Smyth is vacating the seat due to term limits. “In our meetings with Mr. Wilk, he has demonstrated a thorough and impressive grasp of issues concerning the Armenian-American community. We have no doubt he will be among the strongest voices for Armenian-American issues once he is in Sacramento and we look forward to a long and productive relationship with him,” said ANCA-WR spokesman William Bairamian.

Wilk stated, “The Armenian community is a growing force in the 38th Assembly District. This is endorsement is very personal to me. I know their history and issues as my wife Vanessa Safoyan Wilk is 100% Armenian. I have heard the horror stories of the Armenian Genocide from my in-laws and other family members and I will do whatever I can to bring awareness and justice to the Armenian people.”
