In the race to replace former Rep. Kevin McCarthy in Congress, San Joaquin Valley voters on Tuesday chose Republican Assemblymember Vince Fong, a state lawmaker who was endorsed by Donald Trump. The Associated Press called California's 20th Congressional District race for Fong at 8:17 p.m. Fong bested fellow Republican Mike Boudreaux, the Tulare County sheriff. McCarthy resigned from Congress at the end of 2023 after being voted out as House speaker.
Boudreaux said in a prepared statement that he called to congratulate Fong Tuesday night. He added that he was 'absolutely humbled by the outpouring of support from family, friends, and neighbors across Fresno, Tulare, Kings, and Kern counties who stepped up to volunteer their time and energy to our campaign and donated generously to spread our message for a better Valley.
