Yes, I know it is early but it is never too early to start talking about 2012 political races. Sen. Bob Huff should have no problem winning re-election, if he chooses to run again.
2008 Democratic nominee Joseph Lyons terminated his campaign on June 30, 2009, so we suspect he will not make another run.
Sen. Huff's name has been mentioned as a possible Congressional candidate if a Democratic seat becomes competitive because of reapportionment in the 2012 elections. Several Democratic seats could move east making them more Republican, and possibly causing Huff to move to a neighboring district that he currently represents in the state Senate. Also, Diamond Bar, his hometown, could be placed in a Democratic district.
His name is also mentioned as a possible replacement for Rep. Gary Miller or Rep. David Dreier if one retires. No one knows how the Congressional seats will look after reapportionment for the 2012 elections and either seat could represent Diamond Bar. Both may not be retiring anytime soon, but one never knows.
