MOST CALIFORNIA REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS WON’T COMMIT TO CERTIFYING THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
Yue Stella Yu & Jenna Peterson CalMatters
In January 2021, seven of the 11 California Republicans in Congress refused to certify the 2020 presidential election results, boosting former President Donald Trump’s false claim that he lost in a rigged vote.
Now, as Trump attempts a return to the White House, only a third of California’s Republican U.S. representatives have pledged to certify the results this November.
Only four of the 12 GOP incumbents — who are all seeking another term — have promised to uphold the election results. Of the three GOP challengers in California’s most competitive districts, two — Scott Baugh in Orange County and Kevin Lincoln in the Central Valley — made the same pledge in response to a CalMatters inquiry. And in California’s U.S. Senate race, GOP candidate Steve Garvey made the commitment in February.
The refusal to commit by most GOP congressional candidates comes as Trump and his allies are already casting doubt on the outcome of the November election, stoking fear among election officials of disruptions and violence. Trump has peddled unsubstantiated claims about widespread voting by non-citizens, argued that Vice President Kamala Harris will only win if the Democrats cheat and questioned the constitutionality of Democrats replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the ticket.
The vote by Congress to count all electoral votes that are already certified by each state is the final step in electing a president. Usually a formality, it was anything but after Trump lost the 2020 election to Biden.
On Jan. 6, 2021, a mob of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol. Early the next morning, 147 Republican members of Congress voted to object to the counting of Electoral College votes from either Arizona or Pennsylvania, or both.
All 44 California Democrats in the U.S. House and Senate at the time voted to certify the election.
Eight of California’s current Republican members of
Only one-third of the California GOP congressional delegation has pledged to accept the 2024 presidential election results. And only two incumbents in office in 2021 voted to certify President Joe Biden’s win over Donald Trump in the 2020 race.
Congress were in office, but only Rep. Young Kim — who flipped her northern Orange County seat in 2020 — voted to certify the results without casting doubt on the election outcome. “The constitution does not give Congress the authority to overturn elections. To take such action would undermine the authority of the states,” she said in a statement in 2021.
She told CalMatters she plans to uphold the results of this election as well.
Rep. Tom McClintock was the only other California Republican to vote to certify the election. But he said it was because he believed Congress did not have the constitutional authority to reject the electoral votes — not because he didn’t have concerns about how the election was conducted.
In December 2020, however, McClintock was one of four California Republicans in Congress to file an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court to challenge the election outcome in Pennsylvania, arguing that mail balloting “invites fraud and incubates suspicion of fraud” and claiming that “ballot harvesters” collected ballots with “no chain of custody.” Multiple fact checks found no evidence that there was widespread ballot harvesting or voter fraud during the 2020 election, and courts rejected more than 50 lawsuits Trump and his allies brought to challenge the election results.
McClintock told CalMatters he will vote to uphold the electoral votes for the upcoming election. “Congress’ only role in the matter is to witness the counting of the ballots. Period,” he said.
In 2022, Congress passed the Electoral Count Reform Act, which made it more difficult for Congress to object to election results and clarified the vote counting process. All California Republican incumbents who were in office at the time voted against it.
But even with that new guardrail, political experts say efforts to overturn the election are to be expected now. That’s a stark departure from a decade ago, said Kim Nalder, political science professor at California State University in Sacramento.
with this level of distrust in our basic institutions, and I don’t know what will give to change that, but something has to.”
Veteran lobbyist Chris Micheli said the presidential election results could be challenged again, partly because of how close polls say the race is in seven battleground states.
Harris and Trump are preparing legal teams in the case of a challenge.
“It’s definitely a dark period of American history, both what transpired on Jan. 6, but also earlier that prior December, when members of Congress voted against certifying the election of the clear victor in

“It’s really kind of horrifying that we’ve normalized this abnormal sort of situation,” she said. “We can’t survive
the presidential election,” Micheli said. “Those votes raised the ire of a lot of voters, particularly in California.”
The California Republican Party is confident that the election results will be certified, spokesperson Ellie Hockenbury said in a statement to CalMatters. Still, the party is preparing for issues that may arise.
“To make sure we didn’t leave anything to chance,” she said, the national and state GOP “have invested heavily in an Election Integrity operation to ensure that all concerns are addressed in real time and that Californians can cast a ballot with confidence that it will be received and counted.”
The state Republican Party is firmly behind Trump, who — despite losing to Biden 63% to 34% in 2020 — still won more votes in California than any other state. In a new Public Policy Institute of California poll released Wednesday night, Harris leads Trump 59% to 33% among likely voters. But in the swing congressional districts, likely voters are generally evenly divided.
Rep. Ken Calvert, who represents the 41st District in Riverside County, is the only California Republican member of Congress to commit to certifying the presidential election results this time after objecting four years ago. He also joined in the court brief challenging Pennsylvania’s results in 2020 and advocated for a “thorough investigation” of voter fraud allegations in 2021.
Calvert’s campaign did not say why his position has shifted from four years ago.
Rep. Jay Obernolte, who voted to object to the count, told Southern California News Group in 2022 that he still had “serious constitutional reservations about the things that happened in those two states” — Arizona and Pennsylvania.
Reps. David Valadao and Michelle Steel missed the vote in 2021. Steel said she had tested positive for COVID-19, while Valadao had not been sworn in yet because he also tested positive. However, Valadao said on social media he would have voted to certify the election.
The three incumbents who took office in 2023 will face that decision for the first time
if they win re-election. But not everyone is answering the question: Rep. John Duarte — a Modesto farmer facing a fierce challenge from Democrat Adam Gray — is the only one to state his position publicly, telling The Sacramento Bee he would vote to certify the presidential election. (Duarte did not respond to a CalMatters inquiry.)
Reps. Kevin Kiley, Vince Fong, Doug LaMalfa, Darrell Issa and Mike Garcia, as well as Obernolte and Valadao, also did not respond to CalMatters inquiries. Matt Gunderson, a candidate for the toss-up 49th District in San Diego County, did not respond to CalMatters.
Republicans are reluctant to speak publicly about the issue because they’re concerned about losing votes from Trump supporters, strategists say.
“It puts Republicans in competitive districts in a difficult position,” said Jon Fleischman, former executive director of the California Republican Party.
“Of course they’re going to vote to certify the election results, but they don’t really want to inflame the conservative grassroots side either, because they need them for their Get Out the Vote. So this is an issue that’s divisive for Republicans, and so I don’t think they want to talk about it much.”
For Republicans running in swing districts, the answer to whether they will uphold the election outcome depends on which voters they want to court, Nalder said.
“Coming out strongly in support of certification would make sense if the goal was to recruit some moderate voters or some voters from the other party in these close races,” she said. “But if the strategy is more about turnouts amongst their base … it probably makes sense to equivocate.”
For GOP members of Congress in safe Republican districts, however, the calculation is more about their “future in the party,” Nalder said.
“Assuming Trump wins, they will need to have loyalty exhibited within the party, and so having committed beforehand to something that the party maybe goes against later would not be helpful for their political career,” she said.

LA MAYORÍA DE LOS REPUBLICANOS DE CALIFORNIA EN EL CONGRESO NO SE COMPROMETERÁN A CERTIFICAR LAS ELECCIONES PRESIDENCIALES DE 2024
Solo un tercio de la delegación del Partido Republicano de California en el Congreso se ha comprometido a aceptar los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales de 2024. Y solo dos de los titulares de cargos en 2021 votaron para certificar la victoria del presidente Joe Biden sobre Donald Trump en la contienda de 2020.

CalMatters
Enenero de 2021, siete de los 11 republicanos de California en el Congreso se negaron a certificar los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales de 2020, lo que reforzó la falsa afirmación del expresidente Donald Trump de que perdió en una votación amañada.
Ahora, mientras Trump intenta regresar a la Casa Blanca, sólo un tercio de los representantes republicanos de California se han comprometido a certificar los resultados en noviembre.
Solamente cuatro de los 12 republicanos en el cargo —que aspiran a un nuevo mandato— han prometido defender los resultados de las elecciones. De los tres contrincantes republicanos en los distritos más competitivos de California, dos —Scott Baugh en el condado de Orange y Kevin Lincoln en el Valle Central— hicieron la misma promesa en respuesta a una consulta de CalMatters. Y en la carrera al Senado de Estados Unidos por California, el candidato republicano Steve Garvey hizo el mismo compromiso en febrero.
La negativa de la mayoría de los candidatos republicanos al Congreso a comprometerse se produce en un momento en que Trump y sus aliados ya están poniendo en duda el resultado de las elecciones de noviembre, alimentando el temor entre los funcionarios electorales de que haya interrupciones y violencia. Trump ha difundido afirmaciones infundadas sobre la votación generalizada de los no ciudadanos, argumentó que la vicepresidenta Kamala Harris solamente ganará si los demócratas hacen trampa y cuestionó la constitucionalidad de que los demócratas reemplacen al presidente Joe Biden en la cima de la lista.
La votación del Congreso para contar todos los votos electorales que ya están certificados por cada estado es el paso final para elegir a un presidente. Habitualmente, se trata de una formalidad, pero no lo fue en absoluto después de que Trump perdiera las elecciones de 2020 frente a Biden.
El 6 de enero de 2021, una turba de partidarios de Trump irrumpió en el Capitolio de Estados Unidos. A primera hora de la mañana siguiente, 147 miembros republicanos del Congreso votaron a favor de oponerse al recuento de los votos del Colegio Electoral de Arizona o Pensilvania, o de ambos.
Los 44 demócratas de California en la Cámara de Representantes y el Senado de Estados Unidos en ese momento votaron para certificar la elección.
Ocho de los actuales miembros republicanos del Congreso de California estaban en funciones, pero solo la representante Young Kim, que en 2020 perdió su escaño en el norte del condado de Orange, votó para certificar los resultados sin poner en duda el resultado de las elecciones. “La constitución no le da al Congreso la autoridad para anular las elecciones. Tomar tal acción socavaría la autoridad de los estados”, dijo en una declaración en el 2021.
Ella dijo a CalMatters que planea defender los resultados de esta elección también.
El representante Tom McClintock fue el único republicano de California que votó a favor de certificar la elección, pero dijo que lo hizo porque creía que el Congreso no tenía la autoridad constitucional para rechazar los votos electorales, no porque no le preocupara cómo se llevaron a cabo las elecciones.
Sin embargo, en diciembre de 2020, McClintock fue uno de los cuatro republicanos de California en el Congreso que presentaron un escrito amicus curiae ante la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos para impugnar el resultado de las elecciones en Pensilvania, argumentando que el voto por correo “invita al fraude e incuba sospechas de fraude” y afirmando que los “recolectores de votos” recogieron las papeletas “sin cadena de custodia”. Múltiples verificaciones de hechos encontraron evidencia de que hubo una recolección generalizada de votos o fraude electoral durante las elecciones de 2020, y los tribunales rechazaron más de 50 demandas que Trump y sus aliados presentaron para impugnar los resultados de las elecciones.
McClintock dijo a CalMatters que votará para mantener los votos electorales en las próximas elecciones. “El único papel del Congreso en este asunto es presenciar el recuento de votos. Punto”, dijo.
En 2022, el Congreso aprobó la Ley de Reforma del Conteo Electoral, que dificultó al Congreso objetar los resultados electorales y aclaró el proceso de recuento de votos. Todos los republicanos de California que estaban en el cargo en ese momento votaron en contra.
Pero incluso con esa nueva barrera de protección, los expertos políticos dicen que ahora es de esperar que se intente revertir la elección. Eso es un cambio radical respecto de hace una década, dijo Kim Nalder, profesora de ciencias políticas en la Universidad Estatal de California en Sacramento.
“Es realmente horrible que hayamos normalizado este tipo de situación anormal”, dijo. “No podemos sobrevivir con este nivel de desconfianza en nuestras instituciones básicas, y no sé qué se hará para cambiar eso, pero algo debe hacerse”.
El veterano cabildero Chris Micheli dijo que los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales podrían ser impugnados nuevamente, en parte debido a lo reñida que es la con-
El representante Jay Obernolte, quien votó a favor de oponerse al recuento, dijo a Southern California News Group en 2022 que todavía tenía “serias reservas constitucionales sobre las cosas que sucedieron en esos dos estados”: Arizona y Pensilvania.
Los representantes David Valadao y Michelle Steel no pudieron votar en 2021. Steel dijo que ella había dado positivo por COVID-19, mientras que Valadao aún no había sido juramentado porque también dio positivo. Sin embargo, Valadao dijo en las redes sociales que habría votado para certificar la elección.
tienda en siete estados en disputa, según las encuestas. Tanto Harris como Trump están preparando equipos legales en caso de una impugnación.
“Es sin duda un período oscuro de la historia estadounidense, tanto por lo que ocurrió el 6 de enero como por lo que ocurrió en diciembre pasado, cuando los miembros del Congreso votaron en contra de certificar la elección del claro vencedor de las elecciones presidenciales”, dijo Micheli. “Esos votos provocaron la ira de muchos votantes, particularmente en California”.
El Partido Republicano de California confía en que los resultados de las elecciones serán certificados, dijo la portavoz Ellie Hockenbury en una declaración a CalMatters. Aun así, el partido se está preparando para los problemas que puedan surgir.
“Para asegurarnos de no dejar nada al azar”, dijo, el Partido Republicano nacional y estatal “ha invertido mucho en una operación de Integridad Electoral para garantizar que se aborden todas las inquietudes en tiempo real y que los californianos puedan emitir su voto con la confianza de que será recibido y contado”.
El Partido Republicano del estado apoya firmemente a Trump, quien, a pesar de perder ante Biden por 63% a 34% en 2020, aún ganó más votos en California que en cualquier otro estado. En una nueva encuesta del Instituto de Políticas Públicas de California publicada el miércoles por la noche, Harris lidera a Trump por 59% a 33% entre los votantes probables. Pero en los distritos electorales clave, los votantes probables generalmente están divididos de manera uniforme.
El representante Ken Calvert, que representa al distrito 41 del condado de Riverside, es el único miembro republicano del Congreso de California que se ha comprometido a certificar los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales esta vez después de oponerse hace cuatro años. También se unió a la corte que impugnó los resultados de Pensilvania en 2020 y abogó por una “investigación exhaustiva” de las acusaciones de fraude electoral en 2021.
La campaña de Calvert no explicó por qué su posición cambió respecto de hace cuatro años.
Los tres titulares que asumieron el cargo en 2023 se enfrentarán a esa decisión por primera vez si ganan la reelección. Pero no todos responden a la pregunta: el representante John Duarte, un granjero de Modesto que enfrenta un feroz desafío por parte del demócrata Adam Gray, es el único que ha expresado su posición públicamente, al decirle a The Sacramento Bee que votaría para certificar la elección presidencial. (Duarte no respondió a una consulta de CalMatters).
Los representantes Kevin Kiley, Vince Fong, Doug LaMalfa, Darrell Issa y Mike García, así como Obernolte y Valadao, tampoco respondieron a las consultas de CalMatters. Matt Gunderson, candidato por el indeciso distrito 49 del condado de San Diego, no respondió a CalMatters.
Los republicanos se muestran reacios a hablar públicamente sobre el tema porque les preocupa perder votos de los partidarios de Trump, dicen los estrategas.
“Esto pone a los republicanos en distritos competitivos en una posición difícil”, dijo Jon Fleischman, ex director ejecutivo del Partido Republicano de California.
“Por supuesto que votarán para certificar los resultados de las elecciones, pero tampoco quieren inflamar a las bases conservadoras, porque las necesitan para su campaña de movilización de votantes. Así que este es un tema que genera división entre los republicanos, y no creo que quieran hablar mucho de ello”.
Para los republicanos que se presentan en distritos clave, la respuesta a si mantendrán o no el resultado de las elecciones depende de a qué votantes quieran cortejar, dijo Nalder.
“Apoyar firmemente la certificación tendría sentido si el objetivo fuera reclutar algunos votantes moderados o algunos votantes del otro partido en estas contiendas tan reñidas”, dijo. “Pero si la estrategia tiene más que ver con la participación de sus bases… probablemente tenga sentido equivocarse”.
Sin embargo, para los miembros del Congreso del Partido Republicano en distritos republicanos seguros, el cálculo tiene más que ver con su “futuro en el partido”, dijo Nalder.
“Si Trump gana, necesitarán demostrar lealtad dentro del partido, por lo que haber comprometido de antemano con algo a lo que el partido puede oponerse más adelante no sería útil para su carrera política”, dijo.

HOW CALIFORNIANS CAN VOTE
As the November 5 elections near, here is information on when, where and what to do if you encounter issues while voting
Selen Ozturk Ethnic Media Services
WithNovember 5 days away, how can Californians make sure their vote counts?
“We’re in a political environment where there’s a lot of unreliable information, and the number one question I get asked is: ‘Where do I vote?’” said Joe Kocurek, California deputy secretary of state for communications, at a Friday, October 25 Ethnic Media Services briefing about the ways that Californians can vote.
California’s over 22 million voters constitute the largest number in the nation.
Those wanting to vote in person can find their nearest polling place at www.sos.ca.gov/elections/polling-place.
While it’s too late to register to vote online, Californians can still register in-person with an ID and vote on the same day at their local polling place or county elections office.
“In-person registration is conditional with a provisional ballot, which means that the voter will go through the same eligibility auditing process we would with any other. Your vote will be counted once we have concluded the process,” continued Kocurek.
Voters — including those living out of state but registered in California — can also vote by mail, by sending the ballot to their local county elections office, dropping it off at a secure drop box or returning it to their local polling place.
“As long as the envelope is postmarked on Election Day, November 5, and received by the 12th, it will be processed and counted,” he explained. “If people feel like their mail isn’t reliable, they should send it as soon as they possibly can, or drop it off at a box or polling center, many of which open days or weeks early.”
Ballots postmarked by the 12th but received after November 5, alongside provisional ballots, will be tallied during the official canvass period in the 30 days after Election Day.
After county officials finalize the official vote results within those 30 days after the election, i.e. December 5, the Office of the Secretary of State will certify the results within 38 days after the election, i.e. December 13.
“Voters need to sign the back of their return envelope, because we use that to verify their identity when we receive things through the mail,” Kocurek added. “We default to enfranchising people. If there’s a signature that isn’t there, or is different than your usual, your local elections office will reach out to you and attempt to rectify it.”
Voters who requested absentee ballots can still use them to vote in-person at a drop box or polling center if they wish.
Those who make a mistake on their ballot can apply for a replacement, or apply to provide a vote-by-mail ballot to their representative; both of these applications must be returned to a voter’s local county election office.
Californians can check their voter status at www. sos.ca.gov/elections/registration-status/, and track their ballot online, by text, by call or over email at california.ballottrax.net/voter/.
The California Secretary of State Office also offers voter hotlines and information guides in 10 languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Tagalog, Thai, Vietnamese and TTY/TTD (for those who are dead, hearing impaired or speech impaired).
“In California, we believe in democracy. We really work hard to ensure easy access and easy re-
turn of ballots,” said Kocurek. “We have a Voter Bill of Rights, and if anyone feels like these are being denied, they can reach out to us through our voter hotline or by email.”
“I encourage people to plan how they’re going to vote,” he continued. “I think that’s especially important for younger voters, for whom most everything else can be taken care of on their phones, as opposed to this more old-fashioned way of finding their nearest polling place or using snail mail.”
“Whether you return the ballot in person, mail it or drop it off, if voters think about how they’re going to do it, they’re that much more likely to do it,” Kocurek added.

Q&A: KIMBERLY AKIMBO AND THE POWER OF LIVING IN THE MOMENT
Arturo Hilario El Observador
MiguelGil is a Venezuelan cast member with the 2023 fivetime Tony Award-winning musical Kimberly Akimbo, which is coming in a limited engagement to BroadwaySF’s Curran Theatre from Wednesday November 6 through Sunday December 1, 2024.
The show, which was the most critically-acclaimed musical of the 2023 season, follows the life of Kimberly, an optimistic 15 year-old who is dealing with the relatable issues of a teenager: her first crush, dysfunctional family dynamics, and navigating high school. But, on top of this she is also dealing with a rare genetic illness that ages her at four times the normal rate, and the possibility that she committed a felony in order to help out family.
The show won Best Musical amongst its five Tony’s with audiences and critics alike remarking on the hilarious and heartbreaking tone of the show and its subject matter.
Recently Gil, who worked on the original Broadway production as well as the current touring production, shared his experience of working on the road, what it was like to book the role, his favorite aspects of the story and how he relates to its overall message and his role of Kimberly’s friend Seth, and the impact he feels in being seen as a role model for other Latinos who see him on stage.
More info and tickets to Kimberly Akimbo available at broadwaysf. com.
What was your path to the stage and your inspirations to get into the theater arts?
I always liked singing. So, like, growing up, I was in choir at school and at church. My mom used to call me like a 'living jukebox' because I would just be in the car, like, singing whatever was on the radio, and I just knew all the words. And through choir, I kind of got introduced to theater in my middle school. And even then, I wasn't sure I really enjoyed it because it was kind of like something I felt like I had to be a part of instead of something I wanted to do on my own. And then when I got into high school, they had this theater competition. And I got to kind of experience what it's like to see someone really, really commit to something. And I didn't really know
I have had so many conversations about how special it feels to know that we are the next generation of artists that are coming up and that it's us Latinos that are working hard to continue this art.
--Miguel Gil
you could even commit that hard to theater. And that really inspired me and made me want to be like them. then got into voice lessons and started really being almost obsessed. was listening to musicals every day, trying to learn as much as possible.
And then got to go to the Jimmy Awards my senior year, virtually, which is a national theater competition where they choose high schoolers from basically every state. And so I was one of the central Florida nominees. And getting to do that, got to meet casting directors from New York, and I got to audition for
Kimberly Akimbo when it was going off Broadway and got down to final callbacks between me and the guy who played it on Broadway, Justin Cooley.
And then I didn't get it. So, went back to Shenandoah University for musical theater for a year. And then when they were transferring to Broadway, they called me and asked me to be the understudy for Justin. And so obviously that was the dream and so I did that. Now it's like such an honor to get to do the role on tour.
Could you touch on the story of
Kimberly Akimbo and why you feel the show has been so popular and captivating with audiences and critics? And do you think that show, the show connects to you personally, if at all?
The story of the show follows Kim, a 16-year-old girl who is diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder that makes her age four times faster than she should. And so it's kind of a coming-of-age story and it's funny and it's moving, and she has to deal with so many things. And my role is I get to play her like her best friend Seth. They're both kind of outsiders and they meet each other in a moment when she's about to turn 16, which is the average life expectancy for this disease.
And it becomes kind of like a huge adventure for them, basically making the most of the time that she has. And think it's super touching because I think that it's just a reminder to people that our time is limited and making the most of it is such a joy. It's also a story about connection and friendship. And that as well is something that is so relatable and something that is moving.
And I think I personally relate to the story of Seth as a character because he's like a nerd in a lot of ways. He loves anagrams and he's such a wordsmith and he plays the tuba. I played the cello when was a child and the idea of carrying around a giant instrument is something that I totally understand. And I also was playing Dungeons and Dragons and video games and [reading] comic books. Like, that was my stuff. So getting lost in a world outside of reality is something that's so relatable for me.
Then the idea of seeing someone like him and seeing her for her and not for her disease is my favorite part about this character. And also, he lives in the present in a way that I strive to do. So honestly, playing Seth has just, like, taught me and reminded me that, like, me as Miguel is enough. And honestly, that's the best version of me, not any other version that I try to put on, and that's something learned from him every night, just by the way that he is unapologetically himself.
What's your favorite aspect of the show? Like, a favorite point of the show?
I feel like I have a lot of things about the show that I really think are special. Like, my character, specifically,
he has a really cool arc in the sense that he is the same guy the whole show, obviously, but he has to kind of grow up with Kim really quickly throughout the show, like helping her deal with this disorder.
They have a really special moment when they sing a duet called "Now", and he's kind of like reeling her back in and, reminding her that we have now, there is still this moment, and to take it in and not live in the, “what’s gonna happen in a few weeks?"
That's just such a beautiful moment. And it's also a reminder to me as Miguel to be there in that moment with Carolee Carmello, who plays Kim. The show itself is so thought out. Every single musical note, even the transitions, are purposeful in a way that it's not just a big, grandiose show, but it has such a heart, you know?
There's a big fight scene towards the finale, and it's maybe one of the most brilliantly written scenes, in my opinion. Just in the sense that there's so much that has been built up throughout the show. And it's just like, a beautiful expression of, like, letting it all go in a way that just feels right. And that's my way of explaining it without giving away little details.
Being Latino, what has the experience been of being on stage and knowing that there's people out there that look up and might see themselves in you. That maybe there is kids that believe that they can also see a future on the stage?
I mean that in itself makes me, like,
so inspired and want to do this, like, forever. have, like, a Venezuelan flag in my dressing room, and every time I'm about to go on stage look at it and I'm like, "Llegamos. We made it." The fact that I'm here and it's what I've dreamed about my entire life. And I know that my parents are so proud of me, and they worked so hard so can be here. So that in itself makes every single show feel like it’s opening night.
And the idea of representation, like not just me. One of my best friends just started doing The Notebook, and he [plays] young Noah, and I have had so many conversations about how special it feels to know that we are the next generation of artists that are coming up and that it's us Latinos that are working hard to continue this art.
had people who really inspired me growing up and to know that if I have any kind of impact on other people that are Latinos as well, that they want to chase after their dream of doing theater, then that was my goal. And I know that if I'm a part of that, then I'm making myself fulfilled, you know, that's what I want to be doing. What do you hope that audiences take away from Kimberly Akimbo when it comes to San Francisco in November?
Well, I hope that audiences are leave feeling uplifted. I hope that they have a full emotional journey alongside with us and that they see that the story of Kim is the same as all of us in the sense that, "why not make the most of the time we have and make life a great adventure?"

Q&A: KIMBERLY AKIMBO EL PODER DE VIVIR EL MOMENTO
El miembro del elenco Miguel Gil habla sobre su experiencia en la gira nacional de la aclamada comedia musical que se presentará en el Curran Theatre de San Francisco del 6 de noviembre al 1 de diciembre de 2024.

Miguel
Gil es miembro del elenco venezolano del musical Kimberly Akimbo cinco veces ganador del premio Tony en 2023, que llegará en un compromiso limitado al Curran Theatre de BroadwaySF desde el miércoles 6 de noviembre hasta el domingo 1 de diciembre de 2024.
El programa, que fue el musical más aclamado por la crítica de la temporada 2023, sigue la vida de Kimberly, una optimista joven de 15 años que está lidiando con los problemas identificables de una adolescente: su primer enamoramiento, dinámica familiar disfuncional y navegar la preparatoria. Pero, además de esto, también está lidiando con una rara enfermedad genética que la envejece cuatro veces más que lo normal, y la posibilidad de que haya cometido un delito grave para ayudar a su familia.
El programa ganó el premio al Mejor Musical entre sus cinco Tony y tanto el público como los críticos destacaron el tono hilarante y desgarrador del programa y su tema.
Recientemente, Gil, quien trabajó en la producción original de Broadway así como en la producción en gira actual, compartió su experiencia trabajando en la gira,
cómo fue asegurar el papel, sus aspectos favoritos de la historia, cómo se relaciona el mensaje general con su papel de Seth, el amigo de Kimberly, y el impacto que siente al ser visto como un modelo a seguir para otros latinos que lo ven en el escenario.

¿Cuál fue tu camino hacia los escenarios y qué te inspiró para adentrarte en las artes teatrales?
Siempre me gustó cantar. Entonces, mientras crecía, estaba en el coro de la escuela y de la iglesia. Mi mamá solía llamarme como una 'máquina de discos viviente' porque estaba en el auto cantando lo que estuviera en la radio y me sabía todas las letras. Y a través del coro, conocí el teatro en mi escuela secundaria. E incluso entonces, no estaba seguro de haberlo disfrutado realmente porque era algo de lo que sentía que tenía que ser parte en lugar de algo que quería hacer por mi cuenta. Y luego, cuando entré a la preparatoria, tenían este concurso de teatro. Y tuve la oportunidad de experimentar lo que es ver a alguien realmente comprometido con algo. Realmente no sabía que podías comprometerte tanto con el teatro. Y eso

me inspiró y me hizo querer ser como ellos. Luego comencé a tomar lecciones de canto y comencé a estar casi obsesionado. Escuchaba musicales todos los días, tratando de aprender tanto como fuera posible.
Luego pude asistir virtualmente a los premios Jimmy en mi último año, una competencia nacional de teatro en la que eligen a estudiantes de secundaria de prácticamente todos los estados. Y entonces fui uno de los nominados del centro de Florida. Y al hacer eso, conocí a directores de casting de Nueva York, hice una audición para Kimberly Akimbo cuando estaba saliendo de Broadway y comencé a realizar las últimas llamadas con el chico que la interpretó en Broadway, Justin Cooley.
Pero no lo obtuve. Entonces, regresé a la Universidad de Shenandoah para estudiar teatro musical por un año. Y luego, cuando se estaban transfiriendo a Broadway, me llamaron y me pidieron que fuera el suplente de Justin. Obviamente era un sueño, así que lo hice. Ahora es un gran honor poder hacer el papel en la gira.
¿Podrías hablarnos de la historia de Kimberly Akimbo y de por qué crees que el programa ha sido tan popular y cautivador entre el público y la crítica? ¿Y crees que ese programa conecta personalmente contigo?
La historia del show sigue a Kim, una chica de 16 años a la que le diagnostican un raro trastorno genético que la hace envejecer cuatro veces más rápido de lo que debería. Y entonces es una especie de historia sobre la mayoría de edad, es divertida y conmovedora, y ella tiene que lidiar con tantas cosas. Mi papel es interpretar a su mejor amigo, Seth. Ambos son una especie de outsiders y se conocen en un momento en el que ella está a punto de cumplir 16 años, que es la esperanza de vida media para esta enfermedad.
Y se convierte en una especie de gran aventura para ellos, básicamente aprovechando al máximo el tiempo que ella tiene. Y creo que es muy conmovedor porque es sólo un recordatorio para la gente de que nuestro tiempo es limitado y aprovecharlo al máximo es un gran placer. También es una historia sobre la conexión y la amistad. Y eso también es algo con lo que nos identificamos, es muy conmovedor.
Si tengo algún tipo de impacto en otras personas que también son latinos y quieren perseguir su sueño de hacer teatro, entonces esa era mi meta. Y sé que si soy parte de eso, entonces me sentiré realizado, ya sabes, eso es lo que quiero hacer.
-Miguel Gil
Creo que personalmente me identifico con la historia de Seth porque es como un nerd en muchos sentidos. Le encantan los anagramas, es un gran creador de palabras y toca la tuba. Tocaba el violonchelo cuando era niño y la idea de cargar con un instrumento gigante es algo que entiendo totalmente. Y también jugaba Dungeons and Dragons, videojuegos y [leía] cómics. Eso era lo mío. Así que perderme en un mundo fuera de la realidad es algo con lo que me identifico mucho.
Entonces la idea de ver a alguien como él y verla por ella y no por su enfermedad es mi parte favorita de este personaje. Además, él vive el presente de una manera que yo me esfuerzo por hacerlo. Honestamente, interpretar a Seth simplemente me enseñó y me recordó que yo como Miguel soy suficiente. Y honestamente, esa es la mejor versión de mí, no cualquier otra versión que quiera presentar, y eso es algo que aprendí de él todas las noches, simplemente por la forma en que él es él mismo sin ofrecer disculpas. ¿Cuál es tu aspecto o punto favorito del show?
Siento que hay muchas cosas sobre el show que realmente creo que son especiales. Mi personaje, específicamente, tiene un arco muy genial en el sentido de que es el mismo tipo durante todo el programa, obviamente, pero tiene que crecer con Kim muy rápido durante todo el programa, como ayudarla a lidiar con este trastorno.
Tienen un momento realmente especial cuando cantan un dueto llamado "Now", y él es como si la recuperara y le recordara que aún tienen el ahora, que todavía existe este momento, y que lo asimile y no viva en el "¿Qué pasará en unas semanas?"
Es un momento tan hermoso. Y es un recordatorio para mí, como Miguel, de estar presente en el momento con Carolee Carmello, quien interpreta a Kim. El espectáculo en sí está muy pensado. Cada nota musical, incluso las transiciones, tienen un propósito de tal manera que no es solo un espectáculo grande y grandioso, sino que tiene mucho corazón, ¿sabes?
Hay una gran escena de pelea cerca del final y, en mi opinión, es quizás una de las escenas mejor escritas. Simplemente en el sentido de que se han acumulado muchas cosas a lo largo del programa. Y es como una hermosa expresión de dejar que todo vaya de una manera que se siente bien. Esa es mi manera de explicarlo sin revelar detalles.
Siendo latino, ¿Cuál ha sido la experiencia de estar en el escenario y saber que hay gente que mira hacia arriba y puede identificarse a sí misma en ti, que tal vez haya niños que puedan ver un futuro en los escenarios?
Eso en sí mismo me inspira mucho y quiero hacer esto para siempre. Tengo como una bandera venezolana en mi camerino, y cada vez que estoy a punto de subir al escenario la miro y digo: "Llegamos. Lo logramos". El hecho de que estoy aquí y que es lo que he soñado toda mi vida. Y sé que mis padres están muy orgullosos de mí y trabajaron muy duro para que yo pueda estar aquí. Eso en sí mismo hace que cada espectáculo parezca la noche de estreno.
Y la idea de representación, no sólo me gusta a mí. Uno de mis mejores amigos acaba de empezar a hacer The Notebook, interpreta al joven Noah, y he tenido muchas conversaciones sobre lo especial que se siente saber que somos la próxima generación de artistas que están surgiendo y que somos nosotros los latinos. que están trabajando duro para continuar con este arte.
Tuve personas que realmente me inspiraron mientras crecía y saber que si tengo algún tipo de impacto en otras personas que también son latinas, que quieren perseguir su sueño de hacer teatro, entonces ese era mi objetivo. Y sé que si soy parte de eso, entonces me sentiré realizado, ya sabes, eso es lo que quiero hacer. ¿Qué esperas que el público se lleve de Kimberly Akimbo cuando llegue a San Francisco en noviembre?
Bueno, espero que el público se sienta animado. Espero que tengan un viaje emocional junto a nosotros y que vean que la historia de Kim es la misma que la de todos nosotros en el sentido de "¿Por qué no aprovechar el tiempo que tenemos y hacer de la vida una gran aventura?".

¿POR QUÉ LOS PRIMEROS CINCO PIES?
Las brasas de un incendio forestal suelen asentarse en los cinco pies alrededor de las estructuras. Retirar el material combustible es fundamental para reducir las igniciones.
Cómo cinco pies de espacio podrían salvar su casa durante un incendio forestal.
CONSEJOS PARA UN ESPACIO DEFENDIBLE
El Espacio Defendible es un área alrededor de su casa (hasta 100 pies o el límite de su propiedad) que está libre de material inflamable o vegetación. Un estudio de 2019 CAL FIRE descubrió que las estructuras que no seguían las pautas de espacio defendible tenían cinco veces más probabilidades de ser destruidas por incendios forestales. Investigaciones adicionales muestran que el área que rodea inmediatamente la casa es la más crítica para evitar la ignición por brasas.*
Estos son algunos pasos sencillos para crear cinco pies de espacio defendible alrededor de su casa:
1 Retire arbustos, árboles y plantas que se encuentren a cinco pies de su casa
2 Limpie las agujas de pino y escombros de sus canaletas y su techo
3 Mueva las parrillas de BBQ, los muebles de patio y cualquier cosa combustible de los costados de su casa
