Gina Clayton-Tarvin Prevails In Ocean View Race πΊπΈ
Santa Ana, CA-Returns from election day, November 5, 2024 are in and Trustee Gina Clayton-Tarvin has decisively prevailed. With the trust of the Ocean View community behind her and key support from numerous stakeholder groups, Clayton-Tarvin withstood a massive attack from anti-public school extremists. They spent $70,000 in attack mailers against the 3-term board member only to lose. Voters agreed, lies and deception have no place near our children. District constituents delivered a victory for Clayton-Tarvin and Ocean View's students.
