Notable Quote of the Day ([link removed])

“There were certain kinds of common wisdom going into California — there’s lots of Latinos, and Kamala Harris or [Los Angeles Mayor] Eric Garcetti might have a base here. Those kinds of thoughts were really prevalent, and they’ve all been really put on the back burner right now, with more of the tried, true, traditional Iowa, New Hampshire. The current narrative around the presidential race has almost forgotten that there’s a big California contest.”

– Paul Mitchell, Political Data Inc.
