The 50th Congressional District representing much of San Diego's East County and north into Temecula is up for grabs after its former Congressman Duncan D. Hunter pleaded guilty to campaign fraud.
Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar and Republican Darrell Issa hope to take the seat this November. Issa is a former congressman who represented North San Diego County's Dist. 49 and Najjar is a businessman and former Labor Department who aims to flip the long-time red district.
To prove their political prowess, the candidates faced off in a debate that aired on NBC 7. If you missed it you can watch it here:
