Representative Josh Harder will run for reelection in California’s newly-drawn 13th congressional district in 2022, which includes the west side of his hometown Turlock. Harder faced a difficult choice as redrawn maps approved this week dismantled his district, splitting communities like Turlock and Modesto, which he currently represents as a whole, almost cleanly in half. “It is the honor of a lifetime to serve my hometown in Congress. Today, with Pam and our first child on the way, I’m proud to share that I will run for reelection in California’s new 13th congressional district which includes my hometown of Turlock,” Harder said. “I’m excited to continue serving so many of the communities in my current district.
