nearly four months, it does provide
a snapshot of the moment and
captures voters’ increasing frustrations
with divisive politics. It remains to
be seen if the NPP voter will be a
reflection of the moderate that feels
abandoned by party platforms, and
if so, whether they turn out to polls to
cast their lot.
What is crystal clear is that the
Central Valley will play a significant
role in the outcome of the November
general election and could play a
pivotal role in deciding which party
controls the House of Representatives
next year. As always with mid-term
elections, voter turnout will play a
pivotal role. California conservatives
are counting on the potential repeal
of the controversial gas tax on the
ballot to help with voter engagement.
One thing is certain, all eyes will be
watching the clock and poll returns
come November to see what course
lies ahead for California and U.S.
Where do you stand on the election
and candidates
?
