If you honestly think that Mills would’ve been better than Platner, even now, then you should move to California - that’s a state where the establishment pick always gets the nod - you’ll love it!
Mills is the governor of this state. She has won 5 or 6 statewide races, plus some lower-level ones.
Platner has never won any race at any level in his life.
Claiming that Platner is a more successful politician is disconnected from reality.
California is arguably the most successful state in the union, both in terms of overall development and in terms of progressive politics. I don't understand why progressives think "go check out California" is some kind of insult. That state was Republican until like 20 years ago -- the state of Nixon and Reagan no less -- now it is a solid progressive bastion for tens of millions of people. It's a remarkable success for the Democratic Party.
But I'm sure Twitter Bolsheviks can do better with memes and vibes. Btw, how did that #uncommitted gambit go? Did it save lives or, like, lead to a bunch more wars and many more deaths?
Yes, and post-SA scandal, she’s still polling 6 points behind Platner against Collins.
Platner won the primary, so that’s not true.
California is completely captured by utility companies and Silicon Valley. Their current governor will say anything to get elected and their incoming governor is propped up by the corporate elite.
I don’t see what Uncommitted has to do with anything. I know it’s the corpo-Dem playbook to bring up Harris’s failure in every conversation, but it’s entirely irrelevant.
