News: The Congressional Hispanic Caucus BOLD PAC is endorsing a slate of candidates in crowded House primaries for top Democratic flip opportunities.
The BOLD PAC is backing Randy Villegas in California’s 22nd District and Manny Rutinel in Colorado’s 8th District.
Villegas is running against state Assemblymember Jasmeet Bains for a chance to knock off Rep. David Valadao (R-Calif.). Democrats have long targeted this heavily Latino Central Valley seat, but Valadao has consistently won reelection while outrunning other Republicans.
Rutinel is aiming to knock off freshman Rep. Gabe Evans (R-Colo.). But there’s a massive primary in the 8th District, featuring the Colorado state treasurer, a former education union leader and a state representative. BOLD PAC is also endorsing Robin Peguero in Florida’s 27th District. Peguero, a prosecutor, is trying to defeat Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.).
