California Gubernatorial Primary Four Months Away

The California June statewide primary election is exactly four months away from today. Last week it was reported that while Democratic challengers Steve Westly and Phil Angelides have at least $40 million between them, the incumbent California Governor has less than zero dollars in the bank! However, the Alliance for a Better California's Julie Rosen has the latest poll numbers which has Schwarzenegger in a dead heat with both Westly (behind 39%-40%) and Angelides (ahead 41%-39%).

MadProfessah has met Steve Westly and been contacted by his staff with information about the candidate's positions on LGBT issues. However, Phil Angelides (or his staff) has not been as pro-active. Both campaigns sent holidays cards to the MadProfessah household. Angelides received the endorsement of the California Teachers Association last week. MadProfessah hopes to have an endorsement announcement approximately 4-6 weeks before the June 6 primary election. It appears to be a hard decision. Which candidate can do a better job of defeating Schwarzenegger in the general election on November 7? The hope is that person will be the winner of the primary election, but you never know, it doesn't usually work that way on the Republican side!
