With the current state legislature I imagine your scenario is moot. Can you realistically see the majority California Dems legislature drafting a shall issue CCW law?
When voting for Simon, kick out a state legislative incumbent too. Go Simon Go!
I bet you are wrong. But for starters, no such thing will get anywhere near the Governor's desk as long as the Senate has 26 Dems to 14 Reps, and the Assembly has 50 Dems to 30 Reps, and they are riding into the next election on a fresh gerrymander that will keep them safe for another 10 years.
A Republican governor's role in California for the near future will be to veto all the wacky social engineering and collectivist legislation that the Rats send his way, and more importantly to put the state's finances back in order through his job as leader of the budget process. It's going to be a long rough road for Californians for the next few years, even with a good Republican as governor.
Go Simon!!
