First: Mike Garcia was elected to represent CA-25 in a special election.
Then: Christy Smith ran against him in 2020 and only lost by 333 votes.
Now: Mike Garcia is poised to lose the Republican stronghold in Simi Valley (home to Ronald Reagan) from CA-25 thanks to redistricting. Right now, the draft maps from the independent redistricting committee show the very voters who Mike relied on for his slight win are no longer a part of the district. Without them, he is poised to lose.
That is big news for CA-25 -- if these maps are finalized this district will look a lot bluer -- just as experts have been predicting. We know we have the momentum to win but we have to build the campaign to back it up, John.
