SANTA MONICA – Keith Cascio, a Republican candidate for the assembly seat in California’s 55th district, said he feels hopeful about his candidacy. The results in the race have not yet been projected.

“Well, I’ve been running for office for three years, and I ran in 2022. I ran in 2024. Regardless of the outcome this week, I will run for 2026. It’s been a life-transforming experience for me,” he said.
