[Demovictory9]

California has a "two highest vote getters" election system, that locked the GOP out this year.

The poll found that 47% of Republicans and 24% of independents say they don’t plan to vote in the Senate race at all.

Feinstein leads De León with support from 66% of Democrats and 38% of independents and leads in all demographic categories, including ethnicity, gender, geography and education.

Feinstein received 44% of the vote in the June primary and has a dominant lead in fundraising as she seeks a fifth full term in the U.S. Senate.

The survey of 1,711 California adult residents took place between July 8 and July 17. The margin of sampling error was plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.

1. Lets hope the Rs stay home

That would help in close congressional races. They know the Governor's race is over, Newsom is way ahead. The Senate race is over, as far as an R is concerned.
So with no chance at the top of the ballot, Rs will stay home. No hot button propositions to stir them up either.

2. STOP! EVERY VOTER NECESSARY.

Please Democrats,Independents, and ultra-liberal Republicans: DO NOT RATIONALIZE AWAY THE NEED FOR YOUR VOTE. WE NEED TO DEMONSTRATE LOUDLY, AND CLEARLY THE POWER OF MANY.

8. The post talks only about dems and republicans, which seems like

a good thing, but I agree that the "sure thing"-ness of the election might keep dems at home. And we do need everyone voting. But its nice we are assured a Dem regardless.

10. Not Rs...and there no liberal GOP types in my opinion.

3. Yes, they're very disappointed that the open Nazi GOP candidate didn't win.

And so, they’ll stay home. Good. I hope they all stay home.

4. I still remember Senator Feinstein when briefed with Grassley

Shocked she was. Shocked.

Grassley's been awfully quiet.

6. Stay home Republikkans in California

Do not vote at all

7. The GOP needs to stay home EVERYWHERE

and in California - GOPers need to sit it out and don't even bother with the U.S. House elections either.

9. I am hoping republican voter apathy grows and grows

AND seniors turn against republicans as the yhear more about the impending cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid

11. Its carved in stone that 47% (ironic percentage) of GOP in CA won't vote in NOV? Too soon ...

to let up on them now.

12. Good - they need to stay home

and not vote at all - that makes it more likely that the few US House members from CA will lose as well. Would love to see Nunes get shocked as well as Rohrbacher and a few others gone as well.
