A message to my supporters:
To every single person who has supported this campaign, whether you donated, put up a yard sign, knocked on doors, shared a post, prayed for us, or simply stood with us in spirit, thank you. This race was never about one person. It was about something much bigger.
As Theodore Roosevelt said:
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles… The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena.”
I’ve been in the arena. And so have you!
For too long, good-hearted, everyday people have stepped back from politics, thinking it’s dirty, hopeless, or “not for them.” But we can’t afford to look away anymore. Our children’s future, their safety, their schools, and their opportunities depend on good people choosing to show up and get involved in whatever way they can. Whether it’s running for office, volunteering, voting, or simply speaking truth in your own circles — your involvement matters.
Tomorrow is Primary Day.
If you haven’t voted yet, please make a plan to get out and vote. Every single vote counts in this county and especially in this crowded race where the establishment insiders are cannibalizing each other with scandals. Bring a friend, a neighbor, a family member. Let’s show Lake County what happens when regular, decent people decide to stand up.
From the bottom of my heart... thank you for being on this team and having the courage to break from the establishments hypocrisy.
Let’s finish strong tomorrow! Let's shock the corrupt system! Let's give the good people of this county the Sheriff they deserve.
Vote Jack Sanchez for Lake County Sheriff !!!!!
Mayor McDermott calls out Chief Steven Flores for taking money from an indicted donor.
Then Jason Gore lectures everyone about accountability.
Then... this happens. If the nimble intel led Jason Gore can't hold himself accountable and lacks the basic knowledge not to record and post yourself driving and toasting with an open container , how can he be expected to hold an entire Sheriff's Department accountable?
Lake County deserves real leadership — not more insiders playing games and embarrassing this Department with scandals before the primary election is even over.
Jack Sanchez is the only candidate who's been working inside the Lake County Jail every day as a special operations response team member. He's the one with a real plan to fix the overcrowding, staffing crisis, and lack of transparency.
No hypocrisy. No double standards. No one is above the law. Purpose Over Politics. True accountability starts at the top. End the corruption and lack of accountability! Share this video and tell your friends and family to:
Vote for Jack Sanchez Tuesday, May 5th !
Due to the scandals that have come to light in the last 48hrs, in my opinion this is now a two man race on Tuesday May 5th. Only two candidates have the integrity it takes to lead this County. If you haven't heard, there is a video allegedly showing Jason Gore drinking and driving or at least holding an open container of alcohol behind the wheel. This shows total lack of judgment. And allegations that Chief Flores took money from the local Mob that was just indicted. Again lack of judgment. Maria has allowed a bank to be robbed while she was supposed to be guarding it. Chief Jenkins can't fix the crisis in the jail that was allowed to fester under his watch. If you want change and accountability in the Sheriff's Office then vote for Jack Sanchez because if the other candidates can't be honest with themselves how can we expect them to be honest with the citizens of Lake County.
Elections have consequences. Please get out to vote for Jack Sanchez this TUESDAY May 5th! The current Special Operations Response Team member, Certified Training Officer who has also served as bailiff for the County Div. 1 Courtroom and as the former Director of the LC Animal Control Shelter. No other candidate has the insider insight to get to work as soon as he is sworn in to fix our broken Jail. Jack is committed to reforming this dept. from within and community focused law enforcement free from federal overreach and outsider influence.

Don't wait until Tuesday May 5th to vote. Here is a list of the early voting locations and times. Cast your vote for Jack Sanchez to end the corruption and elect a true public servant committed to reforming this department from within and community focused law enforcement free from federal overreach and outsider influence.
Thanks to Hometown Happenings for hosting a candidates night and thanks to all who showed up and participated. Elections have consequences and on May 5th we have a chance to make a real change and elect a true public servant who will work relentlessly to protect our families. The establishment candidates are splitting the vote and we have a real chance to surge the polls and make history. So please get out and vote and take your family and friends with you. Let's make history together and let's show them the Lake County Sheriff's Dept. will no longer be bought and paid for. This Office belongs and answers to the hard working people of Lake County.
On May 5th Lake County has a chance to break the mold and change the current direction our community is going in. The choice is ours, continue to elect selfish insiders chasing power and political capital or make a change and elect a true public servant ready to personally sacrifice and work relentlessly to build a safer and stronger Lake County for all of our families going forward.
Before you cast your vote on May 5th ask yourself who will work the hardest to defend our families from all threats? Who has failed at maintaining a functioning Jail? Who has let a bank get robbed while guarding it? Who is endorsed by the current Sheriff? Who has a political handler telling him what and when to do something? Who is the only candidate sacrificing everything to get the word out? Who will only answer to the citizens of Lake County? Which candidate would you want to have your back and your neighbors backs when the SHTF? Only one candidate will defend and uphold the constitution for all Lake County citizens and only one will keep Lake County free from all federal overreach and outsider influence.
