1. Eric Swalwell is my favorite choice at this moment

The commercials are endless for Tom Steyer like he’s trying to buy the governorship to help himself. He says in the ads he wants to help Californians but these millionaires are so out of touch to the reality of average Californians.

Swalwell has experience and knows the legislative process and how to get things done. After Swartzeneggar, I am turned off by non politicians running for higher office. And I like Katie Porter but she has too much baggage that could be attacked by the Reich wing giving us a repuke governor.

And I’m a 4th generation Californian!
