As part of KRCB's ongoing coverage for the June 2 primary election, we're bringing you interviews with the candidates on your local ballot. Below is KRCB Radio News Reporter Noah Abrams' interview with 2nd Congressional District candidate Nicolette Hahn Niman.

One candidate in the race for California's Congressional District 2 seat recently stopped in Redding in hopes of bridging the gap between the district's politically divided coastal and inland regions.

Nicolette Hahn Niman, an environmental attorney and a rancher from Bolinas, is mounting an independent challenge to Representative Jared Huffman, the incumbent Democrat seeking a seventh term in California’s Second Congressional District.

North Coast rancher and farming and food advocate Nicolette Hahn Niman, officially announced her campaign for California’s 2nd Congressional District against Incumbent Congressman Jared Huffman as an Independent Candidate.

The first congressional race following the voter-supported gerrymandering of District Two, represented by Jared Huffman since 2013, has brought on a crop of candidates to run against him.
