Josh Harder Knows How to Survive

Rep. Josh Harder (D-CA) “pulled off an upset to defeat a Republican in the 2018 election, but in 2020 he did something more impressive: He won again,” the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

“Harder was one of only a handful of swing-seat Democrats to survive last year’s elections, which ended with a sharply reduced House majority for the party.”

“Harder, 34, and those who know him credit his success to focusing on issues that matter to his district and efforts at bipartisanship. Democrats hope he can serve as a model for their candidates in next year’s midterms, which historically are rough for the president’s party.”
