A gay Latino veteran who fought the military s homophobic Don t Ask, Don t Tell policy and has ties to San Francisco is seeking to be elected to a Southern California congressional seat. Should he win, Joseph C. Rocha would be the second out Democratic person of color elected to Congress from the state. Rocha, 35, who lives in Escondido with his dog Daytwa, officially launched his campaign July 7 for the Golden State s 50th Congressional District. He is aiming to oust the Republican incumbent, Congressman Darrell Issa, from his suburban seat northeast of San Diego.
