The State of California changed our system to have a Louisiana-style (runoff) system, so only the top two candidates (from any party) are left standing. This is exactly why both Harris and Sanchez ran, to knock out the Republican candidate. And now they are infighting. Figures. Our choices are a racist black demagogue socialist vs. just slightly more centrist racist Hispanic socialist. Yay for California!

“Amazing that the GOP couldn’t even get a Senate candidate”!

“The State of California changed our system to have a Louisiana-style (runoff) system, so only the top two candidates (from any party) are left standing.”

A very bad system if you happen to be in the minority. Closed primary with winners from both parties facing off in the General election is better as you can actually get your candidates to the General election. You still may lose, but at least you had a chance.
