“Generous benefits, (EBT, food stamps, free apartment, free phone, free healthcare) are NOT counted. The person who gets all those, which add up to $50,000 or more a year, is still counted as POOR.”

And it doesn’t count all the money they get from selling drugs, identity theft, robberies and every other crime known to man.

Texas big cities are going to take over the state, as they have here in CA and the “real” Texans won’t have a say any longer.

Yep. Happening here in AZ at an astonishing pace.

Yeah, the data is from the Trump Administration’s Bureau of the Census under Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross.
The new data was released yesterday.

“Yep. Happening here in AZ at an astonishing pace.”

Isn’t that way with just about everything. You can go broke over night, but then it takes years to recover, if you ever do. The same is true with totalitarianism ( which is what the Democrat “philosophy” is when you strip away their bull$hit. Argentina had the Perons, California has had “The Browns.” Collectively, Jerry, his dad, and Gray Davis (who was Jerry’s first Chief of Staff) have “run” California for more than 30 years. Even Reagan’s term between the Brown’s was only a fleeting picture of what a conservative could do for the state. The RATs don’t really give a RAT’s A$$ about the Beaners, they are simply a means to an end. And it was funny how the Blacks here “teamed up” with the Mexicans to help take over. But now that the Mexicans have an independent handle on politics here, they’ve told the few surviving Blacks to FO and get out of the way. You notice here that the Willie Brown/Tom Bradley/Mervyn Dymally Era has been over for a couple of decades and there are no significant Black office holders here today. And in the end, the Mexicans will consolidate their power with the prolific use of their genitalia. They are way, way better at procreation than even the Blacks, and that’s saying a lot. And they don’t abort their children like the Blacks (and too many Whites) do.

Not saying Travis Allen will be elected. Just saying we actually have a strong Conservative running for a change.

Polling shows most likely the two candidates for governor will both be Democrats, Gavin Newsome and Antonio Villaragosa as the are the top 2 vote getters in the primary. But Allen has pulled to within 5 points of Villaragosa. Hopefully he can overtake him and he will up against Newsome.

People in the state are starting to grow weary. Browns gas and car tax are unpopular. People in cities up and down the state are complaining at city council meetings about the massive influx of homeless drug addicts in their communities. Democrats actually dropped trying to pass a Sactuary State bill due to lack of support from the people.

Who knows maybe enough people will be fed up by this time next year to elect a Conservative?

Still, as it stands now, Gavin Newsome is a huge shoo in.

Your data is backed up by government is it? Is the figure 12 million illegals in country accurate too? Government has been feeding that to you for 30 years. It must be true right? And I couldn't help but notice, you completely evaded my question. Lets try once more.

Ya say 66k is median income in CA? What’s that after taxes? 36k? Are ya going to buy a home in CA on 35k?

You stated 66k is median income in CA? What’s that after taxes? 36k? Are you going to buy a home in CA on 35k? How come you make comments then completely evade questions regarding your own comments?

Ya see Nero Germanicus you've already announced you're on line and on site here, yet you still evade questions regarding your own comments.

That makes you a poser, a fraud, a deceptive disingenuous individual with terrible character.

I'll be looking for ya! ☺
