#JunglePrimary
Newsom & @casendems.bsky.social never put #JunglePrimary repeal on CA ballot.
Why?
“Newsom’s 2018 campaign for governor devoted a lot of attention to Republican candidate John Cox, helping him finish second in the top-two primary, because Newsom did not want to face [Dem] Villaraigosa..in November”
California's Democrats are in trouble - there's a real possibility a Republican could win as governor because of the state's jungle primary system and current polling numbers.

California People still don’t get it. They are splitting the vote.
If 4 or 5 Democrats don’t voluntarily withdraw before the primary, the next California Governor will be a Republican.
Extremely Stupid.

#California’s top-two primary system, also known as the #JunglePrimary, allows the top two vote-getters in each #PrimaryElection race to advance to the general election, regardless of party.
