LA Times  

Mayor Gracey Van Der Mark and Councilmember Tony Strickland are part of a decidedly conservative four-member slate elected to the Huntington Beach City Council in November 2022. Just three months after being elected to the Huntington Beach City Council, its new conservative majority voted to bar the rainbow flag from flying over City Hall each spring in celebration of Pride Month. “Our City Council majority was elected to shake things up, and we’re doing just that,” said Councilmember Tony Strickland, who started his term as mayor. It’s a place that in 2020 elected Tito Ortiz — a mixed martial arts fighter whose campaign slogan was “Make Huntington Beach Safe Again” — to City Council.
