If California switched to a better voting system, we wouldn't have to write or read these kind of articles... STAR Voting or Approval Voting would both work really well for this insane gubernatorial election. Check out https://equal.vote/. Get involved. Let's ditch this horrible system we currently use!

The idea of a Becerra vs Hilton contest would be so disappointing and unmotivating.

Agreed, just vote for whats right anyhow. I'm pretty torn on porter and styre myself....this weekends the time to decide tho

I voted for Porter because she is who I want. It's tough to not consider voting strategically. I really wish California offered Ranked choice voting so I could vote for Porter first choice, steyer second, etc.

Ugh, looks like we're getting another neoliberal governor.
