Nunes supporting town a few months ago. They did this when Nunes was blamed for being corrupt with Russian connections. All the people they spoke with no matter their age or gender (they were all white) said they didn't even want to talk with the "fake news". Janz is doing what Lamb did...he approached them in person on their local issues. He said that is the only way to sway people in this conservative district. Lamb won by a too thin margin so Janz and his supporters will have to pound the pavement and hit the phones up until election day. Janz is very realistic and has a good "feel" for the citizens and their concerns. We will see how it goes but it will take a lot of work...it will be worth it.
