It’s a GOP Showdown for McCarthy’s House Seat

FRESNO, CA (KMJ) Two Republicans will square off in the November general election for the seat held by former Rep. Kevin McCarthy representing California’s 20th Congressional district.

Assemblymember Vince Fong (R-Bakersfield) and Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux (R-Springville) will vie for the coveted spot in the US House of Representatives.

After the race was called on Wednesday, Boudreaux issued the following response:

“I got into this race because the Valley demanded leadership in Washington with real experience confronting our biggest issues: safety and our open border. Since entering the race in December, I’ve logged thousands of miles of travel across the four counties of this district to share my vision for a stronger, safer Valley for all. Despite a tight window of time and a tall hill to climb, our journey is just beginning. Onward.”
