Against the backdrop of Republican gains across the country during the Obama era, California has gone the other way. During the Obama yearsCalifornia has become increasingly democratic, while the rest of the country has trended more Republican.
Geez, with a supermajority in Sacramento, a Democrat governor, and virtual assurance that the governor elected in 2018 will be a Democrat, California has got to be the Democrats dream come true. A place where they are in complete control.
That’s why we saw Tom Steyer in so many commercials this election. He is in the process of buying the governorship.
Why does a state with a Democratic Governor care about a SuperMajority?
