Darrell Issa moves toward challenging indicted Rep. Duncan Hunter
1 / 2Darrell Issa-CongressFILE - In this Dec. 7, 2018 file photo Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., speaks to reporters as he leaves a House Judiciary and Oversight Committee closed-door interview on Capitol Hill in Washington. Issa has taken a step toward challenging indicted U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter for a Southern California seat.
No one responded to messages left through the website or with Campaign Compliance Group, a company that is managing contributions made through the site. Hunter, 42, is also being challenged by Republican Carl DeMaio, a radio host and former San Diego city councilman with broad name recognition, and Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar, who came within 3.4 percentage points of unseating Hunter in November.
Story continuesThe Marine combat veteran, whose father represented the district in Congress for 28 years, has pleaded not guilty and framed the charges as political attack by prosecutors sympathetic to Democrat Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential bid. U.S. District Judge Thomas Whelan denied Hunter's bid to dismiss the case, which Hunter has appealed.
Hunter wants to provide his district"with the leadership and commitment to the conservative values and pro-Trump principles which they care about while, at the same time, ensuring that a Bernie Sanders-AOC Democratic socialist does not have the opportunity to advance a horrible, progressive agenda in Congress," said Harrison, referring to U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat.
