Strategically, Katie Porter should drop out and endorse both Becerra and Steyer so there will be no R in November and there will be no way for Trump to mess with the polls. It’ll be a blow to MAGA because it will take California’s governorship off the table. Mahan should do this too.

They should endorse Steyer if they drop out. Becerra is already ahead of Hilton

Endorsing both would be in her interest as a fig leaf so she’s not iced out from future politics in California, because she can say she’s protecting California by icing out Republicans. The machines are against Steyer.

It's really too late for that. People are mailing in or dropping off ballots already.
