Bakersfield Voters Surprised by Fong's Last-Minute Congressional Bid

TL;DR Summary
Bakersfield voters react to the recent developments in the CA-20 Congressional race, with two potential frontrunners ruling out running and one of them, Vince Fong, deciding to jump into the race. While some voters are sad to see McCarthy leave Congress, they approve of Fong's campaign and appreciate his knowledge of local issues affecting Bakersfield residents. There is a possibility of candidates from outside Kern County making a run at the district, but experts believe that Fong's name recognition and track record of success give him an advantage.
