^{The Oxnard Journal Predicts
the Election . . .}

^{With 62,876 Registered
Voters in the City of Oxnard. We need to take a hard look at
Turn-out. Presidential Election Years are by far the greatest for
voter participation. But in Oxnard usually half the voters cast votes
on those occasions. For a Gubernatorial Election year the turn-out is
less::::::about 30-35%. This year, there is very little passion in
the race for Governor of California so we'll base our prediction on a
30% turn-out. That leaves us with 18,861 votes up for grabs.}

^{Partisan demographics put
Oxnard far to the left with a meter-reading of Democrats with an
almost 70%~30% over-ride of registered Republicans. Two candidates
for the Council are Republicans: Dean Maulhardt and Susan Komar. So
this puts Susan in the high numbers with Republicans as she has
garnered some favorable party support and will gain votes based on
party affiliation and being a woman. But, numbers are against the GOP
with the mass voting block being registered as Democrats.}

^{With Council Elections, the
top two vote getters who spawn get to sit on the Council. Here is how
the OxJo sees it coming out. [[sorry
to the candidates who come out third and lower. . . but this is a
prediction and your actions in campaigning and networking can make
these predictions wrong]]}

^{SAUL MEDINA
- - - - - 16,000+ VOTES}

^{Second Seat :::: A real
Toss Up ======= it's gonna be by a spread of less than less than 50 votes}
^{and this spread may be so
small that a possible recount will be demanded by an 'Almost won'}
^{office-seeker. The OxJo
Predicts it will all shake out in this order. . .}

^{AL DUFF
// DEAN MAULHARDT // ANDRES HERRERA - - - - 14,OOO+ VOTES}

^{MARTIN JONES - - - - - 12,000+}

^{SUSAN KOMAR - - - - - 11,000+}

^{ALEX ESCOBEL - - - - - 7,500}

^{ELIAS BANALES Jr - - - 6,000}

^{TIM HAMMONDS - - - - 5,000}

^{MAYOR LOPEZ WILL WIN WITH 14,000+}
