California

Eloise Reyes

 

A prime pickup opportunity in the Golden State

Redistricting and California’s first-ever, 2012 “jungle primary” – in which the top two vote-getters, regardless of party, advanced to the general – resulted in a number of narrow GOP wins and predictions that those seats could easily flip in 2014.

 

  • A Democratic-leaning seat prime for pickup
  • A self-made attorney and community activist
  • A vulnerable GOP incumbent on the wrong side of the issues.
