Sonja Shaw
Candidate, California State Superintendent of Public Instruction
A Chino native and former soccer mom, Sonja was elected to the Chino Valley Unified School Board in 2022 and became district president. She is a fierce champion for parental rights, leading the board in landmark battles against California’s extreme education policies. She stood up to CA Attorney General Rob Bonta’s high-profile lawsuit against the district over parental notification. The lawsuit ended in a victory for the district. The district can require notification to parents when students request changes to their official or unofficial records.
Herb Morgan
Candidate, CA State Controller
Herb has nearly 40 years’ experience in finance. He founded investment firm Efficient Market Advisors and grew it to $1.1 billion in assets. In 2017, he sold it to Cantor Fitzgerald, where he serves as Chief Investment Officer. Herb was Board Chair of the San Diego City Employees' Retirement System for 4 years. He is married and the father of two. His proven record of building and managing large-scale financial operations uniquely qualifies him to oversee the state’s massive budget and ensure taxpayer dollars are used wisely.
