First Special Congressional Election of 2017 Held in California

On April 4, the first special congressional election of 2017 was held in Los Angeles County, California. Two Democrats each polled about 25% of the vote. Because no one got 50%, these two Democrats will face off in a run-off in June. They are Assemblyman Jimmy Gomez, and Robert Lee Ahn, a former Los Angeles planning Commissioner who raised more money than any other candidate in this race.

Here are the preliminary election results.

  1. Kenneth Mejia didn’t to bad (He won seventh place and that to me its specially start new age of third party politics) especially beat Republican candidate out of waterpark.

    I make me just piss that that establishment democrat Gomez guy won unanimously because those that name recognition and bias back up by state chapter of Democratic Party despite there so many other democratic and write-in candidates to endorse normally.

  2. @Larry Allred Yea pretty much could use Approval voting (or I wish American calling that ‘Favorable voting’, But yet think about why could using most all three non-FPTP systems on all different levels until the US has successfully become multi-party nation.
