DescriptionThe race to replace Democratic Rep. Janice Hahn morphed from a likely snoozer into a clash between an environmentalist Latina and a powerful member of the state’s legislative black caucus. It is fraught with accusations of ethical misdeeds and carpetbagging.

There are 10 candidates on Tuesday’s ballot, but it looks like the contest will come down to two very different Democrats: state Sen. Isadore Hall III (D-Compton) and Nanette Barragán, an attorney and former member of the Hermosa Beach City Council. And it will continue past the primary should they, as expected, be the top-two finishers who will face each other in the general election. The 44th Congressional District is strongly Democratic.
