The demographic picture looks somewhat different in northern Los Angeles County, where Republican Rep. Steve Knight hopes to hold off a challenge from Katie Hill, the 31-year-old former executive director of PATH, a nonprofit organization that provides services to homeless people.


Hill has a slight edge, 50% to 46%, within the poll’s margin of error.

The district, which covers Simi Valley, Santa Clarita and the Palmdale area, has fewer college-educated white voters than the wealthy Orange County suburbs. But it has a higher share of minority voters.

Latinos make up a bit more than 1 in 5 of the district’s likely voters and support Hill by nearly 2 to 1, the poll found. Hill also benefits from a significant gender gap, with women backing her 53% to 44% over Knight, while men split almost evenly. Just over half of the voters have a strongly negative view of Trump.

1. Katie Hill has assembled an excellent machine and has a suburb ground game

I'm maxed out at LA Times, could post a couple of paragraphs from the story?

2. I included it in the original post.

I live in Woodland Hills. When I drive out to Simi Valley I feel as if I'm in another state.

4. Thanks

GOTV is going to tip the scales in this race, and I believe her machine has been working hard on that.

There are, like, a half a dozen California congressional races I'm watching closely, and this is one of them.

3. Yesterday doing Phone Banking here in Vegas,

first observation was this. Each time I made contact with a Registered Female Voter,with the exception of one,all are going to vote early and all commented as to the probably negative of the Kavanah Appointment on Women's rights.

Another glaring comment,can not wait to vote. People are extremely nervous and tense. This is my fourth week on the phone,and the populace,especially Registered Dems,is getting more intense.
