Newt Gingrich: California may elect a Republican governor -- Incredible as that sounds

John Cox is doing something remarkable for a Republican. A recent survey indicates he is now within striking distance of being elected governor of the infamously liberal state in November.

According to the Public Policy Institute of California, Cox (who I greatly respect and have worked with for years) has been gaining support since January and is now the second-place pick for governor among likely California primary voters. This puts him right behind the leading Democrat and represents a great potential for Cox to win the governorship seven months from now.

The poll result is important because California’s primary system for congressional and statewide elections is unusual.


Instead of running in individual party primaries, all candidates for governor of California – regardless of political party affiliation – will appear on a single ballot June 5. The two candidates who earn the most votes move on to the Nov. 6 gubernatorial election. Washington is the only other state that elects both congressional and state-level candidates this way.

Why does that sound "incredible"? Ever heard of Pete Wilson? Ronald Reagan? Earl Warren?

California has elected more Republican governors than Democrats --- even counting the time before the Republican Party began.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

That would be shocking

 

[whitehall]

One day they are going to secede from the union and the next day they are going to elect a republican governor. What a bunch of idiots.

Don’t forget the Governator

Except nobody suggested they're "seceding". That was South Carolina.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

It's daily news in California.

Will California secede from the union? Separation pushed amid cultural differences

Dishonesty: the lib platform. There's a whole movement in Cal to secede.

I notice you don't comment about the general dishonesty/retardation in the original post about Republican governors.

That would make it real clear how far left the democrats have gone if the worst state in the country is smart enough to elect a republican.

If California secedes, the next day it will be a Mexican state.

Once AGAIN, most of California's governors have been Republicans. In recent years as well as the distant past. This isn't something "different" at all.

As far as the worst state in the country, electing Republicans is pretty regular in South Carolina too. Member Mark Sanford? He got outed mistaking Argentina for the Appalachian Trail, and still got elected.

I’d prefer Travis Allen but John Cox will work.
The 5-10 million illegals here would shit themselves and scatter like the filthy cockroaches they are if they don’t have a governor rolling out the red carpet for them.

In your DREAMS ---Republicans are going to get wiped out this coming November.

Actually Louisiana does that too. I didn't look it up, I remember it from living there. It's called an "open" system.

You really should get your news from someplace other than CNN and/or FakeBook.
Should California secede? How the state is politically out of step with the rest of the country

 

[EvilCat Breath]

California's legislature is entirely democrat. This supermajority can override any Governor veto whether democrat or republican. This legislature is relying on the vote to separate the state from the federal government. If independence fails, look for some serious bloodshed to stuff more illegals into the state.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

An independent California can unanimously elect Hillary Clinton as the California president.
