In a battle between two Californians considering Democratic runs for president in 2028, Gov. Gavin Newsom holds a slight edge over former Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new poll.
The poll, conducted by Politico and The Citrin Center public opinion firm, found Newsom is the top choice of 25% of California’s Democratic voters in the 2028 Democratic primary, leading all prospective candidates including Harris, the 2024 Democratic nominee, who is supported by 19% of the state’s Democrats.
The two high-profile Californians are followed in the poll by former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg (13%), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (10%), Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (4%) and New Jersey U.S. Sen. Cory Booker (4%).
I honestly can’t believe they haven’t learned the consequences of doing nothing when the bare minimum would have saved so many people.
I am left to believe that trump’s bot campaign is back in full force because frankly, I cannot believe someone can be this willfully ignorant.
The important thing here is that you’re right and should continue preaching the same message because it worked so well the last time. And changing tactics wouldn’t be a sign of learning something or not being lazy.
Its the voters fault that the candidates are shit…
Yeah. I think they’re just young idealists, trying to signal their values on social media.
I don’t think Lemmy is much of a target for bots but I feel like we get the back scatter - actual users parroting the narrative they picked up elsewhere.
