The California Report: Two Democrats Face Off in Silicon Valley – Ro Khanna vs. Mike Honda

8A-2013-12-18-KQEDscreenshot

This past August, I interviewed Ro Khanna, who is running for the 17th Congressional District in California. Recently, KQED / NPR did a nice overview on the dynamics of the Congressional race, profiling incumbent – Congressman Mike Honda and fellow Democrat, Ro Khanna.

As noted in the piece, this is a unique race where we have two Asian Americans (of different generations) and two Democrats running in an open primary where the majority of the voters are Asian American as well as predominately Democratic. Take a listen if you’d like to learn more about the race.
