We end our series of interviews with the top contenders in the race to be California’s next governor. Republican State Assemblyman Travis Allen represents parts of Orange County, including Huntington Beach. A new LA Times poll puts him at 5th place in the race. We talk housing, the Republican effort to repeal the gas tax, and immigration. Allen claims that undocumented immigrants commit crimes at a much higher rate than US citizens.
