COOK POLITICAL shifts CA-39 and CA-49 (Issa) back towards Republicans

[brooklynite]

CA-39: OPEN (Royce) | Lean D to Toss Up
CA-49: OPEN (Issa) | Lean D to Toss Up

Both of these races have 4 person Primary fields which are burning large amounts of cash, and risk dividing the Democratic vote such that two Republicans make it into the runoff.

1. It's reasonable

We don’t know yet if Dems will make the November ballot.

2. What the hell is wrong with this country?

I'm becoming so dejected over all the bad news. The Generic ballot is now leaning towards Republicans. This race is back leaning to Republicans. Trump's attacks on the media and Mueller are working. Republicans in Congress are calling again for a Special Counsel to investigate Mueller and remove him.

This truly feels like a dictatorship.

4. It is mostly because of chaos on our Dem side, and our (I am Cali) CA jungle primaries

3. CA-49 is a bloody mess on the Dem side, same for CA-48 (Russian boot-lick Rohrabacher)
