• Counting only "term limits era" service (since the start of the 1991-92 Session), Leslie has the most legislative service of any legislator, serving 9.5 years in the Senate and 6.5 years in the Assembly.
• Leslie lost the 1984 Assembly race by 1,379 votes.
• LEGISLATION: Author of AB 1757 (2002) which designated Bodie as the official state Gold Rush “Ghost Town.”
• NOTABLE NO VOTE (Expanded Local Pension Benefits): Leslie was one of 7 State Assemblymembers (and 14 legislators overall) who voted against AB 616 (2001) by Tom Calderon, which allowed California cities, counties and special districts to offer retirement benefit factors up to 3% at age 60. These higher benefit factors led to severe unfunded pension liabilities in a number of cities a decade later.
