If you want real change in California, it starts with elevating voices that still value faith, family, and the Constitution. Yet today, a troubling reality threatens that vision:

👉 Only 30% of Californians are showing up to vote.
👉 Among evangelicals, only 50% are even registered to vote.

These numbers are not just statistics — they are a wake-up call.

When millions of values-driven citizens sit out elections, California’s future is shaped by a small, unrepresentative minority. Rising crime, economic hardship, homelessness, and the erosion of parental rights are not happening in a vacuum — they are the result of disengagement.

A Wake-Up Call for Faith-Driven Californians

Despite California’s population of nearly 40 million people, voter participation remains shockingly low. In many elections, seven out of ten eligible voters do not cast a ballot. Even within faith communities that hold strong convictions about morality, family, and freedom, participation remains inconsistent.

If faith-driven voters simply showed up at higher rates — especially at the local and primary level — the political landscape of California could change dramatically.

Spotlight on Pastor Ché Ahn: A Faith-Driven Leader for California

To address this crisis, California Precinct Activators and the 61st Assembly District Republican Central Committee hosted a 2.5-hour X Space livestream on January 22, 2026, featuring Pastor Ché Ahn, a candidate for Governor of California in 2026.

The livestream drew in listeners, grassroots organizers, and community leaders to hear Pastor Ché’s personal story, vision, and call to action.

Who Is Pastor Ché Ahn?

Pastor Ché Ahn is:

  • A Korean American immigrant who came to the U.S. as a child
  • A pastor with 46 years of ministry experience
  • Founder of a global church network spanning 73 nations
  • President of a California-based ministry network
  • A long-time grassroots organizer and pro-life activist
  • Known for standing against COVID lockdowns to defend constitutional freedoms

Now, he is running for governor on a platform centered on faith, family, freedom, and constitutional government.

Key Issues Discussed During the Livestream

The conversation covered a wide range of urgent challenges facing California today:

Faith-Based Leadership & Personal Testimony

Pastor Ché shared his journey through immigration challenges, racism, drug addiction, and eventual transformation through Christianity. He emphasized that spiritual revival combined with civic engagement is essential for California’s renewal.

Judeo-Christian Constitutional Values & Civic Mobilization

A major focus was reclaiming California’s roots as a constitutional republic grounded in Judeo-Christian values. Pastor Ché outlined strategies for:

  • Activating church communities
  • Increasing voter registration
  • Mobilizing faith-based voters at every level of government

Policy Vision for California

Pastor Ché addressed:

  • Public Safety: Increasing law enforcement funding and restoring accountability
  • Economy: Reducing taxes, shrinking government, restoring affordability
  • Energy: Revitalizing oil and nuclear energy while challenging extreme environmental policies
  • Education: Resisting ideological indoctrination and returning to foundational learning
  • Homelessness: Practical, faith-inspired solutions focused on dignity and responsibility

Grassroots Unity & Strategy

Unity among constitutional conservatives was a recurring theme. Pastor Ché emphasized avoiding vote-splitting by working with aligned candidates and building a multi-ethnic grassroots movement across California — from city councils to school boards.

Cultural & Ideological Threats

The discussion also addressed concerns about:

  • Progressive and socialist ideologies
  • Declining birth rates and weakening families
  • Attacks on parental rights
  • Radical ideologies on college campuses
  • Rising anti-Israel sentiment

Pastor Ché positioned himself as a defender of pro-family, pro-life, and pro-Israel values in the face of these challenges.

Why Voter Engagement Matters More Than Ever

With only 30% voter turnout statewide, California’s most important decisions are being made by a fraction of the population. If faith-based and constitutional conservatives increased participation — even modestly — the impact would be felt in elections, policies, and culture.

Key Takeaways from This Event

  • The urgent need for faith-based, constitutional leadership
  • The power of grassroots mobilization and voter registration
  • Clear, practical steps for engagement: vote, volunteer, donate, and serve locally
  • The importance of unity among value-aligned candidates
