First step? Move to California’s 25th congressional district:
Cenk Uygur, MSNBC alum and co-founder of The Young Turks, is running to replace Katie Hill in Congress. One issue? He doesn’t live in the district https://t.co/Y9sGoKreUD

And last week, Uygur was called out for giving attendees at a meet-and-greet the wrong information about a vigil for victims of the Saugus High School shooting:
AT A CENK UYGUR MEET-AND-GREET
Santa Clarita resident: Where’s the vigil?
Uygur: Saugus High School.
Resident: No, it’s not there.
Uygur: I’m so sorry, I have it on my phone.#CA25

Yelling at potential voters is always a good look:
A Cenk Uygur staffer (or supporter who went with him) just yelled at some dissenters at this meet-and-greet and said “You guys are all blind.” #CA25

Oh, man. This race is going to be AMAZING:
