Anybody but the traiterous incumbant Gavin Newsom, who just threw trans people under the bus.
I'll vote for her over Harris any day.
Wasn't she the single mother raging against people deciding on single mother issues without even having a shred of knowledge on it? That was great.
Yes please!!
Oh I’m so voting for her again.
Same
Another corporate pawn in progressive clothing. Her whiteboard can't erase her voting record.
🐱🐱
I'm on board if she brings a whiteboard and schools people after putting forth actual legislation based on real data. She'll be amazing in any political seat she is elected to.
Katie Porter is one of the very few good guys. She'd be a terrific governor for California, so I expect the Democratic Party will do all they can to oppose her.
If she isn't the Dem nominee she should still run. I think we could put a progressive in here in CA.
California has jungle primaries where the top two (usually both Democrats) go on to contest the general election iirc..
It allows me to remain registered as a Republican but vote liberal every election. I just don’t know how you change affiliation at this point. And I don’t care after so long.
Yep, one of the funnier end results seems to be the gradual recreation of the Progressive Republicans at least in my area. Though it should be noted they are still small and being actively ignored but the rest of the Republicans.
Harris is going to run and don't you know this was her promised consolation prize. So sorry progressives, maybe in a 100 years when everyone in line in front of you dies?
Has she confirmed? I haven’t seen anything yet. Amy did well enough in the senate race. But she won’t beat Kamala if she runs. The power has shifted to NorCal/Bay area politicians to win elections.
She hasn't confirmed yet but that's how the corporate political caste does things. They use the "soft announcement" to start testing messaging and campaign ideas. Then when they publicly decide they're actually running they can denounce anything from before that.
Why yes, there does seem to be a plastic-democrat that urgently needs replacing. Good on her!
I’m so sick of Democrats ripping off a mask to reveal they’re Republican.
I’d like for once it to be the other way around, or for a Dem to rip it off and reveal they’re even further left.
alot ofr republicans will switch thier parties to D, because they arnt right wing enough to be voted as one, and then either switch back parties immediately or vote like a DINO republican.
There's no financial incentive in doing that, so it's going to disproportionately be politicians moving to the right.
All she has to do is tell me she's not going to fuck over consumers with regards to solar to protect regionally monopolistic power conglomerates who are literally killing people due to old equipment in wild fire corridors. Fuck Gavin Newsome.
I would love to see PG&E get their asses handed to them.
Eh, they just pass all the pain on to consumers
you're not imagining a wide enough ass kicking here. i want them take over by the state lol
Oh, in that case I suppose they should be allowed to continue killing people.
Go Katie I will vote for you.
He's got a good chance because she's extremely popular outside of core Democratic hubs. Ita going to be a question of if she is willing to buck the system. Frankly, after the ratfucking of 2024, I think she could make real waves running as an independent; as a Democrat she'll be open to the same weaknesses as we saw in the 2024 campaign.:DNC power brokers will quite litterally support fascists in their ability to win elections rather than have their own power challenged.
