Sounding like we could lose two more Senate seats. Webb has just taken the lead, Steele is behind. Ugh.

Angelides was whipped in the Bay Area. Usually a Democrat wins there big.

McClintock is pulling away with each update. I hope that trend holds.

I hate to beat a dead horse but what's your gut take on Prop. 90?

People like him. He's out of sync with this state's politics but Californians agree with him we have too expensive government that doesn't return a lot of value for the money.

On judges, I noticed. Every one of them voted back in. Not a surprise. Next to no one knows a thing about them. Need to work on that for the future.
Jerry Brown (Dem) 874,827 50.9 %
Chuck Poochigian (Rep) 763,746 44.4 %
Brown slipping.

Poochigian will lose but he's running a surprisingly strong race. Neverthless Brown probably can't take office because he's ineligible.

Do you think Prop. 90 will pass? I hope so. I think it's gonna be a nail biter. the "No" campaign poured tons of money and lies into the debate and there was literally no "Pro" campaign.
Fingers crossed!

White House's first reaction to Dems House takeover is optimism for getting "comprehensive immigration reform."

Yeah. I'd hate to see a good measure go down to defeat for want of getting the story out. Still all the tax increase propositions are DOA.

The dillholes in my county(Sonoma) are passing the stupid Smart Rail , but Marin county is NOT passing theirs. They both have to pass in order for the train to be built.

I admit, I didn't expect Poochigian to do so well against the legendary Brown.

Riverside County still hasn't post in results and they are conservative.
