Cenk Uygur, founder and host of The Young Turks, enters race to fill California Rep. Katie Hill's seat.

The special election to fill California Rep. Katie Hill's vacant seat is shaping up, with Cenk Uygur, the founder and host of liberal media company The Young Turks, announcing his bid for the seat, joining George Papadopoulos, the former Trump campaign aide who was convicted in the Mueller probe, and former Rep. Steve Knight, the Republican incumbent Hill defeated in 2018.

Just before midnight Thursday night, Uygur tweeted that his campaign had already passed $100,000 in donations from 3,770 contributions.Hill joined Congress after the most recent election as part of the"Blue Wave," flipping California's 25th Congressional District and helping Democrats take control of the House, but she submitted her letter of resignation on Oct.

A primary election must be held first, and California's election law makes this a notable race to watch regardless of the candidates now running. This means that two Democrats or two Republicans could face off in a general election, and a crowded field on either side could cause a vote split that leads to a one party race come the general election. Additionally, if a candidate was able to secure a majority of the vote share in a primary, they would win the election outright.
