In the race for California’s 15th Congressional District, U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell has emerged as the clear front-runner among delegates. Following closely behind is former State Controller Betty Yee, who has also garnered considerable support from delegates.

The California Democratic Party held its annual convention in San Francisco over the weekend, with a record-breaking number of delegates in attendance. As expected, the race for the 15th Congressional District seat was a hot topic of discussion and the candidate forum was a highly anticipated event.

Out of all the candidates vying for the seat, U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell and former State Controller Betty Yee stood out as the top contenders. Swalwell, who is currently serving his fourth term in Congress, has a strong track record of advocating for progressive policies and has established himself as a leader in the fight against gun violence.

His unwavering dedication to issues such as healthcare reform, climate change, and immigration has won him the support and admiration of party delegates. Swalwell’s impressive list of accomplishments and his ability to deliver results have solidified his position as the preferred candidate among delegates.

In a recent interview, Swalwell expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming support he received from delegates at the convention. He stated, “I am grateful for the trust and faith that delegates have placed in me. I am committed to fighting for the values that we hold dear as Democrats and I am confident that together, we can bring about real change for the people of California.”

Following Swalwell closely in delegate support is former State Controller Betty Yee. Yee, who was appointed to the position in 2015, has proven herself as a capable and dedicated public servant. She is known for her expertise in fiscal management and has been a strong advocate for responsible budgeting and taxation policies.

Yee’s message of promoting economic prosperity for all Californians has resonated with delegates, earning her their support and confidence. In her remarks at the convention, Yee emphasized the importance of standing together as a united front to tackle the pressing issues facing the state.

“I am honored to have the support of delegates who share my vision of building a brighter future for California. I believe in the power of collaboration and I am committed to working with my fellow Democrats to move our state forward,” said Yee.

Despite the tight competition between Swalwell and Yee, both candidates have shown a united front and have declared their commitment to a clean and fair campaign. They have both emphasized the need for Democrats to join forces and focus on defeating the Republican incumbent in the general election.

The high level of enthusiasm and energy at the convention was proof of the democratic spirit that runs deep in the state of California. Delegates were passionate and engaged, eager to support candidates who share their values and will work tirelessly to bring positive change to their communities.

The strong showing of support for Swalwell and Yee is a clear indication of the growing enthusiasm within the Democratic Party for fresh and progressive leadership. As the race for the 15th Congressional District heats up, one thing is for certain – both Swalwell and Yee have what it takes to lead California into a brighter future.
