Sacramento -- In numbers that reflect party allegiance far more than individual political star power, California voters favor Democrats in most statewide races including lieutenant governor and attorney general, according to a Field Poll released today .

But the poll is good news for some Republicans: State Sen.

California is lost.

The Dems have a solid lock, which they are re-inforcing with more measures to enable illegals to vote and make vote fraud in general much easier.

Forget California. It is lost. I know--I live here.

I don't see one Dem incumbent over 50% in that story.
