Orange County Register

For Don Hall, 67, of Orange, Chris Norby for the 72nd District Assembly seat was a default choice.

Norby, a Republican and member of the county Board of Supervisors, was more conservative and familiar to Hall than Republican Linda Ackerman, a member of the board of directors for the Metropolitan Water District.

“I had to vote for someone,” Hall said after voting at the Community Garden Tower, 3919 W. Garden Grove Blvd., in Orange.

When Hall compared Norby and Ackerman’s experience, Ackerman was less impressive, he said. However, Hall said he didn’t think either of them would do a much better job than the other, if elected.

“I just like Norby a little bit better,” he said.

Hall also was concerned that Ackerman only moved back into the district to run for the Assembly seat.
