(51,590 posts)CNN went to his district with him a month ago and most of the people only cared about the water supply and immigration. They have a lot of farms and need the water (tough shit...so does everyone in CA!) and immigration (only if they can get undocumented labor for $1.50 an hour and 12 hours a day that is). Every single person they approached with Janz and the CNN cameras people said, "Fake news" and refused to talk to them and no one knows anything at all about Russia.

(9,008 posts)Nunes should be beatable after that crap he has pulled in the House.

(58,785 posts)He's out ahead of several Democratic candidates, including Jose Sigala, Dr. Mallory Kremer, Ricardo Franco, Bobby Bliatout and Paul Vargas, with possibly more coming. This billboard was put up by Janz's group.
Janz grew up in Visalia and has a solid and varied background, including prosecuting criminals. That'd appeal to conservatives, of course, but also to some degree to most everyone in low income/inadequately policed areas. He has a BA in economics, something in a perfect world all legislators would have.
Reportedly, there's high (60s) independent voter support for a generic Democratic candidate, including among Hispanic and young voters. But would they turn out?
A capital-P Progressive group opposes Janz because of his work as a prosecutor.
But this conservative district has been electing Nunes since 2002, and right now apparently our national party is standing back and letting locals work on it.
