McCarthy, Issa among Trump's Calif. delegates
By Jesse Byrnes
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) are among presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's delegates from the Golden State.
McCarthy and Issa are among dozens of delegates pledged to Trump in California in a list released Monday night by the California Secretary of State's office.
McCarthy's support follows comments by Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), who said he's not yet ready to endorse the businessman. Trump said he was "blindsided" by those comments.
PayPal founder Peter Thiel's name also appears on the list, representing California's 12th congressional district in San Francisco. Thiel backed Ron Paul in 2012.
Trump also has the backing of Harmeet Dhillon, vice chairwoman of the state GOP.
Trump's last rivals, Ted Cruz and John Kasich, dropped out of the GOP race last week, clearing his path toward the 1,237 delegates needed to lock up the Republican nomination.
