California | Miscellaneous Notes

Kerry won California by 10%, one point less than Al Gore in 2000. Helping to close the gap was a 4% increase in votes for President Bush in Los Angeles county, a very blue area of the state.

Barbara Boxer wins by 19. The Republicans will have to go back to the drawing board to run against Diane Feinstein.

Incumbents have successfully protected their seats in the State Senate and Assembly. The gerrymandering appears to have made almost every single race uncompetitive.

Yep, I still have the same Congressman for the entire 24 years I lived in my district. At this point, I sincerly don’t see how I can vote Henry Waxman out of Congress.

Thanks for signing in, . Now you can comment. (Click here should you choose to sign out.)

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
