Editor,
California has been dominated by the blue party for decades and has been in steady decline for some time now. Just pick a benchmark: crime, taxes, homelessness, cost of living, budget overruns, education scores, company and productive employee exodus. Do we always have to blindly keep voting in the same regular blue politicians and their same failing progressive blue policies?
Can’t we find some fresh new faces from the other side? Please consider at least this one race. A non-politician retired from a successful career and with no ambitions for higher offices, Steve Garvey, is running to serve the country as a California senator. He is running against three career Democrat politicians. The current leader of the group is a member of the House who has lied to the country so often he was sanctioned by the House membership.
Electing Garvey, an outsider with no agenda other than serving and reversing the destructive progressive policies besetting the country and especially California, would be a great way to beat the California blues.

Well summarized, Mr. Dickson. I’d say electing any Republican would be a great way to beat the California blues. Folks need to remember that they get the government they deserve. Vote wisely if you don’t want to remain blue (as in sad, if it’s too early in the morning for some). Mr. Garvey already has my, and my family’s vote, assuming my vote isn’t lost in the mail.
Oh sure Ron. Let's vote for a former first baseman for the LA Dodgers. That certainly qualifies him over the three Democrats who have experience in politics. Did you see the recent debate? Garvey couldn't articulate his own policies and looked totally incompetent. He would just be another right wing nut job and has no business being our representative!
Yes Rel - their experience has really helped us hasn't it? Just like Biden now responsible for an untold number of rapes and murders by illegal migrants that he let into our once safe country. I'll take the lack of experience any day over the ones that will continue the mayhem.
Yes, Dirk, you and your other righties keep peddling the illegal alien narrative right through this November's election as you all lose another election for stoking fear and loathing for a straw men. During Trump's reign, the CBO put out a study that immigrants are overwhelmingly turning a profit for our country and are more peaceful and law abiding than the population as a whole. The ones who should be prosecuted are the companies who hire cheap labor but Congress won't touch that.
Isn't it interesting that political ads for the pencil neck and the other Democrat contenders warn us not to vote for Garvey? Because he is too conservative and, God forbid, he would vote for Trump's agenda? I think these Democrat PAC are inadvertently pushing Garvey. We also have voted for him. Imagine the habitual liar and flip flop Porter becoming senators? How about Miss Do-good who want to raise the minimum wage to $50 per hour? None of these Democrat contenders address issues that we citizens are concerned about: inflation, endless illegal immigration, crime, gasoline and grocery prices. All we get from them is false promises and grandstanding, all learned from the pinnacle of oblivion, Newsom.
"Shiffey-Schiff" has yet to show us the evidence he assured us many times he had of Trump's Russian collusion.
Because there is no evidence at all because it never happened. The entire narrative was made up by Hillary and Pencil neck liar Adam Schiff , along with the liberal tabloids tan with it. Of course, it was funded by George Soros.
