California's 37th congressional district encompasses most of Long Beach and Compton, as well as Carson, Signal Hill, and parts of other municipalities. This district is currently represented by Democrat Laura Richardson, who won a special election on August 21, 2007, soundly defeating a Republican challenger, as well as a Green and a Libertarian. Richardson gave up her seat in the California State Assembly to enter the United States Congress. Since attaining office, Richardson has been plagued by reports that her failure to pay her mortgages and car expenses has led to foreclosures and other financial troubles (http://www.presstelegram.com/news/ci_9508907).
