Hopefully many of the loons here won’t remember the lessons they should have learned in Nov 2016 regarding media predictions and polling.


I looked at the numbers and it may be CA's best chance, but realistically it is the same story. 2.6 million voted in the primary for Dems Newsom (1.6 mil) Villaigarosa (.6 mil), and Chiang (.4 mil) while Republicans drew 1.8 million voters with Cox getting 1.2 mil. But when you look at the 2016 Presidential election, Hillary got 9 million votes from leftist idiots while Trump received 4.5 mil. Voters tend to come out for general elections rather than primaries.

As far as Feinstein, as long as the embalmer can keep her looking somewhat human, she'll win again. But once she is dead, her replacement will be a full-on leftist commie radical like de Leon.

The masses will show up in November and dutifully check the name with the D next to it. If there's more than one D to choose from they'll check the one that the church or union or community organizer told them would deliver more free stuff. Newsom will win in a rout. Feinstein will too. The only way this place turns around is after it craters.

So if all the Trump voters show up and only half the Hillary voters show, we're gonna have ourselves a horserace!

No, I agree. Good chance? Nope. Best chance in years? Yep.

Depressing, isn't it? Still gotta try, though. A depressed D showing would be fantastic.

In the 2014 Governor race Brown garned 4.38 million (60%). The Republican challenger got 2.92 million (40%).... Is a roughly 10% swing doable? I don't know. Maybe with the combined effects of a disenfranchies D vote and a motivated R vote....

In any event, it's likely not gonna happen but it sure would be grand.
