CA-37: Special Election Today

The special election in California's 37th Congressional District is being held today, Tuesday August 21, to fill the seat vacated by the sudden death in April of U.S. Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald. 45-year-old State Assemblymember Laura Richardson won a hotly contested primary election in June to become the Democratic nominee and thus the overwhelming favorite to be the next United States representative for the 37th Congressional District.



Mad Professah has been following this race for months and looks forward to seeing who will replace soon-to-be Congresswoman Laura Richardson in the State Assembly, as well as seeing whether she will agree to co-sponsor important federal legislation like H.R. 3326 (Early Treatment for HIV Act), H.R. 2221 (Uniting American Families Act), H.R. 2015 (Employment Non-Discrimination Act), H.R. 1592 (Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act) and H.R. 1246 (Military Readiness Act).
