Progressive challenger targets one of California's reddest districts

Original: Can a Sanders-style progressive flip one of California's reddest seats?

A Sanders-style progressive is making a bid to win one of California's most reliably Republican congressional seats, prompting debate over whether left-wing economics can resonate in deep-red territory. CalMatters reports on the long-shot campaign and what it would signal for the progressive movement if it succeeded. Observers see the race as a test of whether economic populism can cross party lines in California's conservative strongholds.

Why now: A high-profile attempt by a progressive to flip a deep-red California seat is being closely watched as a test of progressive appeal beyond Democratic strongholds.
