George is running for California’s 27th Congressional District which is currently represented by Republican Mike Garcia. It was one of 18 districts that voted for President Biden in the 2020 election while being won or held by a Republican in 2022 and the only Republican-held congressional district in LA County. Republicans only carried this seat in 2020 by 333 votes making this seat a top target for Democrats in their effort to retake the House next November.
