On The Record: Olivier & Arambula On Valley Edition

Clint Olivier and Joaquin Arambula are among the frontrunners in the race for the 31st Assembly District Seat

While election day may still seem far away for many Californians, the residents of the 31st Assembly District don't have to wait until June to vote. Instead they'll be asked to select a candidate in April to fill the seat left vacant after Henry T. Perea resigned last year. That's in addition to the regularly schedule primary in June and general election in November for the seat. Four candidates are vying for the spot, including front runners Clint Olivier , (a Republican) and Joaquin Arambula (a Democrat). Both of them joined FM89's Valley Edition to talk about their careers and how they would lead the residents of the district.
