Since I did a state update earlier I thought a Federal update would be appropriate.
So far there appears to be at least three candidates in the race for the 42nd Congressional race.
Republican Primary
Congressman Gary Miller and Lee McGroarty have both filed with the FEC to seek the Republican nomination.
Democratic Primary
2008 Democratic primary second place finisher Michael Williamson appears to be the only candidate so far to enter the race for the Democratic nomination.
2008 Democratic primary third place finisher Ron Shepston may seek a rematch. His campaign renewed the web site's domain for one year this past April, but there have been no updates to the site since June 2008. One deterrent may be that Shepston still has $45,544 in debt from his 2008 race.
2008 Democratic nominee Ed Chau, who was recently reelected to the Montebello USD school board, terminated his committee with the FEC in October, so he will not be running again.
Candidate filing begins with signatures-in-lieu of filing fees forms on January 1. Although County Registrar of Voters offices will not be open until January 4. The deadline to file nomination papers is March 12.

Shepston should sit it out. He spent tons of his own money calling himself the front runner and placed third.
