Speaker McCarthy’s decision to open an impeachment inquiry likely saved his job in the near term, it may very well cost him the speakership come 2024.
Both parties have made clear they are ready to invest heavily in the state to win swing races which could tip control of the House of Representatives either way. Speaker McCarthy, no stranger to California politics, put it plainly,, “Is my future as Speaker dependent on holding the five seats we picked up in California? Yeah. We have our entire majority because we won in California.”
Meanwhile, House Majority PAC, which is tied to Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, has committed to spending $35 million in California. In Southern California, they have specificallythe 27th, 40th, and 45th districts in Los Angeles and Orange Counties as targets to flip blue. Each of these districts voted for President Biden in 2020 while sending a Republican to the House in 2022.
Yet, in the fight for these important Southern California districts, House Republicans are proving to be their own worst enemy.
