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%).
Supporting the Democrats is supporting fascist enablers. Well they had power. They gave up two supreme Court pics. They were more than happy to rally behind a false immigration debate, they avoided the prosecution of actual criminals. Just assuming that they would go away, they failed to codify roe v. Wade in law. The Democrats have basically for the last 50 years done. Almost nothing short of handover power and make a really crappy healthcare system. Slightly less crappy temporarily.
We’re here now because they didn’t have the backbone to fight fascists.
