Melinda is PROUDLY ENDORSED by:

“Melinda Liu has been an exceptional civil servant for Irvine District 1 for the last 2 years with a proven track record of being able to get things done for her community while being accessible for all residents.

She's also been a strong leader that has united a diverse community and a bright rising star among local AAPI elected. That's why I endorse her re-election to Irvine City Council alongside over 100 other elected, civic leaders, and organizations.”
