CA-22: Socialist Randy vs. Establishment Darlin’ Bains
As 2026 kicks off, Democrats are locked in a full-blown knife fight that perfectly exposes the party’s identity crisis: a socialist takeover versus the establishment machine, with no concern for Valley families caught in the middle.
On one side is Socialist Randy Villegas, a Bernie Sanders-backed progressive who is now importing the same radical architects who turned New York City into a national cautionary tale.
On the other is Establishment Darlin’ Jasmeet Bains, the preferred candidate of corrupt Sacramento insiders and EMILYs List, running cover for the same failed Democrat policies.

“In the fight for the soul of the Democrat Party, Democrats are stuck choosing between Establishment Darlin’ Jasmeet Bains, an out of touch puppet of the corrupt Sacramento insiders, and Socialist Randy Villegas, a radical more focused on ideological power plays than putting the Central Valley first. Either way, California families would lose out.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
