Chad Bianco: Trump Snub, Cartel Crimes & California’s Corruption Crisis

What was said

"In 2022, they tried to change it because— and they specifically said, and it was joked in Sacramento, it's the Bianco Law. Because of COVID what I did with COVID and then other sheriffs across the state started standing up too. They figured out we can't control the sheriffs, we need to get those people out."

Bianco disclosed that California Democrats changed the timing of sheriff elections from gubernatorial cycles to presidential cycles, calling it 'the Bianco Law' in Sacramento. The move was designed to take advantage of higher Democratic turnout during presidential elections to remove Republican sheriffs who stood up during COVID. A judge ruled they couldn't shorten constitutional terms, forcing them to add 2 years to Bianco's term, which allowed him to run for governor.
