We were talking about turnout...Note this trend.... The two highest turnout Non Presidential races....

The poll projects a statewide turnout of 65 percent, a percentage not exceeded in a non-presidential race since 1982, when 69.8 percent of Californians cast ballots in a gubernatorial race that saw George Deukmejian beat Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley.

Ten million votes cast would top the most ever recorded in a California non-presidential race. The current high is 8.9 million for the 1994 re-election of Gov. Pete Wilson over Kathleen Brown.

High turnout been berry berry good to Cali Pubbies...

Nickles won't run again in Oklahoma. That is not good news. He is one of the few good guys.

The current high is 8.9 million for the 1994 re-election of Gov. Pete Wilson over Kathleen Brown.

Prop 187 brought out the vote that day. It pushed Wilson to a second term and, if it had been embraced by the Republican Senate Candidate, he would have beaten Feinstein too.
