Sudden Infighting in California

 Now that Prop 50 is taking hold with newly redrawn districts, there is new infighting over less Republican seats.

I am a bit in shock.   First Kevin Kiley shreds his Republican colors to become an Independent and then decides to jump districts from his CD03 to challenge Tom McClintock in neighboring CD05 – I have supported Tom for years.   I will NOT support Kiley in this fight.

CD05 (Gold Country foothills) - Tom McClintock - R - Long term reliable conservative. Being challenged by CD03 Kevin Kiley (recently declared as an Independent, and no longer Republican).

Likewise, the fight is erupting in CD40.  Being eased out of a seat in CD41 by Prop 50, Ken Calvert is looking to take over Kim’s neighboring CD40 district.

CD40 (Orange County area)

  1. Young Kim - R, Incumbent

  2. Ken Calvert - R (challenging from CD41)

The TVR website page “Primary: Rest of State” has been updated to reflect these unhappy battles among former colleagues.
