California Dems better wise up...for 2018 midterms.

[busterbrown]

This link explains the problems the California Primary System "Jungle Primary" presents.

Are you fucking kidding? We have a tremendous opportunity to pick up a couple of seats because of the retirements of 2 Repubs,However if too many Dems. decide to run..It could dilute our vote and allow Repubs to win.......Dems. better get their acts together..QUICKLY

1. The CDP will make an endorsement before the primary

Which would likely put their candidate in the top two in those districts.

2. CDP? (Not Familiar)

3. California Democratic Party? Maybe?

Just guessing.

6. California Democratic Party

They make endorsements before every primary and mail them out to all their voters.

4. And whom do we ask to drop out?

Because once you do, their supporters scream that the system is rigged.

5. They wouldn't be wrong at that point...n/t

[RandySF]

7. If someone doesnt get out of the CA-39 race

We could wind up with an R v R race.

8. I see the problem.

The solution isn't to single out someone (or multiple people) to leave the race. It's either to change the rules or have a publicly viewable meeting of all candidates to decide amongst themselves who leaves.

9. State Constitution

No time to change it
