Our National key swing independent voter group led by women voters is relieved to see how moderates are not buying Tea Party candidate Carl DeMaio's extreme message.  Just recently, Carl promised to shut down the government if he is elected. 

Government shutdowns do not work.  It is a tax paying wasted effort that does nothing but obstruct forward movement.  Independent voters are tired of gridlock!  We want bipartisanship behavior in our government -- not partisanship and more gridlock.  Supporting DeMaio is the same as supporting the same old fighting rhetoric and gridlock in Washington D.C.  We support Scott Peters for Congress! 

Just in from Roll Call: 

Freshman Rep. Scott Peters, D-Calif., holds a slight lead over his GOP challenger, former San Diego City Councilmember Carl DeMaio, more than three months from Election Day, in a new poll conducted for House Majority PAC and provided first to CQ Roll Call.

 

Peters leads DeMaio, 48 percent to 43 percent — slightly outside the survey’s 4.9 point margin of error. The poll was conducted by GBA Strategies and surveyed 400 likely voters via live telephone between July 20-22.

This race in California’s 52nd District, located in and around San Diego, is a top Republican target in November. The National Republican Congressional Committee has touted DeMaio as a top recruit in the district that President Barack Obama won with 52 percent last cycle.
