Over the last couple of months, the Southern California News Group editorial board has been busy surveying and interviewing candidates across the four county region we cover (Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties). In addition to covering city and county races, our editorial board selectively interviewed candidates in two races for statewide office, one key congressional race and one race for state Assembly.
