On Excessive Political Influence

In their bids for governor, Xavier Becerra, Tom Steyer, and Steve Hilton attributed California’s systemic issues to Donald Trump, corporations, and the Democratic party, respectively. That rhetoric might appeal to some voters but not to the facts. Becerra’s claims are undermined by the fact that California has significantly lagged behind other states during the Trump (and, for that matter, Biden) presidencies.

Reflections on the CA Election Results

In the June 2 election, my efforts were centered on backing two exceptional individuals for Governor and Insurance Commissioner and opposing SEIU’s Proposition D tax increase in San Francisco.

Vote Exceptional

When voting, take Emily Hoeven’s advice and refuse to limit yourself to “a subset of mediocre candidates simply because of what the polls say.”
