It's a busy weekend for candidates making one final push before Tuesday's election.
Appearances are scheduled for the campaigns as they work to meet potential voters in the district.
With nine candidates running for California's vacant 50th Legislative District seat and no clear front-runner, what was once a safe Republican seat might be up for grabs. When former-Rep. Duncan Hunter came under fire for misusing campaign funds, several Republican contenders entered the race. When he officially resigned in early January, it became likely that one of those Republicans would face off with a former Democratic opponent of Hunter's.
The candidates for the seat are: Ammar Campa-Najjar, Democrat; Carl DeMaio, Republican; Darrell Issa, Republican; Brian Jones, Republican; Nathan Wilkins, Republican; Jose Cortes, Peace and Freedom Party of California; Helen Horvath, Independent; Lucinda Jahn, Independent; Henry Ota, Independent.
Marisa Calderon, Democrat, withdrew her candidacy Jan 31, but her name will still be on the ballot. The 50th district encompasses most of east San Diego County and some of Riverside county.
