Two Republicans—Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco—are leading the crowded California governor primary, narrowly edging out Democrats due to widespread voter apathy. With only about 17–16% support each and over a quarter of voters undecided, experts warn the split Democratic field could produce a historic GOP runoff under California’s top-two system. A push is underway to raise Alameda County’s minimum wage to $30 an hour, led by labor advocates who argue current wages

Philip Teresi ·

2026/03/20

Karl Rove’s Opinion piece at The Wall Street Journal argues that President Trump has not lost his base over the Iran conflict, saying most Republican voters still back his use of force and view it as consistent with his long‑standing “peace through strength” message. The column contends that critics overestimate GOP backlash, noting Trump’s voters are more concerned with projecting power abroad than avoiding limited military action.
