Sorry, but you two are wrong. The Democrat Party has attempted to break any opposition in California by rigging the process. The Cox campaign is a step to frustrate that effort.
Politics is not static, California was not always the leftist stronghold it seems to do today. West Virginia was once dominated by Democrats, now it is thouroughly Trump Country. Wisconsin was the home of Progresivism, Trump won there.
Californians are slowly recognizing the costs of leftist policies. So what if Cox cant win this year? Campaign after campaign we should wear away at leftist dominance of a beautiful state like water on rock.
California is a lost cause. Allocating money for GOP candidates in CA is wasted money.
Hilary Clinton received 8,750,000 votes.
Donald J Trump received 4,500,000 votes.
That is almost DOUBLE. You are right that the Dems have CA rigged, but anybody who thinks that California could be in play for the GOP any time soon is in denial of the facts in evidence. It takes decades upon decades to overcome the demographics that cause a 4+ million vote deficit.
And yet what are those Demographics? 60% of all K-12 school children in California are Hispanic.
Let that sink in. Read that over again several times, because that is the future of California. The Democrats start with a built in 4+ million vote lead in California statewide elections and going forward, Hispanics will just widen that lead.
I appreciate your fight and optimism but California is a hopeless lost cause. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. GOP candidates in California are irrelevant and will remain so for the foreseeable future.
