Inland Empire, CA – May 3, 2010. 63rd Assembly Candidate, LT Commander (s) Paul Chabot, announces “Surge” in final weeks of campaign.
Chabot, who served in Iraq during the period known as the “Surge,” applies the same military tactic to his campaign during these final weeks to victory.
“This Saturday morning, our campaign launched a groundswell offensive to win over the hearts and minds of undecided voters. We will not take anything for granted, marching forward everyday as if it were our last until we reach victory on June 8th,” said Chabot.
The Chabot Surge began at 0700 hours on Saturday, DAY 1 with Operation Anchors Away.
Anchors Away, the first operation within the Surge brought forth an army of volunteers who put together hundreds of yard signs and then distributed them throughout the district. This true grassroots effort compiled countless number of Patriots, offering their time to build campaign signs and deliver them to the doors of voters. The Chabot Team did not outsource this job – they saved thousands of dollars by finding alternative ways to get the job done; the same tactic Chabot will apply in Sacramento when elected.
Anchors Away II, included volunteers hoisting 8 foot by 4 foot campaign signs in strategic locations throughout the district. The mobile command post was on full display this weekend transporting material and volunteers to the action.

The Chabot Team is asking for $5 donation per yard sign. Signs can be delivered or picked up. Email chabot2010@paulchabot.com for your sign.
Other operations where lead by Campaign Manager Adam Sands, Senior Advisor Brenda Chabot, Deputy Campaign Manager Anthony Garcia, Deputy Campaign Manager Karen DeAquino and Deputy Campaign Manager Keith Paterson. These operations included phone banking, precinct walking and special event planning. Special thanks to the following groups who lead precinct walks this past weekend: University of California Riverside College Republicans, Inland Empire Veterans Coalition, Zeta Tau Alpha Fraternity, Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity.
Chabot personally helped build signs with the volunteers and hoisted them throughout the district during precinct walks. He thanked his staff, volunteers, fellows and interns for a job well done.
Chabot said, “I greatly appreciate our volunteers — you are the true boots-on-the-ground us military type refer to when we speak about those who are getting the job done. Without your devotion and passion, this entire effort would be for not. Thank you for standing by me – great things are happening, together we will cross that victory line and take your ideas and energy to help strengthen our conservative values in California so that we may restore our state to one in which we would all be proud to raise our families.”
On Saturday night, Chabot provided the keynote address to the Riverside Police Officers Association – annual Awards Gala. He spoke before a crowd of 300, including a number of dignitaries. Chabot spoke about the honor of being a law enforcement officer; recognized the spouses of department personnel; addressed drug cartels, gangs and dangerous policies of state mandated early prisoner release.
