Omarosa Johnson Sandoval III is an American lawyer, businessman, and politician. Sandoval currently serves as the 10th and current Governor of Dixie, as well as Representative for Dixie's 5th Congressional District. His policies and beliefs tend to align with a more Libertarian conservatism, and he has served on the National Committees of both the Federalist and Libertarian parties. He is the current Chairman of the Libertarian Party.
Early life and Education
Sandoval was born on July 4th, 1969 in Augusta, Georgia (now Dixie) to Omarosa Sandoval Jr., a delivery truck driver, and Krystal Johnson, a waitress at Waffle House and a worker within the sex industry. Although his parents never married or lived together in one house, Sandoval is said to have been very close with both throughout their lives. He also has an elder brother, Josea, who was from his father's earlier marriage.
Sandoval attended Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, where he earned a BS in Economics. He went on to attend Vanderbilt University Law School on a full scholarship, graduating Summa Cum Laude.
Business Career
Sandoval became a corporate attorney, working his way up to Chief Legal Counsel for Dixie's largest energy company. He then went on to found Sandoval, Ecklestein, & Xavier Propane Incorporated (SEX Propane Inc.) with two associates from a previous job. SEX Propane is the largest and most profitable propane company within the United States, supplying propane to consumers nationwide.
Sandoval has an estimated net worth of $750 million, making him one of the wealthiest politicians of all time.
Political Career
Sandoval first began his political career in March of 2020, having been nominated to the position of Secretary of Internal Affairs for the state of Dixie under Governor Cabin. It wasn't until late March that the State Assembly had an opening, for DX-1, in which he won in a landslide victory. Sandoval went on to serve as the Speaker of the Assembly until his assumption to the Governorship. During his time within the Assembly, he sponsored multiple bills which focused on green energy investment, clean air and water, and voter and electoral reform. Sandoval was the only Federalist member of the Dixie Assembly to vote against the implementation of a controversial abortion ban amendment.
In the May Federal elections Sandoval won election to Dixie's 5th Congressional District, which is comprised of the regions of Florida, Georgia, and Puerto Rico. In July he won re-election to the seat unopposed. Within the House, he has generally caucused with and voted alongside other right-wing Representatives, and is a founder of the House Liberty Caucus.
In late May, Sandoval announced his intention to run for Governor of Dixie as a Libertarian. He beat Senator Trash in the election by a ten point margin, with Order as his running mate. His platform for Governor consisted of promises to pay off the state debt, lower taxes, legalize recreational substances, expand statewide infrastructure and internet access, and grow the green energy sector. Shortly before the July Presidential Election, Sandoval vetoed the PACE Act, a bill which drew controversy due to changing Dixie's electoral allocation so close to an election. He had previously co-sponsored the EAR Act, which established a "winner-take-all" approach, during his time in the Assembly.
Sandoval, and other financial officers, discovered errors within the state's balance sheets in early July, noticing that Dixie's liabilities were overstated in excess of $215 billion. He quickly introduced an Executive Order which established a new economics affairs department within the state, and pledged to pay off the remaining debt "before [he] leaves the Governor's mansion."
Personal life
Sandoval is married to Sandra Sandoval, an actress and Playboy Bunny. Together they have three children: Omarosa IV, Sherman, and Madonna.
Sandoval owns a home outside Nashville which he purchased from Alan Jackson in 2014 for $12.8 million.
