AOC, Newsom, Jeffries swing through California to help Democrats in tight races
Top Democratic and Republican leaders are sweeping through California as the Nov. 3 election approaches, evidence of the state's pivotal role in deciding which party will control the U.S. House of Representatives and the viability of President Trump's final two years in office. Top Democratic and Republican leaders are visiting California to aid Democrats in tight races ahead of the Nov. 3 election. The state is expected to determine which party will control the U.S. House of Representatives and the fate of President Trump's final two years in office. Democrats have rallied around their party's momentum, blaming President Trump and the Republican-led Congress for rising gas and food prices, cuts to healthcare funding, and the vilification of immigrants. New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared alongside Democrat Randy Villegas, challenging Republican incumbent David Valadao in a Latino voter-heavy district in California's agricultural heartland. Recent polls suggest Democrats may retake control of the House in the Nov., 3 election and may have a chance of taking power in the U.,S. Senate. The new congressional maps approved by California voters in 2025 are expected to give Democrats an edge.
