoman Sharon Runner.
