National Republican Congressional Committee: |
A new poll spells big trouble for career politician Christy Smith in California’s 25th Congressional District. The poll shows former fighter pilot Mike Garcia leading Smith by four points, 43 percent to 39 percent.
The new numbers are an embarrassing failure for the DCCC and House Majority PAC. The organizations spent nearly $1 million working to prevent Mike Garcia from making the runoff.
