” As bad as CT but nicer weather.”
LOL from a CT Yankee in Japan .
Fox clearly PROJECTED the election for Boxer and Brown.
They did the same thing for Sheheen in S.C., but they were wrong! Haley ended up winning.
Fox should not be doing this.
I spent 54 years in CA before leaving for reasons other than the economy, its fiscal state, and its politics. To those who know it, CA is a wonderful state in many ways other than the aforementioned. I remember it when it was quite conservative, especially in Orange County and in San Diego, my home town. But it’s become a victim of its changing demographics. Maybe it has to hit absolute rock bottom before any chance for meaningful change.
At least, they did it after the polls closed!
I didn’t see them screw up haley. They showed where she was losing but never projected or called a winner until they chose Haley. At least not that I saw and I’ve been watching all night.
Unfortunately, the tide has turned for the worst.

No problem here. California is too damned big to be run like a fiefdom for the left. Split it up.

Hugh influx of vote by mail ballots (over 100K) won’t be counted until Friday
No, no, West was the correct call. I doubt too many of them can swim more than half a mile in the Pacific. :P
I'm going to Nevada....Carson City. Now, if I can only sell my house here...
Not a dime. I mean it. I will fight tooth and nail against any kind of bailout for the pathetic addicted to the government teat morons in that pathetic state. Jeez, pride is not common there is it. Freeps get out now the parasites will kill the host....Brown and Boxer. are you kidding me.. facepalm
Much depends on which counties are reporting. We have no chance in San Francisco and Al A, but the rural counties have paper ballots!
As written Prop 19 was an over reaching mess ... but it was pro states rights and promised to free up prison space and otherwise free up justice system resources, de-fund gangs, make the National Forests safer for recreation, hurt the cartels and turn millions of otherwise solid citizens from criminals back to being compliant with the law. CA is hosed in so many ways it boggles the mind. Given a choice, the average CA voter seems intent on doing the wrong thing.
Sadly, I think the state will actually have to go bankrupt -- and not get bailed out by the feds -- before the pols and voters in California get it.
Too stupid to breath, no wonder it’s blue!
How can they declare a winner with 10% of the vote in?
California needs to split into two.

He won because of all the union robots were told that if they didn’t vote for moonbeam that they would lose their jobs. I know first hand from my dumb@as nephew who works for the state.....when he decides to show up for work that is!!
That kid gets away with so much crap, he wouldn’t last a week in the private sector.
Campbell would have been one of the best and probably the brightest conservative economists in the Senate. Boxer would have been toast. This proves California will not elect a true conservative to a state office. The democrats outnumber Republicans by a couple million voters. The only way to get around it is galloping Rinoism. You can't ignore the numbers.
If a couple of the radical environmentalist propositions pass, you guys in other states can start licking your chops at all the jobs and businesses that are coming your way.And I'm sure these will pass, as nothing makes the heart of a California Liberal flutter more than an environmental proposition.
