NEW 209 TIMES POLL: VIN KRUTTIVENTI LEADS GOP FIELD WITH BOLD PLAN FOR VALLEY PROSPERITY
A new 209 Times poll shows businessman Vin Kruttiventi leading the Republican primary for California’s 13th Congressional District with 32% support among likely GOP voters — more than double his nearest opponent.
Republican Primary Ballot Poll Results:
Vin Kruttiventi – 32%
Kevin Lincoln – 21.3%
Javier Lopez – 10.1%
Kyle Kirkland – 4.2%
Other/Undecided – 31.7%
The poll, conducted October 30–November 1, 2025, surveyed 302 likely Republican primary voters using IVR and text-to-web methods (±6% margin of error, 95% confidence).
Kruttiventi, a Lathrop resident and tech entrepreneur, is running on a prosperity-for-all platform that transcends party lines: Jobs for all, no matter your beliefs. The Valley should prosper. Water for every farm and family, no matter your politics. Massive investments in AI, AgTech, and Special Economic Zones — because 20% poverty and 18% unemployment are unacceptable. Kruttiventi will represent everyone in the Valley. Economic prosperity for all.
“I’m a first-generation American who built a business from nothing in this Valley,” said Kruttiventi. “I’ve seen 18% unemployment crush families. I’ve watched water wars starve our farms. I’ve buried friends who couldn’t get care because we have no medical college. This isn’t politics to me — it’s personal. That’s why I’m fighting for every single person in CA-13, no matter how you vote. Jobs. Water. Prosperity. Not for some. For all. And with this poll showing momentum, now is the time to stand together and win.”
With Prop 50 threatening to redraw district lines and dilute rural voices, Kruttiventi’s lead signals strong support for a fighter who puts people over partisanship.
