释义 |
Richard J. "Dick" Monteith (born February 7, 1932 in Los Banos, CA) is an American politician from California and a member of the Republican Party. State SenateA conservative businessman in the agriculture industry, Monteith ran for California State Senate in 1994 against three term Democratic incumbent Dan McCorquodale. The 12th District, formerly based eastern Santa Clara County, shifted entirely into the conservative Central Valley after reapportionment, taking away McCorquodale's natural home advantage.[1] Monteith won in an upset (thanks to that year's GOP tide) and handily won a nasty reelection battle in 1998 against former Democratic Assemblyman Sal Cannella.[2] Congressional RacePrevented from seeking reelection in 2002 because of state term limits, Monteith made an unsuccessful run for the Congressional seat of Gary Condit, who had been defeated in the Democratic primary by Assemblyman Dennis Cardoza. Cardoza beat Monteith 51% to 43% in a district that had been redrawn in favor of a Democrat.[3] Present dayMonteith currently serves on the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors, a position he has held since 2006.[4] References1. ^{{cite journal | title = Complete Election Results | work = StateNet Publications | date = December 1994 }} 2. ^{{cite journal | title = Voice of the Voters | work = StateNet Publications | date = December 1998 }} 3. ^{{cite web | last = Vassar | first = Alex |author2=Shane Meyers | title = Dick Monteith, Republican | work = JoinCalifornia.com | year = 2007 | url = http://www.joincalifornia.com/candidate/5040 | accessdate = 2008-11-01}} 4. ^ Dick Monteith Vice-Chairman Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors] External links
