News

AINews Summary
Last updatedJul 15, 2026

Jessica Forgy is one of the candidates in California’s 14th congressional district special election, which is set for Aug. 18 to fill the remainder of the current term. The race is part of a larger, competitive election cycle, with recent reporting saying Republicans have lost ground in several key House districts ahead of the 2026 midterms. Broader voting-rights and redistricting rulings could also affect future district maps, including in Texas, but the summaries do not say Forgy is directly involved in those changes.
