A state with some 40 million residents is a major task for a United States Senator to represent. Dealing with 58 unique counties and 482 cities is a monumental undertaking. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who died on Sept. 29, endured this role since November of 1992 and did it with distinction.
John Moorlach is the director of the California Policy Center's Center for Public Accountability. He has served as a California State Senator and Orange County Supervisor and Treasurer-Tax Collector.
