Unfortunately Popaditch has zero chance of beating Filner in that district. The district encompasses the border area from the Pacific out to the Arizona line. Most of the district is in the arm pit of California, the Imperial Valley. Almost all of the electorate are low income, mostly unemployed uneducated Mexican Americans. The district has been gerrymandered to insure that the incumbent democrat cannot lose. Filner crushed a well known former assemblyman and state senator named Juan Vargas in the democrat primary two years ago. No primary challenge this year.
I’ve seen the internal polling. Popaditch is right in the race.
