    Meet the maverick California lawmakers who buck their party

    Randy Villegas, a progressive college professor, defeated Democratic Assemblymember Jasmeet Bains in a primary election, advancing to face Republican U.S. Rep. David Valadao in the general election. Bains, known for occasionally voting against her party, lost support due to her moderate stances compared to Villegas' progressive views. Republican Assemblymember Juan Alanis continues to vote according to his conscience despite risks of primary challenges from right-wing opponents.
