BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Newly elected 35th District Assemblywoman Dr. Jasmeet Bains held a ceremonial swearing-in at The Station in Northwest Bakersfield Friday morning. Bains was officially sworn into the seat in Sacramento in December. During Friday's event in front of family and friends, Kern County firefighters presented Dr. Bains with a helmet symbolic of their support for her. She addressed the crowd, speaking about her roots in Delano, her background as a doctor and her election in November where she received 60% of the vote as a first-time candidate against Kern County Fifth District Supervisor Leticia Perez.
