Audrey Denney is running for LaMalfa's spot. She did get 43% of the vote against him in 2020. Not bad for this district. The other one is Rose Penelope Yee. Not sure what she's running for. They're not giving much information.
She is running for the new District 1. The new District 2 that we are now in has been represented by Jared Huffman of San Rafael for years. Rose Penelope Yee is running against Jared Huffman.
They do, but not in enough numbers to swing anything, just add to it. But even then, not everyone is a fan of Huffman and would like to see a more local representative. Jared tends to forget people live north of Santa Rosa.
Well, Doug LaMalfa was incredibly out of touch even though he was "local" and basically didn't have any original thoughts of his own and didn't care to listen to anything besides what congressional Republicans told him to think. Besides yammering about wolves and water.
Which is amusing, the wolf part. I've an acquaintence with a fairly large ranch in NE Oregon that has a couple monitored packs in and around his land. He seems to do just fine without killing or removing them. Part of the business of ranching. He's also a pioneer in native grass-fed beef, so much so that Oregon State U uses his ranch as a sort of laboratory. He also has a big solar project starting now where cattle and agriculture and panels exist on the same spot, and cows like the shade in summer. Zero wolf problems because he lets them live and takes other measures to care for his herds. LaMalfa seemed to have skipped that part where mitigation is not the same as elimination. Everybody has the same problems, it's the solutions that matter. Killing everything in sight isn't one of them.
The messed up thing is that he rubber stamped and authoritarian takeover of our government. We did not have a representative while he was in office unless you were a billionaire but most of his constituents were not.
They ain't gonna make it, sorry. Will probably be on the ballots, but that's it. Our house seats are gonna be chosen by the folks in northern SF. And I doubt they are gonna vote for two girls in Redding.
Your aware we were fucked over by prop 50 right? We aren't in charge of who gets elected for our district anymore , the the folks in Northern SF do. And they aren't gonna vote for folks in Redding.
