Editorial: Tribune endorses Zacarias for state Assembly seat Democrat
Democrat has a more clearly defined vision than Achadjian Katcho
Katcho Achadjian and Hilda Zacarias have commendable records of public service, along with well-deserved reputations for their hard work, responsiveness and accessibility. Their campaigns have been models of graciousness — both pledged not to engage in nasty attack ads — and we hope the successful candidate can carry that tone of civility to Sacramento.
Choosing one candidate over the other was not easy. We have endorsed Achadjian in the past, and while we haven’t always agreed with his decisions, we continue to believe that he has been a strong supervisor. In the final analysis, though, we found Zacarias to be the better fit for the state Assembly. She is the more moderate of the two, and we believe she will be better able to balance the need for economic recovery while maintaining the environmental protections so vital to the Central Coast.
