re: #157 freetoken

We’re one of the 50 states, and there were many races in California without a Republican on the ticket (the most notable being US Senate.)

No amount of Republican spending in this state will change that.

We’re (California) culturally different than the now religious-right/fundamentalist national Republican party.

The more the national GOP goes for the atavism, the less and less they will have room in California. (and Oregon and probably Washington too.)

My ballot only had one vote on it: for Hillary Clinton. That was the only Democrat on the ballot. My Representative got 100% of the vote as an unopposed candidate - the Dems couldn’t be bothered to run anyone.

Even though I have no chance, I enquired from the state party about how to raise money for the $1,740 filing fee to run against Adrian Smith and try to put together a campaign. Like every other letter, call, and message I have sent to the state party, I’ve had no response. Forget hearing anything from the DCCC or the National Party except when they want me to donate to elect people on the coasts.

I fully expected to be whomped if I ran against Adrian Smith. I suspect my past would be enough to sink me against the Hypocrite Party (erotic Romance editor running against a candidate from the Pussy Grabbing thrice-married party).
