California Elections: the Longest Year Gubernatorial Battle O F Young Political Stars Marred by Voter Disinterest, Dull Campaigns The longest year? We called this election the longest year because so much has happened. A President has resigned office; Vice-Presidents, Congressmen, and Lieutenant Governors have come and gone; there have been no less than four elections in the Santa Barbara area; there has been a plethora of Upsets, sweeps, and surprises: this year has had no tack of political news. The changes this country, this state and this county have undergone in the last six months would have taken ten years in any other era. w But this Tuesday it will be all over. California w ill have elected a new governor as the Reagan administration quietly slips out of Sacramento's back door while the Brown or Flournoy camp slowly moves in from the front followed, no doubt, by packs of eager new legislators who have marched to victory.

    WOMEN AND EQUALITY A California Review of Women’s Equity Issues in Civil Rights, Education and the Workplace California Senate Office of Research February 1999 Dedicated to Senator Rose Ann Vuich Rose Ann Vuich was elected California’s first woman state senator in 1976 and served four terms through 1992. Although a Democrat by registration, she built a reputation as a political independent who shunned deal-making. Throughout her legislative career, Senator Vuich represented her San Joaquin Valley district first and foremost and relied on her own knowledge and judgment to do it. She was reared on a farm in Tulare County, where she has spent most of her life. With a degree in accounting from the Central California Commercial College in Fresno, she worked as an accountant, tax consultant, estate planner and office manager before her election. After becoming a senator she continued, with her brother, to manage the family farm in Dinuba. The California State Senate began to change after Senator Vuich joined its ranks, followed over the years by other women. She kept a small porcelain bell on her Senate floor desk, and would gently but insistently shake it whenever a colleague addressed the “gentlemen of the Senate.” The Senate chamber originally had no women’s restroom. But that oversight permitted Senator Vuich, during a Capitol restoration in the late 1970s, to design a comfortable “Rose Room” where she and women members into the future could retreat from the Senate floor. A daughter of Yugoslav immigrants, Senator Vuich achieved many “firsts,” from serving as the first woman president of the Dinuba Chamber of Commerce to becoming the first woman to preside over a Senate floor session in 1986.
