California voters made history on Tuesday in the race for the U.S. Senate, sending two Democrats to a November runoff and denying a Republican a spot on the fall ballot for the first time since the state’s first direct election of senators in 1914.

State Atty. Gen. Kamala Harris won the largest share of the vote and the title of winner in the primary. By the end of the night, Harris led Orange County Rep. Loretta Sanchez by more than 800,000 votes, a margin of 23 percentage points.

No longer will California have a choice between Democrat or Republican candidates in political races. Now it gets down to which Communist they prefer of the 2 candidates.The Senate race pits a black communist against a hispanic communist.Time to move to Arizona.

Some leftist proposed dividing the US into smaller countries based on ethnicity. Not a bad idea, except parasites will never give up their hosts.

Look at the bright side - Harris (the anointed D) is replacing Babs Boxer (23 years in office). Its not like the “Golden” state is changing direction. The top 3 Republican candidates combined could not break 17 % of the vote. Does anyone have the local U-Haul number ?

Hmmmm. Take a look at the picture of mx. harris. Seems a little “cultural appropriation” taking place there camel-uh. Is she ashamed of her Jamaican heritage by straightening her hair? Or is that just her Indian genes showing through.

Gee. I figured that the top vote getters from each party would win the chance to take it to November.

My faith in what was once the United States falls a bit further each day.

Well, they are replacing "dumb as a box of rocks" Boxer.

So, no change except we'll be stuck with the winner for the next 40 years.

So people in California have ones like Harris or Sanchez to choose from. A few years ago, I watched a documentary on PBS about the history of Silicon Valley and it was hard to believe that that place got started in the mid to late 1950s (with an electronics company from New York setting up shop there) because California had been electing Republicans for years and as such had such a business friendly environment and very reasonable tax rates.

It really is disturbing to see all of these years later that the lawyers, movie actors and producers and executives, stockbrokers, bond and currency traders, and high tech executives (who moved their labour offshore years ago) vote in lowlifes like Harris because they can afford wacko socialist ideas and that it is portrayed as hip to do so.

I believe I read that in Pennsylvania, a Tea Party candidate actually won the Democrat primary, so voters have a choice between a Tea Party and a Republican. It’s all good.

If the system allowed voters to prevent Democrats from having a candidate in the general election, they would sue and a liberal court would decide that it is unconstitutional to deny a party a place on the ballot. If Republicans are kept off the ballot, it is celebrated.

Now you know what’s in store for the rest of America.

And the stupid Republican establishment is helping us get there with their Trump Derangement Syndrome.

In 30 years, there will be only two factions of the Democrat party - the Democrats and the Hispanics.

This race is the first example of what is coming.

The Democrats own California.


The emigration waves from the east coast in the 1950’s to the 1980’s brought not only east coast liberals but also east coast RINOs to California.....

The 1990’s saw internal Republican Party fights that resulted in the conservative Californian Republican party losing the party reins to transplanted east coast RINOs.

Thee RINOs promptly ceded California to the increasingly radical Democrats. We got Boxer and Pelosi in the process.

Once conservative California has become a socialist hellhole because of the above..... and it’s getting worse. Open borders policies have seen an influx of Mexican/Central American illegal aliens many of whom support the re-conquista goals of the racist organization “La Raza.” In a few years I can see a vote in the California legislatures to leave the US and become a part of Mexico.

Unless California is saved by a Trump Administration’s cleaning of the illegal alien sewers and a building of a wall my California is lost.

The last box is appearing on the horizon.

“Unless California is saved by a Trump Administration’s cleaning of the illegal alien sewers and a building of a wall my California is lost.”

and unless California is saved the rest of the country will follow us down this same road.

This is the last chance to reverse the damage that the treason lobby of Bush and Obama have inflicted. It could even be too late.
