Two term California Republican Assemblywoman Audra Strickland or Moorpark should be re-elected Tuesday.

From the left-wing leaning Ventura County Star newspaper:

Twice now in four years, The Star Editorial Board has endorsed Democrat Ferial Masry, a remarkable woman who has run unsuccessfully against incumbent Republican Assemblywoman Audra Strickland in the 37th Assembly District.

This year — the last for which Ms. Strickland can run for the Assembly before she is termed out in 2010 — The Star Editorial Board is endorsing Ms. Strickland….

…However, voters have twice chosen Ms. Strickland over Ms. Masry to represent them in the 37th Assembly District, which includes Camarillo, Ojai, Fillmore, Santa Paula, Moorpark, Thousand Oaks and Simi Valley. This year, the Republican registration lead in the 37th Assembly District has been whittled down to 7 percentage points from 11 four years ago — still relatively safe for a Republican.

Audra Strickland has taken the lead in fighting a California state prison in Camarillo and has voted to keep the tax and spend Democrats in the California Legislature in check.

Audra deserves the 37th district’s support for a third term.
