Doug Ose

Last updated

On September 3, 2013, Ose formally announced his candidacy for his old district, which had been renumbered as the 7th district, [16] in hopes of facing freshman Democrat Ami Bera, who unseated Dan Lungren in 2012. [17] On June 3, Ose qualified for the November general election by ranking second in the open primary with 26% of the vote. He defeated Republicans Igor Birman and Elizabeth Emken. Bera ranked first with 48% of the vote and faced Ose in the general election. [18] The Rothenberg Political Report rated the contest as a "Pure Toss-up"; [19] and even eight days after the November 4 election, the race was still undecided, with Bera leading Ose by just 711 votes at the time with 19,000 ballots yet to be counted. [20] Ultimately, Ose lost the race to Bera by 0.8%.

2018 California gubernatorial race

Ose hinted in 2017 that he was considering running for Governor of California in the 2018 election, telling the Los Angeles Times that he was "gravely concerned" about the state's future, elaborating "there's no other way to describe it – we've gone backwards. I don't care whether you're talking about housing or quality of jobs that are available or road maintenance or the homeless question. There's nobody in office today that's doing anything about it." [21] He announced he would run in January 2018. [22] In February, however, Ose determined this was not the right time. While discussing his decision to not pursue the office at that time, Ose told Fox Business' Stuart Varney: "Cost of housing is out of control, K-12's failing, homeless everywhere, traffic gridlock, no jobs, it's just like...go down the checklist and they're 0 for life." [23] Ose then formed Rebuild California Foundation, a 501(c)(3) Tax-Exempt Educational Organization, to research and propose solutions for the top issues affecting the lives of everyday Californians. [24]

On March 16, 2021, Ose announced his intention to run for Governor of California in the recall election of Gavin Newsom. [25] However, on August 17, 2021, Ose announced he was dropping out of the race after suffering a heart attack. [2] Despite having withdrawn from the race, he received 0.4% of the replacement candidate vote.

Other notable work

Since his departure from Congress, Ose has been a member of the board of directors of the Republican Main Street Partnership, a more traditional conservative movement of Members of Congress. The 501(c)(4) is tied to more than 60 current Members of Congress. [26]

Personal life

Ose is married to Lynnda Ose. They have two daughters, Erika and Emily, who attended Ose's former high school, Rio Americano High School. Their main residence is in the unincorporated area of Sacramento County. [10]

In 2011, when budget constraints forced the closure of Gibson Ranch Park in Rio Linda, Ose applied to run the facility as its private operator. Since Ose began managing the park in April 2011, the regional park was open daily and welcomed about 250,000 visitors. [27] The park, as of December 1, 2019, is now being managed by the Sacramento County Department of Regional Parks. [28]

Along with then-Senator Barbara Boxer, Ose had a cameo appearance in the 2002 Gilmore Girls episode "Those Lazy-Hazy-Crazy Days". [29]
