Local State and Federal Race Update

Nothing has changed in the state races since our last update.

However, there has been news on the federal side. Local CPA Phil Liberatore of Whittier has entered the Republican primary for the 42nd Congressional district. Michael Williamson is officially seeking the Democratic nomination in the 42nd Congressional race. Williamson finished second in the 2008 primary and last in the 2009 Mission Viejo city council race.

Filing starts Monday, so we will have a lot more next week. Will Curt Hagman, Gloria Negrete McLeod or Norma Torres run uncontested? Will Ron Shepston seek a rematch with Williamson? Will Gary Miller draw more primary challengers? Will Lee McGroarty stay in the 42nd race or rally behind Phil Liberatore to try and defeat Miller? We will find out soon!

  1. Shepston needs to stay out and McGroarty needs to get out.
