MODESTO, CA - OCTOBER 27: Patients are treated at a free dental clinic put on by volunteers with the California Dental Association Foundation on October 27, 2018 in Modesto, California. The two-day clinic is expected to provide free treatment to about 1,900 people who lack access to dental care. 13 percent of Californians lack public or private dental insurance. Health care is an important issue across California in the upcoming elections. Democratic congressional candidate Josh Harder (CA-10) is competing for the seat against Republican incumbent Rep. Jeff Denham. Democrats are targeting at least six congressional seats in California, currently held by Republicans, where Hillary Clinton won in the 2016 presidential election. These districts have become the centerpiece of their strategy to flip the House and represent nearly one-third of the 23 seats needed for the Democrats to take control of the chamber in the November 6 midterm elections.
