Democratic Candidate in Liberal California District Courts GOP Voters
Original: He's a Democrat running for a liberal California district. He wants Republicans' help
A Democratic candidate running in a strongly liberal California legislative district is openly seeking support from Republican voters, according to CalMatters. The crossover appeal strategy is drawing attention because winning over GOP-leaning voters in a Democratic stronghold is unusual, and it raises questions about how the candidate can win a primary or general election in territory where his own party dominates the electorate.
Why now: A Democrat courting Republican voters in a deep-blue California district is an unusual, counterintuitive campaign strategy that is drawing interest.
