NEW: Indicted US Rep. Duncan Hunter fails to win the endorsement of his local Republican Party.
The federal charges against the 42-year-old lawmaker came up only glancingly throughout the hour-long forum, but they are an overarching issue in a contest in which the Republican candidates largely agree on immigration, opposition to abortion, defense of the Second Amendment and support for President Donald Trump.
Hunter has pleaded not guilty and has called the charges a politically motivated attempt to drive him from office. "I'm not going to move somewhere and fight for the easy seat," Hunter said in what appeared to be another dig at his challengers. Issa, who was known as one of President Barack Obama's chief antagonists in Congress, appeared to hint at Hunter's legal problems indirectly, at one point asking,"Do you have someone who arrives able to lead on day one?"
