Duncan Hunter
50th District — Inland San Diego County
Hunter’s solidly Republican district is changing, but not as fast as Issa’s neighboring district. His biggest challenge by far is that he’s facing potential legal and ethics troubles that will be exploited by his opponent. His seat got a second look as a potential pickup only after it was revealed that the FBI was investigating allegations that he had misused campaign funds. The Democrat who earned the second-highest number of votes in the primary, Ammar Campa-Najjar, is a liberal. That means the odds are this seat stays in Republican hands.
