Steve Hilton and Spencer Pratt are spectacular candidates, but you can't overcome the math.
But again, we're in a primary now.
We're just trying to figure out who's going to go against who.
in the general election.
And we're talking about processes which are just ridiculous on their face.
California changed its primary rules to be what's called a jungle primary.
It's not an actual primary where they're trying to figure out, in this two-party system, we're going to have a person from this party and a person from that party, and they're going to face off.
They changed it so that it's the two top vote-getters.
And they changed it because they wanted to make sure
that it was Democrats who are the only statewide candidates in California because it's such a blue state.
And so you might ask yourself, well, why would they do that?
Because the Democrats are going to win anyway.
And the reason is when you have statewide races, when you have gubernatorial races, those drive turnout downstream and down the ticket.
And when you have really, really close congressional representation where control of Congress might be decided by one or two votes, what you want to do if you were just wanting to get to a result is you want to make sure you're discouraging down ballot voting of your opponent.
So what's the best way to do that?
You cook your primaries.
so that the only people at the top of the ticket are one party.
And that creates massive down ballot effects for the opposing party.
And so it just, you know, California is, I know it's America.
I know it's a very advanced economy.
