California Update: The Drama-Light Election
A monthly update on the state of the Golden State:- Why America’s biggest and maybe bluest state produced relatively little drama on Election Night (though a contentious mayoral race in Los Angeles remains unresolved)
- Voters sending mixed messages in their initiative choices (a billionaire wealth tax got skunked, an income tax on upper earners sailed to victory yet again)
- The likelihood of Gov.-elect Xavier Becerra deviating from Gavin Newsom on the likes of taxation, budgetary red ink, affordable housing, and a beleaguered high-speed rail.
- What does the future bode for Los Angeles and an undecided mayor’s race whose winner likewise won’t lack for challenges in America’s second-largest city (chronic homelessness, a dwindling entertainment industry, and gearing up for the 2028 Summer Olympics)?
