I’m sure you’re aware that was the whole goal.

It elevated the other Dem/Marxist candidates like a turd floating on water.

They are all shlt stains… except for Steve Hilton of course.

Not sure what's to celebrate here. Prior to Swalwell dropping out there was a chance of having 2 Repubs win the top 2 spots. Looks like they got what they wanted, the 2nd Repub out the running. And steyer in 2nd.

They just need one Dem, and he'll win easily.

That was the point, but I think they underestimated how much collateral damage there would be for Congress.

Katie Porter is ready to fall. Fat, fug, and as a bonus meaner than a sack full of snakes. She should already be out but lefty women would vote for Squeaky Fromme if she had a (D) next to her name.

I don't know.. I think Hilton can find a way to get the upset - that is without cheating which will still be rampant but not as rampant as before

I don't think this was the whole goal. I think they knew the Dem field was crowded so they were going to thin it out, but something else happened. The way Democrats and Republicans moved in a mobilized on this thing was too precise. I don't know what he did or who he pissed off, but to go from where he was to absolutely nothing in a span of ablut 48 hours is downright scary. I don't like him and hope he gets everything he deserves, but there was something else there. Thinning the herd for that primary was just the icing on the cake.

Nobody. They have to have someone to come in second so they can have a democrat in the runoff.

Beat em to the buffet line. Nah but seriously she has a reputation of being quite abusive.

Sure, without cheating he can have a legit shot. But Repubs will have to show up heavily. Unfortunately any fed rule Trump tries to get put in won't have to be in play for the state election.

A huge number of Republican voters who could leave the state have left. Many are my neighbors, in just a single neighborhood.

Porter is going to get savaged by steyer with ads. He's bought the governor house

Easy steyer win in November.

Progressives in California deserve Porter, but the mayors and city councils are doing a good job of giving the progressive folks what they deserve.
