The road to partisan control in Congress runs through Antelope Valley, a rare battleground district.
The high desert communities of Lancaster, Palmdale and Santa Clarita often fly under the radar, but they may be thrust into the national spotlight when residents cast their votes for California’s. It’s the only battleground race in L.A. County and it could play key role in determining which party controls the House of Representatives.
But while dollars and party demographics may lean in Whitesides favor, Garcia has strengths of his own.. His strategy relies on attracting independents and moderate Democrats’ votes by focusing on kitchen table issues and emphasizing his willingness to work across party lines. “Congressman Mike Garcia has proven time after time that he agrees that Donald Trump should be able to overturn elections, betray our allies, and wipe away our fundamental American rights to privacy and control over our own bodies,” Whitesides said.
“I’ve been very aggressive about cutting government spending where there’s fat, where there’s fraud, where there’s waste, to make sure that we’re doing everything we can to reverse the tide of this inflation problem,” Garcia said. In addition to criticizing his voting record, the Whitesides’ campaign is also slamming Garcia over allegations of insider stock trading. Earlier this week they launched an ad campaign attacking him for selling $50,000 in Boeing stock months before the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, of which Garcia is a member, released a damning report on the aerospace company.
