Information for voters
About this election
The ballot for this election includes both partisan and non-partisan
nominating primaries. Your ballot may also include local non-partisan
contests (County Board of Supervisors, County District Attorney,
Superior Court Judges, Special or School Districts, or/and City offices).
Party-Nominated Offices
If you indicated a political party preference when you registered to vote, you
may only vote for a presidential candidate for that particular party in the
Presidential Primary Election.
The United States Presidential Candidate is nominated by members of his or
her political party through presidential primary elections.
Non-Partisan Offices
Each political party had the option to adopt a party rule, permitting NonPartisan voters to request their party's presidential ballot. This is known as
a cross over ballot. A Non-Partisan voter can ask a poll worker at their
polling place for a ballot for those political parties that allow voters to cross
over. If you are voting by mail, and would like to cross over, be sure to write
down your choice of ballot on the Vote by Mail application. You can find the
application on the back cover of this booklet. If a Non-Partisan voter does
not request to cross over, they will be given a non-partisan ballot, containing
only the names of candidates for voter-nominated offices, local non-partisan
offices and measures to be voted upon at this election.
A majority of votes cast (50 percent plus 1 vote) is required to elect a candidate
for County Board of Supervisors, Judges of Superior Court, County District
Attorney, City Council, or City Mayor. If no candidate receives 50% + 1, a
run-off will occur.
Voter-Nominated Offices
The “Top Two” primary gives voters the ability to vote for any candidate
regardless of party preference. Candidates of every party preference will
appear on your ballot and the candidate's party preference will appear next to
the candidate's name. You may vote for any candidate. The following are
the voter-nominated offices for this election: U.S. Senator, U.S.
Congressional, State Senator and State Assembly.
Only the two candidates receiving the most votes—regardless of party
preference—move on to the General Election. A write-in candidate will only
move on to the General Election if the candidate is one of the “Top Two” votegetters in the Primary Election.

PLEASE NOTE: The order in which candidates' names appear on the ballot is determined by a random
drawing of 26 letters of the alphabet. Additionally, candidates for federal, most state and some local
offices change positions, or "rotate". This prevents a specific candidate's name from always appearing first,

STATEMENT OF CHRIS CHAHINIAN
PARTY PREFERENCE: DEMOCRATIC
STATE SENATOR, 25th DISTRICT
I AM NOT A POLITICIAN. I am a proud first generation immigrant. I came to
this country, got a Master’s Degree, started my own business, got married and
formed a family. I am living the American dream.
California is in serious trouble. Creating new jobs is my top priority. Businesses
need to return to California. Together, we must restore a business friendly
environment so that companies can prosper and grow.
CALIFORNIA SCHOOLS RANK 42nd IN THE COUNTRY. I will take our
students TO BE IN THE TOP 10, giving all of them a true chance at the
American dream. I will Rebuild the image of law enforcement and clean our
Schools from drugs and gangs. I will also reduce college tuition and cut the debt
on student loans. I will provide incentives to companies that hire college students
and veterans.
I will involve the public in the decision making process, protect our Second
Amendment and the right to bear arms, while considering safe gun laws.
I will convert poverty to prosperity by collaborating with the public. The
homeless, mentally ill and drug addicts need to be successful members of the
society.
My involvement in the San Gabriel Valley community in the past 25 years has
been an asset for me, which drove me to seek this office.
I will promote transparency, honesty and personal integrity in public office.
I have the experience needed to tackle these problems.
Let’s make California prosper, safe and strong for all. VOTE FOR CHRIS
CHAHINIAN!

STATEMENT OF ANDREW J. BLUMENFELD
PARTY PREFERENCE: DEMOCRATIC
MEMBER OF THE STATE ASSEMBLY, 43rd DISTRICT
Born and raised in our community, Andrew Blumenfeld is a public school
teacher, a community activist, and a dedicated public servant. After he was
elected to the La Cañada School Board, he quickly earned a reputation as a
fair-minded leader who was able to get things done. As President of the Board,
he provided strong financial oversight and built consensus to improve local
public schools and break down achievement barriers.
As a fifth grade teacher, Andrew Blumenfeld works with children living in
extreme poverty. Each year they beat the odds and are some of the highest
achieving students in the state.
Andrew Blumenfeld will be a powerful advocate for public safety, expanding
public transportation, improving our water and power infrastructure, and
creating an education system that helps every child succeed. Andrew will call for
an audit of the Los Angeles and Glendale Departments of Water & Power to
ensure ratepayer dollars are spent wisely. He will build on his strong record of
eliminating waste, and putting the needs of residents and taxpayers ahead of
special interests.
Andrew Blumenfeld understands that California is far too diverse for
one-size-fits-all legislation. He believes local problems need local solutions, and
will fight to put your needs first.
“As a member of the Assembly, I will fight to get statewide special interests out
of the legislative process and prioritize your voice on our local issues. I humbly
ask for your vote on June 7th.”

STATEMENT OF RAJIV DALAL
PARTY PREFERENCE: DEMOCRATIC
MEMBER OF THE STATE ASSEMBLY, 43rd DISTRICT
No one is ever truly prepared to hear, “You have cancer” – three words that
change your life forever. I was diagnosed with cancer eight years ago and given a
grim outlook. If I hadn’t had proper health care coverage or if medical
advancements weren’t available, I wouldn’t be here and my family would be
bankrupt. Today, we live in a society where even if you’re middle class, you can
be one illness away from lacking the means to survive. I believe that it doesn’t
have to be this way – and that’s why I run the Multiple Sclerosis Hope
Foundation.
We all know someone affected by a debilitating illness – Cancer, Alzheimer’s,
MS, Parkinson’s. I believe there is no such thing as an incurable disease; there
are only diseases that haven’t yet been cured. What if, instead of our politicians
trying to be everything to everyone and accomplishing little, they could do one
thing: fix our broken political system that puts power in the hands of lobbyists
and special interests who stand in the way of reforming our healthcare and
education systems? Imagine the possibilities. We could save lives and give our
children a future worthy of their dreams. As a lecturer at our district’s
community colleges, I’ve seen the possibilities when our students have a fighting
chance.
Together, I believe we can do anything. Let’s use this election to make a real
difference. It’s not about being a Democrat or a Republican. It’s about believing
in something bigger.

STATEMENT OF MARK MACCARLEY
PARTY PREFERENCE: REPUBLICAN
MEMBER OF THE STATE ASSEMBLY, 43rd DISTRICT
Lifelong District resident, Major General (Retired) Mark MacCarley grew up in
Burbank and is currently a resident of Glendale. Having raised his children and
run several businesses and a law firm in the District, his focus has been on the
District’s working families.
A reserve Army Officer in 2001, after 9/11, he was called back to Active Service,
thereafter serving almost 11 years in duty stations around the world, including
Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Upon retiring from the Army he founded the
Veterans Mentoring Project, which helps returning Student Veterans transition
to civilian life.
Believing in “selfless service”, Mark has traveled the district, listening to people
about their concerns. He has set his 3 priorities:
PUBLIC SAFETY - As a Reserve Deputy Sheriff he recognizes the effects of well
meaning but ill-conceived actions such as Proposition 47 and AB 109 prison
realignment. He will work toward common sense solutions.
JOBS - The best way to fight poverty is creating new jobs and economic
opportunity not chasing them away with high taxes and stifling regulations.
Growing the economy will be one of his top priorities.
EDUCATION - We need to reform California’s education system. We are failing
to meet the needs of the next generation and are not providing the educational
opportunities that will allow our children to live out the American Dream.
For Mark, election to the California Assembly is about “selfless service” to the
community. It is not about making a career out of politics.

STATEMENT OF ELAN CARR
CANDIDATE FOR SUPERVISOR, 5TH DISTRICT
Age:
48
Occupation:
Criminal Gang Prosecutor
Tragically, violent crime is up more than 20% in our community. We desperately
need a Supervisor who has real crime-fighting experience, not another career
politician. That’s why I’m running.
Elan Carr’s Crime Fighting Plan:
1) Put more criminals behind bars and keep them there, instead of releasing
felons early onto our streets.
2) Hire additional police to serve in our communities.
3) Stop crime before it starts by investing in afterschool programs and early job
training for at-risk youth.
I’m proud to serve in our military. While deployed in Iraq I lead an
anti-terrorism team in life-saving missions, then prosecuted terrorists who
attacked American troops. And for the last decade I’ve fought dangerous
criminals on our streets as a criminal gang prosecutor - prosecuting some of
Los Angeles County’s most notorious gangs, as well as cases of domestic violence
and animal cruelty. That’s why 66,000 police officers across California have
endorsed me.
Good jobs are key to preventing crime. As Supervisor I’ll cut red tape to grow
our economy and create jobs. And I’ll fix our schools because the way to a good
job is a great education.
I’m running for Supervisor because every family deserves to be safe.

He co-wrote measures providing tax incentives to keep and create good jobs in
Los Angeles County.
To keep neighborhoods safe, Bob helped prevent the release of 10,000
dangerous felons from prison.
As Supervisor, he’ll save tax dollars by reinstating immigration control
enforcement in county jails to more easily deport violent criminals who are here

He will use performance based budgeting to make government more
accountable.
He’ll fight for communities that get shortchanged in transportation dollars and

CITY ATTORNEY’S IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS OF MEASURE N
REPEAL OF CITY’S UTILITY USERS TAX
Residents of Glendale currently pay a Utility Users Tax (UUT) for water, gas
and electricity service. The current rate is 7%. The UUT is a general tax,
meaning that UUT revenues are paid into the City’s General Fund. General
Fund revenues are budgeted by the City Council annually for general City
services, such as police and fire protection, 9-1-1 emergency response, parks,
libraries, and street maintenance and repairs.
If approved by a majority of Glendale voters, Measure “N” would amend the
City’s Municipal Code by repealing the UUT on gas, electric and water service in
its entirety.
This measure is on the ballot because a number of residents circulated a petition
and obtained sufficient signatures to qualify for the ballot under California
Elections law. Therefore, the City Council placed this Measure on the ballot.
If the measure is approved, the General Fund will no longer receive UUT
revenues resulting in a loss of approximately $17,500,000 per year. The UUT is
the City’s third largest source of General Fund revenue (9.5%) after property
and sales taxes. If the UUT is repealed, there would be a significant impact on
the City’s ability to provide services and programs at current levels. The City
Council will have to decide, as part of the budgeting process, whether alternative
revenues are available, or whether City services and programs will have to be
reduced or eliminated. Current options being considered to offset this potential
revenue loss are to: eliminate 53 full-time sworn police officer positions;
eliminate 37 firefighter positions; close the equivalent of two fire stations;
eliminate the Police Department’s DNA Crime Lab; reduce the number of
on-duty paramedics; eliminate the Specialized Fire Department Emergency
Service personnel, including the emergency preparedness unit, the arson
investigator, the hazardous materials response team and the search and rescue
team; eliminate youth anti-gang and anti-drug prevention programs; reduce
pothole repair and maintenance of city streets, storm drains and other critical
city facilities and infrastructure; and, close most libraries in Glendale and
eliminate librarians and library staff.
For a more detailed discussion of the potential impacts of Measure “N”, we refer
you via the hyperlinks below to the Staff’s impartial reports to the City Council.

CITY ATTORNEY’S IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS OF MEASURE N (Continued)
Measure “N” requires simple majority approval of the voters to pass.
A “Yes” vote on Measure “N” will repeal the Utility Users Tax
A “No” vote on Measure “N” will not repeal the Utility Users Tax.

REP LA 045-034
ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE N
Stop the Utility Tax
Argument in Favor of Measure
Taxation and spending are out of control at every level of government. In a
stagnant economy with declining real income, local government continues to
grow.
Even though Glendale’s population is essentially unchanged since 2000, the
General Fund has grown an astonishing 77% from just under $100 million to
$177 million for 2015. In just six years, total budgeted city revenues including
GWP grew from $708 million to $832 million, a whopping 17.6% increase.
In 2014, 10 city employees banked over $300,000 per year; 31 made
$250,000-$299,000; 135 made $200,000-$249,000; 237 made $150,000-$199,000
and 343 made $100,000-$149,000. California’s governor made only
$212,640 in 2014. (Source www.transparentcalifornia.com)
In 2014 the median fulltime city employee received pay and benefits totaling
$105,211. Government elites enjoy pay, pensions and job security the average
taxpayer can only dream about.
It gets worse. We have to pay these people the rest of their lives. Glendale’s
unfunded pension obligations are officially $411.9 million. But the real number,
according to Stanford Institute for Economic Research, could be as much as
$1,425,003,510. (Source: www.pensiontracker.org)
The City Council has caved into the salary demands of public employee unions
and has failed to control the growth of non-essential services. Passing this
measure will reduce utility taxes by $17,500,000, just 9.5% of the General Fund.
The idea that a 9.5% cut can, or should, compromise public safety is extortionate
nonsense.

ARGUMENT AGAINST MEASURE N
Why do Glendale’s most respected leaders and organizations all say vote NO on N?
Glendale’s FIREFIGHTERS and paramedics say vote NO because Measure N
means:
- SLOWER 9-1-1 EMERGENCY RESPONSE times for victims of heart attacks,
strokes, car accidents, fires and other emergencies
- CLOSING two Glendale FIRE STATIONS and eliminating nearly 40
firefighters and paramedics
- Eliminating Glendale’s Emergency Preparedness unit, arson investigator,
hazardous materials response team and search and rescue team
Glendale’s POLICE OFFICERS say vote NO because Measure N means:
- SLOWER POLICE RESPONSE to 9-1-1 crime calls and less investigation to
solve crimes
- CUTTING the number of on-duty POLICE officers
- REDUCING police PATROLS in our neighborhoods that keep our families
and homes safe
- Closing the Glendale Police Department’s DNA Crime Lab for prosecuting
criminals
Glendale’s PARENTS and TEACHERS say vote NO because Measure N means:
- CLOSING most LIBRARIES in Glendale and eliminating librarians that help
students learn to read, do their homework and succeed in school
- Eliminating youth anti-gang and anti-drug programs that keep kids on the
right track and out of trouble
Glendale’s BUSINESS leaders and realtors say vote NO because Measure N
means:
- A less safe Glendale with deteriorating roads and infrastructure drives away
business and good jobs
- More crime in our neighborhoods will DECREASE HOME VALUES
Why is this misguided and poorly written initiative on our ballot? An out-of-town
group collected signatures to put this same measure on the ballot in several
cities. They don’t understand Glendale’s needs or how Measure N will hurt
Glendale.
