Just Pinned to Domestic and Global News: Dems push fresh faces... A California Democrat looking to flip a House seat in next years midterms believes he can appeal to both sides of the aisle and even pitch progressive ideas to President Trump. Ammar Campa-Najjar a 28-year-old communications staffer and former campaign worker of Mexican and Arab heritage says his background and resume put him in a position to succeed in the red district he hopes to represent. I talk about never being Arab enough in Gaza Hispanic enough in the Barrio or American enough in the post-9/11 world he told The Hill during a recent interview. I just dont come in with this preconceived notion of prejudice. It allows me to have an open mind and be tolerant see the world from their vantage point. Now Campa-Najjar is taking that perspective home to Californias 50th Congressional District where hell face an uphill battle against GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter. Campa-Najjar could eventually become part of a new generation in a party looking for fresh faces. But first he has to make it through a crowded primary election before taking on Hunter a Marine reservist who won his last race by nearly 30 percentage points. While oth
