a friend reports 2 democrats running against each other in CA.. because of the way CA changed their rules..

How the hell does that work?

something about the most vote getters in the primary.

how can 2 democrats running for the same senate seat on the ballot be right?

‘Jungle’ primary. Top two face off in general election. Used in the South to keep blacks from winning.

Its true and it sucks. Yes the two highest vote getters in the primary move on to the general. Thanks Arnold... anyhow we had a choice between Diane Fienstein and a straight on Marxist. Nice choice huh?

Anyhow I'll fess up for the first time ever I voted for a democrat for Senate, for Fienstein. Ahhh stop throwing things.

I thought after all she gave us the Kavanaugh smear job that got the Republicans energized its least I could do.

I think if the House holds and seats are gained in the senate she'll be one of the main scapegoats and I'd like her there for the roasting.

I'm pretty sure in this instance my vote doesn't matter. I still feel dirty and there is this small feeling of self-loathing in my stomach.

It’s called a jungle primary.

You can thank “girly-man” Schwarzenegger for that piece of crap change to our primary system in CA.
