Superior Court judicial candidate weighs in on the ‘tight like a too small bathing suit’ Sacramento mayoral race

Although Amy Holliday is the apparent winner for the open position on the Sacramento Superior Court, one of the judicial candidates in that race has posted a video on social media saying their candidacy influenced, to paraphrase Dan Rather, the “tight like a too-small bathing suit on a too-long ride home from the beach” Sacramento mayoral race.

Noel Calvillo posted the video below yesterday on Instagram. Calvillo was one of three candidates for the open bench position.

During his campaign, Calvillo noted he would not accept donations from law enforcement associations or attorneys. Holliday, an executive assistant Sacramento County district attorney, was supported by several law enforcement associations.

In the Sacramento mayoral race, Dr. Flo Cofer, who has shaken Sacramento’s political class, is in first place in the four-way race to replace Darrell Steinberg. Cofer is ahead of three primary candidates – Dr. Richard Pan, Kevin McCarty, and Steve Hansen – all of whom are or have held elected office.

Cofer has been campaigning for almost a year and has relied chiefly on individual donations to fund her upstart candidacy. The other three have taken the more traditional route, leaning on labor, business and special interest groups, and independent expenditure committees to fund their campaigns.

Cofer has not posted any reaction on her campaign social media accounts to Cavillo’s posting.
