Given California’s crooked election system, no GOP candidate is going to be declared the victor in a Statewide or otherwise important election. I still vote every time, but feel like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football while Liberal Lucy is the holder.

Ex-dem here. Thank you. I’m one of the ones who woke up. Will vote for Hilton and Michael Gates.

Bonta and Newsom have been a great wrecking ball team for California. Why are they closing prisons? Is crime really down or is the reporting of crime down? Has the way we report crime changed or has Newsom and Bonta changed what crime really means?

Not only wiould the AG fight against a Governor they didn't support but so will the legislatures. California needs a total reset. We don't need more crime and less law enforcement and prisons. We need responsible people representing Californians. We need less spending, fraud and abuse of or tax dollars.

I don't want to move to another state. It is difficult when you've lived here for over 40 years to see your beautiful state pillaged by one politician after another. Crime is rampant, the state is dirty just like it's politicians and a labor union has totally taken over our government.

Dear Everyone. Get out the vote. Get your Republican voters to the polls. Kicking and complaining they will. But get them there. Do you have ride to polls volunteers? Do you have enough large SUVs to drive folks there and back? Yes. The get them organized NOW. Plan routes and schedules. One vote at a time. Just keep them coming. They are there. Even as in my neighborhood where most are registered Democrats, they want Newsom and the entire cabal out. If they need a ride, pick them up. And hammer Goleta because so very many young men are sitting it out. Get after them.

This is so important, James. Just look at Minnesota, and it's feckless governor (like Newsom) ... but powerful AG, in Keith Ellison.... a communist. This is how leftist governments roll. As Desi Arnaz would say, "California, yoiu've got some "splainin" to do". Vote for common sense. Please. Bonta, and his corrupt wife, need to go. John

Today's democrats are scary people! Hate in their speech, war against the nation in their actions! And ALOT of free citizen tax dollars in their pockets. Five star dining, multi-million dollar homes that do not match their incomes. Children put on the auction block. Children having their body's hacked. Children being taught Queer hour is more important than reading and math. Despicable democrats.

I will vote for Miachael Gates, but for there to be real change, the California Republican Party has to shed its image and become a party focused on California. Its priorities must be on actively promising and delivering solutions and improvements to the issues and improvements in California life that voters are pining for. California is larger in size, in population and GDP than many independent countries. For the California Republican party to win over the majority of voters, it must be objectively California focused. There is a way to bring that about, but it will take several years of change to accomplish it. The election of Michael Gates could be a step in that direction, but he must be given all the tools necessary to get elected by the existing Republican Party.

"For the California Republican party to win over the majority of voters, it must be objectively California focused."

You've forgotten one thing: just how STUPID the average voter truly is. Want proof?

Total CA registered voters: 23,155,447

Democrats: 10,397,692 — 44.90%

Republicans: 5,779,786 — 24.96%

So Democrats have a 20% percentage-point advantage over Republicans. Vote Dem? How dumb can ya get!?

Especially since Newsom took away republican voting districts and replaced them last year with democrat officials! Republicans are now only represented by 7 representatives. We lost 4 from Newsome's "illiegal" politics. And the democrats want people to believe Trump is the law breaker! Yes, voters are regurgitating what they hear.

Peanut's avatar

I agree. I do not identify with the Republican Party. Obvious both parties are very good bed fellows. There is no way our nation should put another Blue activist in office. Because we are a 2 party system, I too will vote Red all the way!

well, you did have a Soros judge Gascon that was weak on crime, I hope he's gone, California is a beautiful state, it's the democrats that make it shitty to live there, high taxes, over regulated, theft, illegals, it's time for Republicans to run the state!

Thanks James for sharing the importance of the position of Attorney General. "Prosecutorial discretion" is a powerful tool. During the Clinton-Obama-Biden administrations when someone their AG's agreed with would bring a law suit the AG's would sign a consent agreement that would be enforceable even if the underlying law suit was a loser. An example is the "hold and release" immigration ploy that Clinton's AG made enforceable through a consent agreement.

Amen! With men it is impossible; with God, ALL things are possible! Work like it all depends on us; Pray like it all depends on Jesus....because it does! Every Blessing Michael!

I will vote GOP for sure. Across the board. California's future depends on changing the party in control of this state and reversing all the bad legislation. It would take many years of republican control to fix it. Me thinks the state really needs to get to bankruptcy, necessitating the suspension of all these free money, food, medical. Then people will vote the other way.

I may have just convinced myself to leave this state. 😔

Keep working on it Jacques! We will all miss you........as soon as you are gone.

And Sonja Shaw, California State Suoerintendent of Public Instruction. Our children are not guinea pigs. They are not up for grabs to the highest bidder. Shame on the democrats for turning our children into caged puppy mill captives. .

We can only pray and hope. That Hilton and Gates are victorious! It’s the only available choice. If California is going to be saved. From the Dumbacrats and their dumb policies.

Peanut's avatar

Thank you James! Yes I'm voting Michael Gates. Voting no Woke no Rhino ticket.

I’m not sure California can be rescued. I live here!!

If only a majority of California voters had the intelligence and ability to think critically...
