re: #48 KGxvi

So, two quick thoughts on the California governor’s race:

1. Trump apparently endorsed John Cox (who wikipedia describes as “business man and perennial candidate). I can’t imagine him getting much traction, but apparently he’s got a shot to make the general election.

2. I saw my first negative ad of the year yesterday. Newsom was attacking John Chiang. I find it interesting that Newsom finds it necessary to attack someone who is reportedly hovering around 10% and thus a distant fourth place.

I’m seeing a lot of Feinstein commercials. I was going to vote for De Leon but now I’m scared that might open the door for the Nazi GOPer Patrick Little to get in 2nd place.

As for the Governor’s race, I’ve been seeing a Chiang group attacking Newsom over his affair with a staffer. And Chiang’s front group sent out a mailing attacking Villaraigosa’s affair. Interesting is that there are a lot of lawn signs for Klement Tinaj for Governor all over Koreatown. I have no clue as to who that is.

Berniebots are passing out leaflets and doing mailings for Gayle McLaughlin for Lieutenant Governor.

My sample ballot has Danny Thomas, in the #2 slot…Says he’s a dentist…makes me think of the glass table thing…
