Nice article by Katherine but she was incomplete in her research. This is a three person race with Independence Party candidate David Dillon (Google him!) running a strong race. He's in the debates, put the first ad out, and NOT taking special interest money.
Katherine, I'm sure you can make it up to him by interviewing him.

Ashwin Madia is turning heads around the country with his well coordinated campaign and he's expected by many to be the first Democrat from the 3rd District in Minnestota to be elected in almost 50 years. Even more than his military experience, people are drawn to his charismatic personality and incredible ablitlity to connect with the voters in our district. Look for the Patriot, Ashwin Madia, to defeat the "more of the same" politician, Eric Paulsen.

looks like someone really got their feelings hurt...
let's face it folks, Lumpkin is as liberal as they come and that will never do in the 52nd district of CA.

You speak of various veterans that are running for congress including Duncan D. Hunter. You state that "he is expected to win his father's (and namesake's) seat." You mention how he served our great nation.
What you did not mention is that he is running against another veteran... Mike Lumpkin. Mike Lumpkin is a retired Navy Seal Commander. He spent over 20 years serving our nation. Mike Lumpkin is a National Security Expert. He has worked with congress as a liaison for the special forces.
What has Duncan Hunter really done in comparison to Mike Lumpkin? Nothing. All he has is his Dad's name. He has no experience to speak of. Perhaps you should look into Mike Lumpkin. You might think about using Mike Lumpkin Veteran next time instead of an unqualified, inexperienced, "veteran" of 5 years.
