Caforio's in my neck of the woods, though the last redistricting shifted the district boundary a few blocks and moved me from that district (formerly Republican Buck McKeon's) and into the adjoining district of House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
Caforio's opponent, Steve Knight, was elected to McKeon's seat when he retired. Knight is popular here, especially among the many veterans here in the Antelope Valley. I see him all the time at local events and I've met him and had my photo taken with him and his wife. Right now we're seeing a lot of money being poured into TV ads for both Caforio and Knight. In blue California this is one of the very red areas.
