Washington — Voters in California's 20th district are going to the polls Tuesday to fill the vacancy left by former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, as House Republicans eagerly await an additional vote in the chamber after his departure late last year.
Among the group of candidates vying to fill the vacancy left by McCarthy are State Assembly member Vince Fong, who has the former speaker's endorsement and the backing of former President Donald Trump, and Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux.
The solidly conservative district is all but certain to deliver the House another Republican. But how quickly that happens remains to be seen.
