Darrell Issa's uncomfortable endorsement by the American Independent Party
Darrell Issa is the Republican Party’s candidate in the 50th Congressional District.
He’s also the choice of the American Independent Party, which has endorsed the former congressman against Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar.
Whether that backing has any strategic value in determining the outcome or is little more than something of an oddity, is unclear.
The AIP is the largest minor party in California and has a notable history of presidential candidates, from making Republican Donald Trump a two-party nominee in 2016 to backing segregationist Alabama Gov. George Wallace in 1968.
