Santa Barbara Congressmember Salud Carbajal announced he is endorsing
Kamala Harris, one of California’s two senators, in her bid to secure the Democratic
Party’s presidential nomination.
“I know Kamala Harris; I have a working relationship with her,
I know her character, and I think she would go toe to toe with Donald Trump,” Carbajal
stated.
Carbajal dismissed concerns that Harris’s poll numbers are low
— 8 percent in California and only 6 percent among black voters in South Carolina
— saying, “All that can change overnight; there’s still a long way to go.”
