CA-53: Sara Jacobs Announces Run for Congress
San Diego non-profit leader Sara Jacobs announced via Facebook Saturday her candidacy for California's 53rd Congressional District, a seat soon to be vacated by Rep. Susan Davis.
Jacobs said in her announcement this is an "all-hands-on-deck time" that calls for a new generation of leadership.
In 2016 Jacons ran in a crowded field of democrats in the 49th District and saw Rep. Mike Levin advance to the runoff and beat Diane Harkey.
This time around, Jacobs will run against policy adviser Joaquin Vasquez and Navy veteran Jose Caballero, both democrats.
