California Democrats are building a wall of money to defend the congressional seats they took from Republicans in 2018, new Federal Election Commission financial reports show
***
In the Central Valley, Rep. Josh Harder, D-Turlock (Stanislaus County), took in $789,093 in the quarter that ended March 31, leaving him with $3.5 million in campaign cash. His Republican opponent, veterinarian Ted Howze, raised $71,147 in the first quarter, leaving him with $100,575 in the bank.
***
Brian Maryott, a San Juan Capistrano city councilman, is challenging Democratic Rep. Mike Levin in a district that bridges San Diego and Orange counties. But Levin has $1.4 million in the bank, compared with $77,033 for Maryott.
The numbers are even worse for Greg Raths, a Mission Viejo councilman. Democratic Rep. Katie Porter of Irvine already has raised $4.5 million for her re-election effort, far more than Raths’ $111,969.
It’s much closer in the Central Valley rematch between former GOP Rep. David Valadao and Democratic Rep. TJ Cox of Fresno, who took Valadao’s seat in 2018. The GOP challenger has $1.2 million in campaign cash, only about $1,700 more than Cox.
*** Rep. Harley Rouda, D-Laguna Beach, has $2.4 million for the fall campaign, while Republican Michelle Steel, an Orange County supervisor, has $1.1 million.
In another rematch of a 2018 race, Democratic Rep. Gil Cisneros has $1.1 million cash on hand, compared with $970,420 for Republican Young Kim of Fullerton.
*** for a Los Angeles-area seat left open by last year’s resignation of Democratic Rep. Katie Hill. While Assemblywoman Christy Smith, D-Santa Clarita (Los Angeles County) finished on top in the primary, GOP businessman Mike Garcia is leading the money race with $446,742 in the bank, to $357,256 for Smith.

This sucks, hope it changes but with ballet harvesting, outright cheating and now this not sure. I will vote them out but we will see
So, this time around Republicans know about ballot harvesting...
and all the cash in the world didn’t save Hillary’s @ss.
That will pay for millions of envelopes and stamps for the mail-in voting
for one thing...FIGHT....
California doesn’t seem to have money for much else though.
The ballots come with postage and return envelope.
With ballot harvesting of our own, there is no reason we can’t win back some of these seats.
Remember. California republicans were caught off guard in 2018. They did ZERO ballot harvesting.
Hell, they didn’t even know about the law.
Sometimes ya just can’t say what needs to be said, apart from not saying it.

Soros‘ never ending pools of money will eventually lead to a complete communist take over of this country. I had friends who died in Vietnam, according to LBJ, they were supposedly fighting the spread of Communism. Why isn’t George Soros and the Democrats getting the same treatment when they too are spreading Communism?
Christy Smith now begging for money....
Donate to Christy Smith for Congress
We have just a few days left to save this toss-up seat. Pitch in now, before it’s too late and Trump gets a win he so desperately wants.
Come Tuesday, Mike Garcia is taking the seat.
Thank You, Katie “Throuple” Hill
Three highly respected political insiders have now moved our race from Lean D to Toss-Up. Pitch in now to save this seat from a Republican takeover.
Paid for by CHRISTY SMITH FOR CONGRESS

Ya don’t say
If every FReeper would do what they can $ wise, we could take back the House.
TThe fact that most of the election will be conducted by mail, with get-out-the-vote efforts limited by social distancing, may also help Garcia. A ballot was mailed to each of the 25th District’s roughly 425,000 voters, with return postage paid. As of Saturday, 39% of GOP voters had mailed in their ballots compared with 25% of Democrats, according to Political Data Inc., an election analysis firm.
The contest is one of two special congressional elections being held Tuesday amid the strictures arising from the novel coronavirus, which has reduced competition to a bunkered campaign of texting, remote voter outreach, virtual appearances and — in California — millions of dollars in online and television advertising. The other open seat, in rural Wisconsin, is expected to easily remain in GOP hands.
Let’s hope that Trump has the time and wherewithal to campaign in CA. this summer. A good possibility the pubbies could gain some House seats.
All the money in the world don’t hide what SCUM ALL DEMONCRAPS ARE !!!
They lie They cheat. They ALL voted for the Ukraine hoax
They invent persona that seem conservative and pro America during elections. It’s all lies
Penlosi: “We have to win in certain particular areas; we’re not about a popular vote in the country. … We are district by district,” she said.
====================================================
Did she mention Democraps winning elections by voter fraud? (snix)
SOME OF THE DEMOCRAP VOTER FRAUD PRACTICED TODAY:
Chinese voter registration drive credited with flipping VA In Michigan, the secretary of state is where people go for drivers licenses. The SoS is registering everyone up to vote unless they specifically say they would not like to be signed up. This has led to voter registration cards being set up even if not signed by the potential voter. For the May ballot, the governor has mandated absentee ballots be mailed to every new registrant even if they have not asked to be registered or to receive an absentee ballot.
Soros OWNS electronic voting machines he leases to over 25 states.
People wandering the Malls are ‘registering’ voters; getting paid for each one. NO ID is asked for & people can register more than once.
There is NO system in place for death certificates to be forwarded to the Registrar of Voters to REMOVE a dead person from the voting rolls.
Voter fraud and election experts detailed findings from a cyber/forensic investigation reveal
compromised voting machines in 2018 (and quite probably, in the recent KY and LA governors' races).
(1) security protections in voting machines were disabled,
(2) penetration and manipulation of actual vote tabulations was and is possible, and
(3) evidence already exists that votes were surreptitiously, electronically manipulated to change election results.
Broward Fla 2018 was a dress rehearsal for massive 2020 voter fraud:
<><> Expect voter fraud in every single district with a Dem supervisor of elections.
<><> Dems will find sympathetic ballot printers, they’ll shred ones from the military.
<><> put people on notice NOW so more people are watching for it.
ELSEWHERE:
<><> buying homes in needed voting districts then busing in illegals as tenant/voters;
<><> illegal aliens added from voter registration DMV database -
<><> 175,000 purged voters put back on registration by Bevin opponent, now democrat governor Andy Beshear when he was KY AG.
<><> Repub Woman married to an Immigrant (not eligible to vote) moved out of Kentucky and unregistered as a precaution.
<><> yet she and her Immigrant husband both ”voted“ Democrat in Kentucky, though they lived elsewhere.
<><> dems have absentee ballots sent to PO Boxes, are discarded, then retrieved by vote fraudsters.
<><> modern-day slavery--herding native African into rubber dinghys--- to be sold in America as Democrat voters
======================================
Electronic fraud is rampant:
Dems calculate how many votes they are behind, how many votes still to be counted,
<><> they then trigger fraudulent software to fractionalize at random the votes being counted…... in just the right proportion to steal the election.
<><> One method of triggering is uploading a ballot that is marked completely illogically to the election management system to start the random shading routine.
<><>crooked software also survives check-sums and other elementary security checks.
<><> coded machines that gave every tenth vote to Hillary.
America is so fvked. We simply allowed it to happen. The good news is that I am getting used to it and we won’t stop them. /s
I’d argue the country’s been screwed since the aftermath of the civil war, but for sure we’re screwed and not one person will do anything about it
No doubt you are right. Things really went bad with FDR. That’s when people started wanting the government to be their daddy.
Mike garcia is going to win and the next best shot is the stellar candidate MICHELLE STEELE running against Harley Rouda.... we need this etwo back at a minimum!
