California Republicans lost another seat on Tuesday evening, as Democrat Josh Harder overtook incumbent Republican Jeff Denham in the 10th congressional district as ballots continued to be counted across the state.
Democrats appeared to take three out of the seven vulnerable U.S. House seats they had targeted in California in the 2018 midterm elections, as their party took the U.S. House overall, though Republicans held on in four of the districts.
Democrat Josh Harder held a final campaign event on Monday featuring Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom — but it was held behind closed doors in his campaign office, rather than in a public venue.
The San Francisco Bay Area kicked in another $500,000 to Democrat challenger Josh Harder’s campaign in October in an all-out effort to flip California’s 10th congressional district House in the Central Valley, held by Republican incumbent Jeff Denham.
Rep. Jeff Denham (R-CA) is touting his success in fighting for water in the Central Valley, releasing a letter Friday from the Trump administration to the State of California criticising the new Bay-Delta plan.
Rep. Jeff Denham (R-CA) is accusing Democrat challenger Josh Harder of inflating his resume as a college “professor” when his teaching experience at a local community college is actually very thin.
“You have to be a part of this community if you want to represent it in Congress,” incumbent Republican Jeff Denham said of Democrat Josh Harder.
Democrat Josh Harder, who is running against incumbent Republican Jeff Denham in California’s 10th congressional district, registered to vote in San Francisco in 2016, but did not vote twice.
Republican incumbent Rep. Jeff Denham’s campaign slammed his Democratic challenger in California’s 10th congressional district, Josh Harder, on Tuesday for drawing only 1% of his contributions from within the district.
Though Democrat Josh Harder says he opposes the Bay-Delta Plan, his absence from a major rally has continued to provide ammunition for Jeff Denham’s campaign.
The “smart money” is betting on a net GOP loss of only one or two seats. That is bad news for Democrats, who need to do better.
