This just came over the transom from the Jeff Miller for Assembly campaign:Jeff Miller Picks Up Two More Assembly Republican Endorsements
Conservatives Ted Gaines and Martin Garrick join campaign
MISSION VIEJO, CA -- Republican Jeff Miller continued his march toward victory in the June Primary today when he picked up two more endorsements from members of the Assembly Republican Caucus.
Conservative Assemblymembers Ted Gaines and Martin Garrick added their names to the rapidly growing list of endorsers for Jeff Miller in the 71st Assembly District.
"Jeff Miller is an accomplished businessman and also a respected Republican party leader," said Gaines. "Jeff will be a great addition to the Republican Caucus and he will help us stop tax increases and will work with us to rein-in government spending."
Miller is running in the 71st Assembly District, which spans parts of Orange and Riverside counties. The Mayor of the fast-growing city of Corona, Miller is the only candidate with a significant amount of support from Republican members of the Assembly and the only candidate with significant support in both Orange and Riverside counties.
"I am very grateful to receive endorsements from Assemblymen like Ted Gaines and Martin Garrick who are fighting in Sacramento to advance our conservative principles," said Miller.

Mr. Ayer registered as a Republican to be electable in an interim election with no incumbents. He did...
Good for Miller. The guy is a real go-getter who is going to make a great conservative legislator.
Gaines I get. The Gilliard connection, and I'm sure Steve Davey and Powers are friends.
But Garrick? He's usually slow to support people outside of San Diego.
Miller must've really impressed him.
Have you seen the lineup who endorsed Garrick?

For him to support Miller means a lot.
Seems that these legislators are figuring out what we already knew - that with JP out, Miller is unquestionably the most conservative.
Lets see,
JP endorses Miller, but JP voted to give himself and all of his city employees lifetime medical benefits on the taxpayer's nickel, he voted to give taxpatyer subsidies to an auto dealer in his city, he voted to spend $300,000 of taxpayer money on a Rose Parade Float. Some conservative. But if JP endorsed Miller, then Miller must be of like mind. So with credentials like that, I would say that miller is about as conservative as Obama
Well Carona endorsed Neil, so following your screwed up logic, Neil must cheat on his wife and launder money from campaign supporters and use his public agency for personal gain. I wonder if Neil had Saudi Arbian "working girls" serve as "translators"?
I am sure Neil has done none of these....I was making a point.
JP has a huge following in MV and you guys are so frustrated that Miller has any OC endorsements and Neil has Goosegg in Riverside. None. Hope he does better with the voters than the elected officials....
Naw Mark, no worries in the Blais camp. All is under control in MV, and Blais will win that city in a landslide. Just ask all of those JP supporters that have already committed themselves to Neil. I'll take them over a Riverside County endorsement any day.
