Datamar is in and shows Prop 85 tied. Can this be possible?Enough Angelides partisans call it a day on Tuesday and anything is possible.On the other hand, Datamar shows Prop 90 closing.Compare this to the slightly earlier Hoover results, perhaps proof in the pudding as to why we shouldn’t trust polling.

Schwarzenegger, Feinstein Still Enjoy Comfortable Leads Propositions 1A, 1B, 1E Ahead, 1C, 1D Behind Propositions 83, 84, 90 Ahead, 86, 87, 88, 89 Behind Proposition 85 Tied See the Datamar resultshere.… Read More

The Hoover Institute released a new poll yesterday on several state ballot issues (Prop. 85-90 only) and the major candidates the voters will consider in Tuesday’s election.

Here are excerpts from the Hoover news release on the poll.

"According to a survey conducted October 19-27 for the Hoover Institution by Polimetrix, Schwarzenegger leads his Democratic opponent, California State Treasurer Phil Angelides 50% to 40% with 10% undecided or supporting third party candidates.

"In most other races, Democratic candidates hold comfortable margins over their Republican opponents. U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein leads Republican State Senator Richard Mountjoy 57% to 39% in her bid for reelection. Insurance Commissioner John Garamendi leads State Senator Tom McClintock 51% to 45% in the race for Lieutenant Governor. Current… Read More

I got this letter today from a friend. It seems to be circulating around the Internet via e-mail. If you haven’t received this, send this link to your friends and family as a reminder of why we don’t want Jerry Brown occupying the Attorney General’s office. On Tuesday (or before, if they are absentee ballot voters), they need to vote for Sen. Chuck Poochigian. Here’s why:

Mr. Gregg Passama ("COPS") President California Organization of Police & Sheriffs 430 N. Vineyard #310 Ontario, California 91764

Mr. Passama,

I am a retired Los Angeles Policeman. I was a "cop" who worked,… Read More

Two weekends ago, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was all over network TV, talking about her plans if Democrats won the House. On Monday, tracking polls all over the country showed a spike in Republican performance. We haven’t seen her since.

Harry Reid, Senate Minority leader, gets caught in a shady land deal in Nevada. Haven’t seen him since.

Senator John Kerry, in perhaps one of the worst campaign gaffes of all time, denigrates the educational levels of our troops in Iraq (who have a higher percentage of college degrees than those not serving in the military). Today, his planned trips to Iowa, Minnesota and Philadelphia are all canceled at the request of the candidates he was planning to support.

We won’t see him again until after next Tuesday.

Yes, the new strategy for the Democrats – hide!

Lest any conservative become smug about the situation, keep this in mind – these buffoons are competitive with our side. It’s time to ask ourselveswhy.… Read More

Aside from having a Republican Governor the Republican Party in CA has had to appreciate the little victories the last several election cycles.

It seems however that is about to change. Several of our statewide candidates are poised for victory.

But there is another reason for the GOP to have hope. In Orange County the 34th State Senate Distinct is the only legislative district that is really in play this year. And while Central Orange County has been a stronghold for the Democrats that should change on Tuesday.

It is an open secret that polling shows Republican State Assemblywoman Lynn Daucher leading over Democrat County Supervisor Lou Correa. If Daucher pulls out a win here, it will be a victory for Senate Republican Leader Dick Ackerman more than anyone else. He is the one who has put all the pieces together, raised the necessary dollars and masterminded this outcome.

Local GOP Chairman Scott Baugh will deserve some credit too for overseeing the successful volunteer-led registration drive that has brought registration in the district to near even.

The Democrats are so scared of what Ackerman has put together in this race that… Read More

Rumors are spilling out of the Capitol that Assemblyman Mike Villines is mounting a challenge to Assembly Republican Leader George Plescia.

While perhaps not the best source for internal Republican matters, the CA Majority Report had this story earlier this morning.

I am profoundly disappointed at the announcement made today by Arnold Schwarzenegger that he is opposed to Proposition 90, the Save Our Homes Initiative. All of those I know who have been supporting and working hard on the Governor’s reelection are strongly supporting 90. I’m sure they will all be equally dismayed. Some things just make you go, “Huh?”

That’s all I will say for now… As someone said (my mom?), if you don’t have something nice to say…… Read More
