Republicans won control of the House in 2022 with the help of four heavily contested Golden State congressional seats.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy, whose district is centered in Bakersfield, made winning seats in his native state a high priority, recruiting candidates and supplying them with whatever money they needed.
The current count is 221 Republicans and 212 Democrats with two vacancies, so it wouldn’t take much for the latter to regain the majority they had held for many years prior to 2022. Within hours of Johnson’s election, Democratic campaign operatives were beating the media drums about Johnson’s anti-abortion and anti-gay rights positions and his support for Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2000 presidential election results.
The seven GOP congressional members Gottlieb cited are generally regarded as Democratic targets next year, but they vary in degree of vulnerability, with the four in districts carried by President Joe Biden considered the most imperiled.
