| Description | Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said he would urge that Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., be thrown out of the Republican Party if he continues backing a third-party candidate in the special election for California's 48th District.
"I would ask the state of Colorado to strip him of his party membership," Issa said in an interview.
Tancredo has endorsed and appeared in a cable television ad for American Independent Party candidate Jim Gilchrist, who is running in the Oct. 4 open primary to replace former Rep. Christopher Cox, R-Calif., who is now SEC chairman.
Issa said Tancredo, a vocal immigration critic, could have chosen to endorse any one of 10 Republicans in the race. |
