California voters are set to choose a replacement for former Speaker Kevin McCarthy in a special election Tuesday that will help pad the House GOP's slim majority. The race in the Bakersfield-area 20th District between two Republicans, state Assemblyman Vince Fong and Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux, will determine who will serve the remainder of McCarty's term. He resigned in December two months after he was ousted as speaker.
Trump’s endorsement is also on the line in an open House race in Georgia's 3rd District, where his former White House political director is running. In the 2nd District, Chuck Hand, who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor related to his conduct during the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is among the GOP candidates looking to take on Democratic Rep. Sanford Bishop.
