A potential opportunity for us. When Harman retired previously, Republican Steve Kuykendall won the seat (but lost it when Harman returned 2 years later). The former RNC Chairman Steele couldn’t be bothered with important special elections (except for funding the Socialist phony in NY), so this will be a test for the new Chairman to see if he understands how vital it is to make gains in Congress and vigorously contest these seats.
That district in the South Bay has deteriorated politically since then. We used to hold the occasional Assembly seat down there, but haven't been able to come close in any race for some time. I'd be really surprised (but won't rule it out) if we had a shot. I'd say Kuykendall himself would have the best shot if he's willing to have ago at it again. I'll send him an email and let y'all know what he says.
Kuykendall lost d/t gerrymandering. He was my rep at one time...now its Maxine Waters and probably always will be, because they drew the line from Inglewood to include most of Westchester and Playa del Rey.
Who wins this seat will be decided by the redistricting commission.
I lived in Hermosa as a kid. I do not know how the district was drawn back then, but “B-1 Bob” Dornan was our Congressman. Different times.
you are getting smarter all the time. I know cuz your thinking like me more and more.
Spring thaw is near, and the Palin-project in NH is upon us. A 7-month window of opportunity to cover the state before SNOW season starts again.
Priebus doesn’t strike me as a guy to miss an opportunity.
Interesting point, but when Steve Kuykendall won it, the district lines were different.
