The Online Home of California's Political History
A correction: H. B. Ream, a four-term Assemblyman from northern California in the 1910s, was elected as a Democrat in each of his terms. Although he did win the nomination of both the Republican and Democratic parties, an error on JoinCalifornia.com had made it appear that he was elected as a Republican in 1918.
Thank you to Tim Morland of the Office of the Chief Clerk for the correction!
