I mean, you have this long voting period that coincides with the last month of the campaign. Why shouldn’t voters wait and assess the candidates and then make up their mind? That would be the good government approach. It’s not the business of the State to urge them to cut that https://t.co/XwDtLhEG1H

WHO WROTE THIS, STEVE HILTON? California mail-in ballots just started arriving at homes. The official voter guide says “Don’t Delay, Vote Today! Mail in your ballot as soon as you receive it.” In other words it’s urging Dems to vote for governor before they see which candidate

Rich Baris’ claim to have been misled into working on “a large-scale poll that was funded by business interests to display fake support for a workplace amnesty” is interesting.
