NRCC Statement on Derek Tran

If you are covering Derek Tran’s announcement in the 45^th Congressional district, please consider the following statement from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC):

“Ambulance chasing lawyer Derek Tran just crashed Democrats’ clown car primary in the 45^th district. With extreme liberal Derek Tran joining this crowded field of flawed candidates, get ready for Democrat infighting devolving into a risky high-speed race to the far-left.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen

Background

• Extreme liberal Derek Tran’s entry sets up a vicious battle with far-left Katie Porter’s endorsed candidate Kim Bernice Nguyen.
• This is yet another example of a “messy” Democrat primary “headache” harming Democrats’ chances in 2024.
