ICYMI: John Duarte For Congress Receives National Attention as More Outlets Move Race to “Toss Up!”
Duarte’s Momentum Continues to Build
(Merced, CA)— Farmer and Businessman John Duarte continues to build campaign momentum after an impressive June Primary victory. This past week, Politico featured Duarte in an article highlighting standout congressional campaigns across the country.
When asked about why his campaign was resonating with voters, Duarte responded, “The cost of living here in the Valley is out-of-control. The same-old career politicians who created these problems aren’t doing anything to fix them. Folks here are tired of empty promises from career politicians who put political insiders and corporate donors ahead of our Valley families and local businesses. They’re ready to elect a Representative who will actually stand up for hardworking Valley families and fight back. ”
In other news this week, another national nonpartisan political forecasting organization, Sabato’s Crystal Ball, moved CA-13 from “Lean Democrat” to “Toss Up.” Sabato’s Crystal Ball joins other national political forecast analysis sites such as The Cook Political Report and FiveThirtyEight in moving the race to “Toss Up.”
Farmer and Businessman John Duarte released a statement on the recent momentum and attention his campaign has been receiving. “While I appreciate the national interest and attention our campaign is receiving, this election is about our Valley families that have been forgotten by career politicians in both parties.” Duarte continued, “No family should have to choose between filling up their tank or putting food on the table. When I am in Washington, I will fight the high cost of living and put our Valley families first.”
