Elections
2014
The August 26, 2014, general election in Orange County featured four seats up for election. Incumbents Joie Cadle and Daryl Flynn each faced a single challenger in their re-election bids for Districts 1 and 2, respectively. Both won re-election, defeating candidates Joshua A. Katz and Phil Stump, respectively. Chadwick Hardee, Regina Hellinger, Linda Kobert and Julio Rocha were running to replace District 3 member Rick Roach, who did not file for re-election. None of them received 50 percent of the votes in the general election, so Linda Kobert and Regina Hellinger, the top two vote-getters, advanced to the runoff election on November 4, 2014. Board chair Bill Sublette did not face a challenger on August 26, 2014, but Gene Vernon Hair qualified as a write-in candidate for the November 4, 2014, election.
