The debate at the end of the first week after ballots were mailed to registered voters was combative but offered voters few real differences of opinion between the progressive Evan Low and the moderate Sam Liccardo.
Defend the Vote said that Low’s state campaign committee is funded through money that is not permitted to be spent in federal elections, and that he is using impermissible funds on federal campaign ads.
The alliance between Kamala Harris and Laurene Powell Jobs is a genuine 20-year friendship that has thrust the press-shy billionaire philanthropist into the political spotlight.
On the first survey question posed to likely 16th District voters, Liccardo leads Low 42% to 28%, according to a memo from the pollsters. The margin of error is plus or minus 4%.
Low's Silicon Valley constituents could lose tens of millions of dollars in local tax revenues if Gavin Newsom signs a bill that allows casino-owning tribes to sue private card rooms, their competitors.
A trio of California Democratic lawmakers say they’re frustrated by high cost estimates that helped kill their health care legislation. Did the Newsom administration inflate the numbers to quietly kill the bills?
Party leaders at the Democratic convention in Chicago sent a clear message to California delegates: Kamala Harris needs a Democratic Congress to succeed if she’s elected president.
While the Democratic Party has rallied around Vice President Kamala Harris after President Joe Biden bowed to pressure not to run for re-election, a few uncommitted delegates may still need convincing.
Compared with the calls for cat ladies, white dudes and others, the group of venture capitalists supporting the Vice President was small, at around 600.
When President Joe Biden attempted to slam the door shut on Democrats’ pleas for him to withdraw, it was former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who subtly, but very publicly nudged the door back open.
These new numbers continue the trends set by Sam Liccardo in the first quarter, and are sharp indicators of the uphill battle that Evan Low faces in his bid for the prized Silicon Valley congressional seat.
As Democrats have panicked over President Joe Biden’s lackluster debate performance and looked elsewhere for a potential replacement, California Gov. Gavin Newsom is the talk of the town. But how would he fare on the national stage?
