Longtime Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Elk Grove, has two challengers in the March 5 primary for California’s 7th Congressional District.
The 5th runs from Placerville down into Fresno County, covering Yosemite National Park and parts of Kings Canyon National Park. It grabs Amador, Calaveras, Tuolumne and Mariposa counties as well as western El Dorado County and eastern Stanislaus, Madera and Fresno counties.
The top two vote-getters will advance from the March 5 primary to the Nov. 5 general election.

Q. What steps will you urge to help reduce federal deficits?
Stop admitting millions of impoverished illegal migrants; restore the ban on earmarks; rescind the hundreds of billions of dollars of green energy subsidies; stop funding unauthorized programs and require able bodied welfare recipients to work.
To avoid the impending bankruptcy of Social Security and Medicare, we need to shift new workers to sustainable investment and premium support programs.
Long term, we need to amend the Constitution to require a balanced budget and to give the president line-item veto authority. I have introduced or advocated for these reforms in Congress and have been consistently rated one of the best votes in Congress by both the National Taxpayers Union and Citizens Against Government Waste.

Impeachment against a ‘rat is a waste of time.
The Supreme Court justices should each get to appoint a juror instead of having the far more partisan senators decide.
He is a liar.
If the Mayorkas released an invader knowing the invader had a history of violence and the invader committed a serious crime, aggrieved parties should be able to sue Mayorkas.
If a president lacks immunity, so should all the underlings of a president.
Age limit for politicians should be 60. After that they no longer care about their future and can be bought.
“”What we really needed is a guy who would vote to support Mayorkas deliberate actions to destroy America.””
Amazing foresight you had in those days!!!
Two opponents is assurance he will be renominated. One may even be a ringer.
Good example of the scum in the House.
They are needed.
Just trying to figure out why someone as conservative as him could become a RINO so quickly. If Jeffrey Epstein were still alive, he might have the answer.
“Amazing foresight you had in those days!!!”
LOL. Read your post.
Yes, we have enough votes to impeach, barely. Last cycle’s “red wave” failed, but its anti-impeachment Rino hunt bagged nearly all. Buck was a known exception. That’s nearly all for the House. Senate still swarming with RINOs. Repeat the vote with Scalise, House mission accomplished. Then use the inevitable Senate acquittal to drive primary and general election races this cycle. Need to pick up enough seats of those who are up, to intimidate those who are not up, so that Trump can’t be filibustered out of his next term.
Mike Gallagher is a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!! HUGE!!
I hate to say this, but I remember following McClintock some time ago...and what I saw was a person who was absolutely UNPRIDICTABILE...that is...you NEVER knew WHAT he was thinking.
THAT to me says...DO NOT TRUST HIM...because he changes with the wind.
Find someone else to support...this guy is a DUD.
and the invader committed a serious crime, aggrieved parties should be able to sue Mayorkas.

Yep, they just got the mom for her kid shooting up the school.
There was something he was whining about I heard on the radio.
Guess it was something else.
I heard something on the radio. Must have been something else.
I was one of them. Back in the 1990's he was a solid conservative.
