BARTLETT CAMPAIGN OFFERS CANDIDATE PROFILE TO SOUTH
ORANGE COUNTY VIEWERS
ON COX CABLE VIDEO ON DEMAND!
Orange County- The Mike Bartlett for OC Judge campaign announced today that Cox Cable subscribers in South Orange County can now see a profile on the life and career of Michael Bartlett with his ten minute interview that is now conveniently available on this unique feature of Cox Video on Demand.
The Video on Demand interview showcases Mike's service to America as a member of the Navy in the Vietnam era, his education at UCLA and graduation from USC and law school accomplishments from Pepperdine University. Mike's public service journey continues with the work he performed as Deputy City Attorney for Laguna Beach and Stanton that led to his appointment as City Attorney of San Clemente where he worked closely with the City Council, Planning Commission and Administration to protect and serve the residents, taxpayers and business owners. During his tenure as City Attorney, Mike had a close partnership with law enforcement and the Orange County Sheriffs Deputies to address issues such as public safety and code enforcement issues.
Mike's appreciation for law enforcement is showcased with his commitment to public safety, membership with MADD OC, sponsorship donations to the 150-member Orange County Traffic Officers Memorial Foundation and endorsement by the Director of the largest crime victims group in Orange County.
In the interview, Mike explains the need to have a judge who will work closely with specialized police and sheriff units in narcotics, gangs and parole, and work to keep children safe with special prosecutions and supervision of sex offenders. Mike supports 3-strikes and the death penalty.
Mike's compassion for victims and support of law enforcement lead to his receiving the prestigious endorsement of John and Barbara March, the parents of murdered Los Angeles Sheriffs Deputy David March. Mike explains in the interview that he is only one of three judicial candidates in the State of California to receive an endorsement by John and Barbara March.
Mike closes the interview with a heart felt explanation of his support for Veterans, including his attendance at the Khe Sahn 40th anniversary of the Marines battle in 1968 and his support of the Veteran's Memorial at Saddleback College.

Candidate for Superior Court Judge, Mike Bartlett, savored his kick-off campaign event in true Hollywood style and Oscar hospitality with at a “Pre-Oscar” party at Hennessey’s Tavern in Dana Point on Friday evening, February 22. A standing room only crowd of more than 100 attended the event, hosted by owner Paul Hennessey.
With tongue-in-cheek invitations and a send up of the George Clooney legal thriller Michael Clayton, campaign staffers spun the gala event into a red-carpet gala premier for judicial candidate, Michael Bartlett. “Paparazzi” shot the party, with attendees getting into the “Oscar” spirit. The well-attended event had the look and feel of a Hollywood celebrity party.
The candidate’s wife and Dana Point Mayor Pro Tem, Lisa Bartlett, introduced numerous dignitaries, including the mayors of both Dana Point and Laguna Niguel, as well as two candidates for sheriff. Judge John Adams introduced Michael Bartlett, who gave an inspiring speech to an appreciative audience. Bartlett reminisced about his long and distinguished family history, dating to Washington Bartlett, California’s 16th Governor. He went on to describe his goals as judge – to be fair and firm, to follow the law, and to ensure that justice is administered properly from the bench.
Bartlett, a long time business trial attorney, is the former city attorney for San Clemente and the former deputy city attorney for both Laguna Beach and Stanton. One of two candidates for Superior Court Judge, Office #4, Bartlett will bring much needed civil trial experience to the bench.
