The idea that LA GOP can just order a candidate to run or stop running is one of the dumbest things on this board.
Nobody said that. But they haven’t backed a candidate or given any money to anyone. After this much time, that’s 1) an indictment of the candidates or 2) shows they don’t really want to unseat JBE all that badly.

If the LAGOP was really as powerful as some people like you on this board claim they are, they would have never allowed Bobby Jindal's stupid, pointless and reckless feud with David Vitter to morph into an opening where a democrat could win the Governor's mansion.
The people I’m talking about were not running things then. That feud shifted the power structure in the party.

The LA GOP is nowhere near as powerful as you think they are.
I’m not talking about who the party chair or anyone like that. I’m talking about the big money players.

The next election after this is 2023 btw, not 2024.
They will be sworn in, in 2024.

Because they can't back a candidate during the first round. That would be massively unfair to the candidates themselves whether or not they're on the receiving end of the money and endorsement.

Doesn't matter, the power they have right now is still the same as it was back then.

Those "big money players" couldn't care less about the LA GOP itself, they're putting money and support behind the actual candidates themselves. That's where the power is.

Lame CYA.

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of how the state party works. They work for candidates not the other way around.
