In reply to the discussion: CA wants to move to head of class in primaries. See ya Iowa....Kind of love this. [View all]TDale313
(7,822 posts)But that really would shut lesser known candidates out. I like the idea of rotating regional primaries. That seems most fair to me.
I don't expect California to always be first or early- that would unfair. I would love to see it, at least occasionally, be in the mix. To not have the primaries be decided before it gets to us every time. And because of the electoral college and the fact that we're deep blue, our votes become pretty superfluous in the general, too.
This, of course, is just talking about the Presidental race. State and local races, we're doing incredible stuff here, and I really like the vast majority of our Congress people. Sen Harris is great, and Sen Feinstein's even been stepping up in a lot of ways. Too bad the red states have so much outsized influence there, too.
