Assembly races

In 1998 Maze lost the Republican primary for the California State Assembly against then Fresno mayor pro tem Mike Briggs. He lost the general election as well, although he collected about 8000 write-in votes.[4]

In 2002, then 34th district incumbent Republican Phil Wyman decided to seek reelection in the neighboring 36th district instead, leaving Maze as the sole GOP candidate in the heavily Republican district.[5] Maze won election to the 34th district, which covers Tulare County, Inyo County, Kern County, and San Bernardino County and won easy reelection in 2004 and 2006.

Assembly career

As an Assemblyman, Maze served on the Assembly Budget Committee and the Health Committees, served as Vice Chair of the Agriculture Committee, the Committee on Water, Parks, and Wildlife, and the Business and Professions Committee. The Assembly Speaker also appointed Maze to numerous Select Committees, including the Select Committee on Foster Care, where he served as Vice Chair. Term limits prevented Maze from seeking reelection in 2008. His wife Rebecca tried to succeed him, but she lost in the Republican primary.[4]
