API Leaders Endorse John Noguez

Los Angeles (10/22/2010) — John Noguez, a Deputy Assessor for more than 20 years, is seeking the top spot in a runoff election on Nov. 2. On Oct. 22, U.S. Representative Judy Chu and many other API elected officials endorsed Noguez and called for API voters’ support.

Judy Chu said that Los Angeles County Deputy Assessor Noguez grew up in Huntington Park and was the Mayor of the city. Therefore, he must understand the needs of Asian Americans very well. At the same time, he would be a good fit for the position because of his 25 years working experience in the Assessor’s Office. Judy Chu also pointed out that State Assembly members Mike Eng and Ted Lieu support Noguez as well.

Noguez stated that he feels confident to win the election because he built a campaign two years ago and had received the most endorsements, including four of the five members of the Board of Supervisors and over 200 other elected officials.

Nogues said that if he won the election he would work hard for people’s rights and balance the relationship between tax collection and taxpayers.
