this Brady fellow will have to achieve at least a LITTLE name recognition.. right now NOBODY has ever heard of him...

where’s all the conservative money, anyway>? Even Californication WILL VOTE for OTHER than their existing communist ruling clique.................really .... if given half a chance, that is

totally unknown candidates .. or self-disgraced RINOs.. are no longer welcome almost anywhere.....people just don’t want to bother voting for the McShames or Lindsays or other RINO sellouts, or nut jobs. and for all practical purposes the R party in Californcation is known as a weekend golf and country club foursome.........which almost never even tries to win any public offices... and which almost always runs essentially RINO sellout candidates anyway. What a shame, CA is a one party dictatorship... partially, anyway, because there’s no serious second party challenging it

Republican and conservative candidates got screwed in California in 2012 when the state went from closed primaries to open primaries, and only the top 2 vote winners went on to the General election.
The Dems would target a moderately conservative district, and under the table push 6 or 8 so called Republican candidates to split all the conservative votes.
The Dem running in that district would get all the Dem votes, and a lot of votes from the weirdo parties that didn’t even have one of their candidates on the ballot.
So you wind up with a weak Repub candidate (you know, all those rubberheads who aren’t going to vote for him because he ain’t my guy) running against a strong Demo candidate.
Works really well, I haven’t seen a Repulican candidate make the General in my district in 10 years.
