It’s worth pointing out an unfortunate fact in California and its political radicalization: No Democrat incumbent has been defeated by a Republican for a Congressional seat since 1994 and no open Democrat seat has been won since 1998.
Going into the 1996 elections, both parties were tied (26 Dem/26 Rep) for the 52 seats. Today, the Republicans have declined down to a paltry 14 seats to the Dems 39 seats (out of 53).
Issa is the only one who was in trouble last year, cause he had an agressive opponent (a scumbag trying to parlay his Iraq War service) who benefited from Shillery coattails (7.5 point win)
Royce had an even bigger Shillery margin (8.6) but won easily as did Walters (Shilly +5.4) and Rohrabacher (Shilly plus only 1.7).
Issa faces a rematch with the scum who almost beat him. Got put him on the danger list. But in a non-POTUS year I’m less worried about him.
Rohrabacher is a target of the people hysterical about Russia but his district is the best of these.
Royce is in the most marginal district, if he had a strong opponent (his current ones seem run of the mill) there would be some risk.
I’m not concerned about Walters at all.
I believe a lot of the California congressional districts are RAT vs. RAT general election contests that the GOP can’t even try to compete in, ever since Ahnuld’s redistricting “reform” and the switch to a blanket primary system.
