CA: Field: Brown up 54-33

Hopefully Tuck will win the superintendent's race. Cast my vote for him. I'm a union supporter, but the teacher tenure rules are outrageous.

I am thinking a 26-28 point win is likely. Maybe a little less because a lot of democrats just aren't going to bother turning out.

Realy? The poll only shows a 21 point win, and my guess is undecideds break for Kashkari.

Undecideds will probably break for the Democrat in statewide races in California, especially when the Republican is a loser like Kashkari.

Difficult to say. Even though Democrats will sweep statewide, motivation and turnout could be very low, which seems to be what's keeping the Republicans afloat in the competitive House and legislature districts.

Glorious news! Corrupto-man will be crushed by the Great Governor's moonbeam.

For once, I can completely and wholeheartedly agree with you.

Qualifications matter more than union gripes. That last thing we need is a superintendent trying to get into big fights with unions, that's just a lot of gridlock.

Someone needs to do something. That has been my biggest disappointment with Brown.

I live in senate district 38, and my Republican state senator, who is the ranking member of the education committee, always gripes about how Gov. Brown shrugs his shoulders and says how "the unions won't let that happen" whenever seemingly any legislation is proposed.

Both my dad and my grandpa were firefighters (public sector union employees), but even they acknowledge the unions here have too much power. The teachers unions should be fighting on behalf of both the teachers AND the students, not for stupid rules like tenure, which keeps poor teachers employed.
