She seems like a generic, boiler-plate California Democrat. Is this just like Keith Ellison where she hasn't really done anything, but happens to check a bunch of religious and/or ethnic boxes in the minds of the whacktivist crowd or are there some sort of meaningful accomplishments/qualifications she has that I'm missing?
There, the answer is in the question. Democrats are only concerned about skin-deep qualifications.
Partially this, partially because the Dem bench is so weak. How many Governors or Senators do they have from bigish purple states?
