LOS ANGELES (AP) — Another tough U.S. House race is shaping up in Southern California.

Orange County Supervisor Michelle Steel announced Thursday that she's challenging first-term Rep. Harley Rouda, whose victory in the coastal 48th District last year helped Democrats retake control of the House. [snip]

...In the neighboring 39th District, Republican Young Kim has announced her candidacy and is hoping to set up a rematch with Democrat Gil Cisneros, who defeated her in 2018.

With our side also doing ballot harvesting, Young Kim will win.

Were these two of the districts where the Democrats “harvested” the ballots?

Good to see local Republicans with enough fight in them to take the lead in hostile territory. Even if they lose at first, let’s hope they can stick it out for the long haul— as the Democrats do.
