Rocklin, Calif. – – Today Republican Small-Business Owner and City Councilman Joe Patterson announced receiving the endorsement of Assemblyman Frank Bigelow (R-Madera) in his campaign for the State Assembly. In the Assembly, Frank Bigelow represents portions of El Dorado County in the newly drawn 5th Assembly District. “Joe Patterson is a fresh conservative leader for the Republican Party,” said Assemblyman Bigelow. “Joe isn’t just talk. Joe has a clear conservative record on the City Council and he is ready to lead. Voters can trust that Joe will be ready to tackle the issues facing California and bring real change, he has my full support.” The endorsement from Assemblyman Frank Bigelow is significant because Patterson now has the endorsements of both members of the Assembly representing El Dorado County and nearly the entire 5th Assembly District. Previously, Patterson announced the endorsements of Assemblyman Kevin Kiley (6th Assembly District) and Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (1st Assembly District). The 5th Assembly District is split between Placer and El Dorado Counties.   For more information about Joe’s campaign including the latest news and endorsements, please visit www.JoePatterson.com.
