What would have happened if de Leon received the CA Democratic Party's endorsement? Delegates for Pat Harris and no endorsement prevented de Leon from reaching the 60% needed.

He would've made a heavily Feinstein-favored election into a very competitive one. I think he could have pulled it off. 2018 is a year of change, after all

Would de Leon have received the endorsement if Pat Harris didn't run for the endorsement?

Idk, do you know where I could see a result of the actual endorsement vote? I look it up and all I get are stories about how Feinstein wasn't re-endorsed.

This article says neither candidate reached 60%.

Picture of the result. Pat Harris was likely a spoiler.

Even if every Pat Harris supporter voted for De León, he still wouldn't get 60%. And that's assuming that they'd all vote for De León if Pat Harris hadn't ran.

1508+149=1657, 1657÷2775≈0.597. Would this be rounded up to be 60% or not?

It wouldn't make a difference. Feinstein has a lot of money to spend campaigning if she has to.

1657÷2775≈0.60. Votes for Pat Harris likely would have gone to de Leon. Pat Harris is to the left of Feinstein.

This result only helps Alison Hartson.

Hartson is wasting her time. She's basically just some women who doesn't have the fundraising numbers to out an incumbent statewide and can only increase chances of a D vs R runoff.

Exactly. Every Poll with Hartson shows Kalemkarian advancing. Randy Bryce in WI-01 raised far more than Hartson.

de Leon already has no chance. Hartson has a 0% chance of advancing.
