Immigration Sellout @DarrellIssa appears to have made it into a runoff for Duncan Hunter's old seat. But this is California, so they'll be counting for another month or so. https://t.co/uwJPQyGmuB

What we need to know, from a few more primaries, is whether the [Dem.] primary electorate is comfortable with Biden as their “beat Trump” champion, or whether they’d be interested in seeing what a brokered convention might produce. Clearly, they do not want to nominate Sanders https://t.co/jV1HUxhcXb

Yes, if you were Biden strategist you'd be figuring ways to minimize voter exposure to your candidate. How? As @ByronYork notes, impeachment once provided useful distraction. What could do that now? Coronavirus? Need to keep public appearances and crowds to a minimum! https://t.co/uVPIV5IN01

I didn't notice before that Smith ends his column with a quote anointing himself as "chief insurgent" (in the earlier era before the NYT bestrode the earth as colossus). https://t.co/xnhmiY7rCP

.@MaryMacTV vs. @benyt: Mac on points. Smith is solipsistic. Wherever he is is the place to be! In his piece on me, he assumed the heyday of blogging was when he blogged (it wasn't). Then Buzzfeed was the future (it wasn't). Now NYT a "reigning colossus"! https://t.co/8v5UzT8Dtb

It's 10 PM California Time and there are still long lines outside L.A. "Vote Centers." Registrar Logan really should resign. 'It's worse in Texas' isn't much of an excuse. https://t.co/Wa2DHDAdnn

Turns out LA's badly planned Vote Center system was a County operation, so the belly flop is mainly on @LACountyRRCC Dean Logan. But @AlexPadilla4CA approved it: https://t.co/gpelYR9b3Y https://t.co/9R2Hd1wuJJ

The machines work *so* well that it's a bit hard to believe that they don't somehow know who you voted for too. As long as they don't tell Alexa.
