Templeton, CA— Former Deputy District Attorney and candidate for Assembly, Jordan Cunningham has received the endorsement of Ray Johnson, the former Mayor of Atascadero and a Vietnam veteran.

His ability to work with people, to develop logical arguments for legislative positions and his tireless energy to solve problems make him an outstanding candidate for the California Assembly. Jordan has my fullest confidence and endorsement to be our next representative in the 35th Assembly.”

Cunningham currently serves as the President of the Central Coast Taxpayers Association, a nonprofit organization dedicated to taxpayer education and advocacy for fiscal responsibility. In addition to his work protecting taxpayers, Cunningham is an elected member of the Templeton Unified School District and a dedicated volunteer for numerous youth organizations.
