The May 12 special election will be held entirely through vote-by-mail due to to the coronavirus pandemic. Democrat Christy Smith and Republican Mike Garcia are in a run-off for the post and will meet again in a November runoff for the right to fill the seat for the next two years.
Katie Hill’s HER Time PAC will spend approximately $200,000 in the final two weeks of the special election to remind voters to send in their vote-by-mail ballots before election day on May 12.
“We’ve seen that when we take our vote for granted, we put ourselves and our communities in danger,” Hill said in the new T.V. and digital ad [view it below]. “That’s why HER Time is launching this voter education campaign — with a special election coming up on May 12 in CA-25, we need everyone to return the ballot they got in the mail. This time, we have to vote like our lives depend on it.”
The HER Time campaign will include cable T.V., digital advertising and peer-to-peer texting. HER Time will be focused on communicating with voters who turned out in 2018 but did not have a consistent voting history prior, newly registered voters, and voters who don’t typically receive a vote-by-mail ballot.
“This special election is the first in California to be an all vote-by-mail election. That’s why HER Time is focused on ensuring this vote-by-mail effort is a success, as this could have significant implications as the rest of the country considers the possibility of doing the same for the election in November,” according to a news release from Katie Hill.
Hill won the 25th Congressional District seat for the first time in 2018 but resigned following the release of salacious photos online and allegations of an extramarital affair with a staff member.

Palmdale is a Crap hole

The liberal socialist democrats are the only ones that need to be educated. Why anyone would vote for someone that hates this country and hates the people that live in this country is beyond me.
William says
Did you vote for Trump, Dennis?
Trump hates the press which is in the First Amendment.
He hates Hillary Clinton and had chants of “Lock her up.” at his rallies.
He hates everything and everybody but you simply don’t notice that. That says a lot about you.

AND this coming from a ”DISGRACED EX-CONGRESSWOMAN” with the ”morals of an ALLEY CAT”!! We need ”common sense” politicians who have served their Country & Community ! My vote is for the man who has done that! Mail In Ballots are ripe for ”VOTER FRAUD”… CA. Democrats won their last election via ”Ballot Harvesting”, which is ILLEGAL in most states.. VOTE OR DROP OFF YOUR BALLOT at the ”VOTE CENTER” listed in the literature with your ballot, DON’T mail it in… We already know how many ballots wind up in the trunk of a car then ”somehow” they’re found & counted days after polls close.
William says
I thought you were talking about Trump MagnetLady. If not, why not?
Laughing says
Gee, people angry because a young person had sex.
I mean that was the whole “crime”.
Laughing says
Other than riding the co-tails of her military forbears.
I felt that was pretty lame.
Alby says
Because of sex? Hell no.
Lily says
No Laughing…When you are a politician running for office, stuff is going to come out (excuse the pun). She was having sex with a subordinate which she hid until it came out (excuse the pun), through photos that were spread around by her vengeful husband. She blamed everything on her husband as if she was an innocent pawn, not in control of any of her poor choices.
Laughing says
Sounds like a great many politicians honestly.
Lily says
You are right, Laughing.
Alby says
She is so pathetic to try to feed bull[removed] paranoia to idiot voters and act like its up to her to resolve it all. She’s a coward and a phony. I’d rather snort covid 19 up in my noses before I vote for anything that involves her politically. Pathetic phony coward.
William says
Your comments make it sound like you’re not very bright Alby.
But, that’s okay. You are probably surrounded by people like you so it seems normal.
It isn’t.
Grossed out says
Ew – that’s an endorsement only a skeeze would appreciate getting. Very telling!
John Jones says
Listen up Mrs. Hill. You just don’t get it do you? You’ve disgraced the voters in the 25th district. Find a large rock, lift it up and crawl under it and stay there. Go the hell away!
Covid-19 brought me back says
Go Away, Katie hill! I can’t believe I voted for you.
Alby says
What a clown, trying to use the so called pandemic to rake in votes and feed more paranoia to her sheeple. This covid stuff could have been brought up years ago and now its being used only for political gain. Pathetic. She should bury herself away in an esssential job such as making soap or toilet paper which could benefit her social atmosphere greatly.
