ABC News Story on Possibility of No Democrat Appearing on November Ballot for California Governor — 16 Comments

  1. The story quotes many individuals. Do you think the reporter accurately quoted all those individuals? If not, why not? How would it be advantageous for any reporter to just make up quotes? That would quickly be uncovered, because the quoted individuals, if they didn’t really say those things, would bring the scandal to light.

  2. The Democrats would have only themselves to blame if they get shut out of the general election. They championed Top Two, they ran something like a dozen or so significant candidates this year. After years of Top Two shutting out just about all non-Presidential minor party and Independent candidates in CA, the Democrats might end up learning first hand what said candidates and parties have gone though. Hopefully it spurs them to repeal Top Two, something they should have done years ago when its immense flaws became obvious.

  3. California should divide into multiple states which provide more opportunities to be governor and senator.

  4. I’m taking bets from anyone who thinks the Democrats will get shut out. No way that happens.

  5. California Democratic politicians are not to blame for top-two. The people who caused it are Republicans: Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lieutenant Governor Abel Maldonado, and wealthy activist Charles Munger, R., who was at one time a Republican Party statewide officer.

  6. I sure hope this happens. Maybe it will inspire Democrats to repeal Top Two Primary and restore thr previous election law in California.

  7. Long overdue move by Liberator Trump to clean up the Sybil Disservice, and the Demonrats will be on the Gov ballot in California, unfortunately.

  8. It’ll never happen. I’d love to see it happen. But I’ll bet my salary for a year that there will be a Democrat on the ballot in November.
