Newport Beach architect Laura Oatman has dropped out of the race for Congress in CD-48 according to the LA Times. Her name remains on the ballot though and she has thrown her support to Laguna Beach businessman Harley Rouda.
From the LA Times:
It’s too late for Oatman to remove her name from the ballot, but she said in a statement that she hopes “all local activists … can now unite into one mighty force” behind Rouda, a fellow Democrat. She called on the other Democrats left in the Orange County race to drop out, too.
