Got an email from Allen, talked about how status quo Democrats won again. Nothing about supporting Cox or any other Republicans running for other offices. Kinda bummed me. I also voted for Allen, and not very enthused about Cox, but I am glad we have a Republican in the top two, and the enemy now is Newsom.

I can't imagine that Allen's supporters will vote for Newsom now that Allen's out. That said, it'd definitely benefit us all if he openly endorsed Cox now...

Allen supporters will vote Cox, the one thing that surprised me was the low turnout for Villargosa. I thought he would get a ton of votes in Socal, especially with the massive amount of money he spent. So now the question is will the Democrats who didn't vote Villargosa/Newsome show up for the midterms or not...

Same here... I really wish Allen would have made it through to the general election but it was a long shot from the get-go.

I voted for Allen and will vote for Cox. Can't even consider the alternative. Cox got it right on the night of the primaries.. Trump is not to blame for CA's problems (high Taxes, Poverty, homelessness, etc.) It is the Democrats.
This is the platform he needs to follow to have a better chance.

When it comes to Immigration, it is time to clearly define this topic. Immigration is not the problem as we are all immigrants. The problem is illegal immigrants! Those that come here and do not assimilate, want to change America to fit their beliefs, and take advantage of the systems at the expense of tax payers.

This kind of platform can pull many to his side. As even Democrats and Moderates are sick of the taxes and problems heaped on us that has CA in the worst shape it has ever been.

The biggest problems I see with any Republican will be turnout and campaign $$$. Democrats have tons of both while the traditional R funders don't like spending money in California and Republicans are outnumbered by probably 10-20%.



Democrats are the majority here. Why would they revolt against High Taxes, Illegal Immigration, Gun Control etc? They vote for it with a smile on their face.
Never Trump Troll, get a clue. He did not run on a flat tax. He ran on a 23% National Sales tax on top of the current income tax system. Plus Sales tax hurt the poor more then the rich.

Just the fact you troll for COX is enough to give people pause.

It is not about reason it is about fact. We have a Chicago Progressive running against a California Progressive. Anyone who claims different is lying or a fool. The only reason to vote for COX would be to stick it to Newsom. Except Cox has no chance of beating Newsom. DCCC only funded COX to get rid of Vianogosa

If John Cox were a Chicago liberal as you claim,he would not have gotten primary endorsements from Howard Jarvis taxpayer group, Newt Gingrich , President Trump and many other real conservatives.

Not sure what you expect to o accomplish by constantly harping against this good man !

Whether Cox gets my support, beyond a vote, is up to him/his campaign. I made multiple attempts to subscribe to updates from his campaign prior to the primary, all either failed (as in never received anything) or I stopped receiving emails shortly after subscription.

I voted for Allen and will vote for and support Cox. This ideological purism expressed by some here only loses elections to the radical left. That's self-destructive and just plain dumb.

Ya - then vote Newsom, or a write-in of you fancy … or don't vote at all and anything you do or don't do for Cox is a vote for Newsom

… and that'll be a good payback for you in your own little way

If ever there was a time in California where Conservative need to band together - the time is now. Because after it's all over and Cox is not our Governor … well … it will be what it will be.

No, not disgruntled. My point was that one of the reasons Allen was successful in gaining my support was because he had regular email updates, which also lead to monetary support. When one tries to subscribe to an email list, I don't consider that "sitting and waiting for correspondence", especially when one tries multiple times, without success. If Cox can't get his communications efforts together, he is going to make it harder to for people to support him. If he wants some donations, perhaps he should remind me once in a while so I don't forget.

I agree with that. Conservatives need to set the tone. Seems like alot of things I watch, hear, or read the conservative side is always defending against lib bs. Its like a fist fight. Libs are just bombing with wild blind flurries and the conservative side, while doing a good job bobbing and weaving needs to remember to side step and throw the heavy hook and make them feel it.

Now in regards to November; Proof of citizenship?

Because unlike Allen, Cox is a RINO. An establishment type person. At least where he is on certain issues. Whether it is him or Newsom, Cox is still someone who is a cause for concern for conservatives. Not only that, he supports measures such as Agenda 21 etc.

I can't help but feel that the previous election outcome is a setup manipulated by Soros and his cronies seeing how Newsom has said he preferred to face Cox in his ads. Makes it feel like a trap. I don't know. Just a gut feeling.

IMO, this is a lose lose situation when it comes to choices. However, Cox does seem less worse then Newsom and he may very well prove Allen supporters wrong about being a RINO should he get into office and prove himself later down the road.

I will vote for Cox but I am not expecting him to improve CA. Most of his talk seems like lipservice to me.

On a side note, thanks to the interview on him conducted by FPC's Craig Deluz regarding the 2nd Amendment, I am willing to give this guy a chance. There are still some confusion and unknowns about this guy pertaining to his views on immigration etc. You can watch the interview on #37 of my post.

Until he actually proves Allen supporters like me or conservatives in general wrong about his intentions to rid the anti-gun laws, etc I don't have high hopes for this guy. Nevertheless, his seemingly untrustworthy talk will not stop me from voting for him.

It's cool man … I get very passionate about politics sometimes and is why I really work hard to try and limit my posts on this subject.

Gavin Newsom is so wrong for ANY State Governor Seat … might as well just vote for David Hogg for CA Governor … no difference.

I am not sure if this holds true using common core math.
Sorta depends on turnout and how motivated those the Newsom disgusts are at turning out to vote.

Moderate dems may not like the ultra left Dem.. so who knows what will happen.

I voted for Allen but will vote for Cox.. there's really no other option.

If you can't see that Cox would be better than Newsom then you're just not thinking it through.

Sure, Cox is a RINO.. but even a moderate dem is better than the ultra-left Newsom..

We are screwed either way, but at least with Cox we will get some lube and if we're lucky a reach around.. lol

Newsom will be going in dry.. sad that this is the way it is.. but it is..

My gross is barely 6 figures.
My effective tax rate is around 12%

Tell me again how a 23% flat tax would be a benefit to anyone other than the top 5%, who are currently paying 90% of the taxes?

If all the cox and allen voters got together and voted cox in November, Newsome would still win by 2 to 1. We do not have the numbers.

Newsom isn't as popular as many think. He caters to one extreme part of the voters, even within his own party. Moderate and more traditional Dems may choose to sit it out, while some independents might lean towards Cox.

He doesn't give a rats *** about the middle class except as a source of revenue for his far left agenda.

So what are you trying to say, give up and don't vote at all? Yep, that makes sense.

Sure, Cox is a RINO.. but even a moderate dem is better than the ultra-left Newsom..

We are screwed either way, but at least with Cox we will get some lube and if we're lucky a reach around.. lol

Newsom will be going in dry.. sad that this is the way it is.. but it is..
Oh I've thought it through alright. He definitely is better. We all hope that. However, don't be surprised if the guy is secretly just as bad as newsom or becomes just as bad down the road. You never know...just saying.

He need all of Allen's vote and about 20% more. Look, I cannot stand Gavin Newsom, he's bad news to hunters and firearm owners, but the reality is it's his race to loose......sorry to say.

Default Groundhog Day?

we've been here before, people. there really is nothing to discuss.

Newsome=HRC, Cox=Trump, Allen=Cruz.

all the way down to conceding the victory to the Demonrat. and the obstinate refusal of the GOP loser to concede and back the GOP frontrunner. (for which I will never forgive Cruz).

Allen needs to get off the stick and endorse Cox.

and all you never Cox'rs need to energize yourselves and your circle to Vote for the GOP nominee.

we can do this.

Cox 2018. It Is As Simple As That.

Hope you’re right about Cox=Trump. The only reason I voted for Trump was because HRC was the alternative. I have been VERY pleasantly surprised by Trump as POTUS. Exactly why I will give my vote to Cox this go around.

For those saying Cox won't get enough votes to beat Newsom, it's the same story, Hillary couldn't muster enough voter turnout. California's Governor November election is suppose to be one of the lowest turnouts. Ask a Democrat friend or co-worker, I bet many won't even know who Newsom is. I don't think Newsom has excited his voting base and hopefully a good chunk doesn't have the motivation to waste their time voting for him come November.

I voted for Cox from the get go... I will support ANY republican who has a chance to beat the dems for ANY political office!!! Politics is always a function of compromise. Gun owners haven't been able to get over the fact that for the 70% of the country the 2nd amendment is not the top priority in life. So instead of electing Republicans who may be weak in the 2nd Amendment but would never CREATE legislation against it... we have been splintering our votes in the name of purity of the cause and in the end handing over the keys of government TO THE PEOPLE WHO DO CREATE ANTI GUN LEGISLATION.

it is on the ballot it will be voted on in November. People don't like it.

This.

Though I supported Allen, in a way, this works out better for us in the same way that Trump vs Hillary was better than Cruz/Newt/Carson/Rubio

Cox stands to hold his supporters and pick up Allen's, as well as possibly Villar's and Chiang's.

Allen would likely have lost 20% of Cox's supporters to GN.

Cox may be a Rino, but a Rino is better than Newsom in the same way that Arnold was better than Davis.
Davis was recalled because of driver's licenses for illegals and the car tax. Arnold reversed those (however temporary). Yes, he signed the ban on the 50BMG, but for the most part he was a do-nothing (which is what we NEED in Sacramento).
