(a) There is no  similar report in English edition of Voice of America.

(born in 1976 in Ho Chi Minh city;  married to Tom Bonikowski; County Supervisor from the First District of Orange County 2007- )
(c) "珍妮特•阮的对手是担任过加州州众议员的荷塞•索罗里欧，他是民主党籍的墨西哥移民。"
(i) Jose Solorio

(born in 1970 in City of Santa Ana, county seat of Orange County; Member of the California State Assembly from the 69th district 2006-2012; his wife [is] Linn [NOT Lynn], a Curriculum Specialist for Santa Ana Unified School District)
(ii) Mr Solorio was termed out. In other words, he could not have sought re-election to the Assembly (but could have run for state senate) in 2012.

("In 1990, California voters adopted the strictest legislative term limits in the nation by approving Proposition 140. The limits allow legislators to serve up to six years in the Assembly (three two-year terms) and eight years in the state Senate (two four-year terms), a maximum of 14 years. Once those individual limits are met, assembly members and Senators are barred from their respective [legislative] houses for life")
(iv) Marisa Lagos, Term-Limits Measure - Prop 28 - Wins Big. San Francisco Chronicle, June 6, 2012
www.sfgate.com/politics/article/ ... ins-big-3612146.php
("Proposition 28 * * * will reduce the time a citizen can serve in the Legislature from 14 years to 12, but allow a member to serve the entire time in one house. Under the 1990 ballot initiative that created legislative term limits in California, lawmakers were allowed to serve no more than six years in the Assembly and eight years in the state Senate")

("Assemblyman Jose Solorio’s wife, Roselinn (Linn) Lee, teaches at Santa Ana’s Valley High School. This Friday, Oct. 22, she is going to receive a prestigious 'Apple of Gold' Excellence in Education Award at the annual Hispanic Education Endowment Fund dinner, which is always held at the Anaheim Hilton Hotel")

(d) "珍妮特·阮是越南裔，夫婿是欧洲裔。索罗里欧夫婦是拉美裔和华裔的结合，让这场选举的族裔牌更加的错综复杂。"
(i) I can not find out what kind of Chinese Linn Solorio is.
(ii) By the way, the Portuguese surname Solório is "unexplained." Dictionary of American Family Names.  (In other words, it is not a Spanish surname. AND Mr Solorio is not an immigrant 移民, either. His ancestors were/are. But most Americams, except Native Americans perhaps, are immigrants, or their descendants.)
