How do you fix American public transportation?

Stop electing Republicans would be the first step.

True. Also, you’d need to change the attitudes towards cars, especially in the South.

Even CA still struggles here, it's a sunbelt problem as most of the eastern seaboard has fairly decent transport (though still largely inadequate outside of DC, NYC, and maybe Philly).

I have very high standards for public transit (there's no excuse for being behind Hong Kong, let alone Paris) so even New York fails my expectations, but California transit is very clearly better the national average.

CA is way above national average. The state of public transportation and mass transit in this country is horrific. Still, there is more than plenty of objections or criticisms of the reality of pubic transit in CA.

I think Hogan is the worst/second worst governor in the country mostly because of this issue.

Yes!

This is where CA is underrated. "Liberal" states like VT, MA, MD can still elect Republicans. CA, OR, WA, and HI are leading the way. Never Republican. The west coast is the heart and soul of the Democratic Party.
