7. The thing is that there are plenty of races in California

that are not sure things. In other states as well. By spending so much time poking around races that have a known outcome, we're not paying attention to the ones who could use help. The CA Governor's race is not in question, nor is it even competitive. Once it was clear that a Democrat would appear on the general election ballot, that election result was known.

If you're interested in California elections, take a look at the rest of them. You'll see that not all are at all decided.

But, nobody's going to post about those here. Not even me. I don't live or vote in California any longer.

We have a very interesting State Senate race in my district, though, that could go either way. There's a good shot to flip the seat. That's the one I'm working on. My wife and I have been supporting the Democratic candidate since we helped her win her first legislative election, replacing a Republican. That's where change is made.

But the California Governor's race? That one's over now.
