  1. What a load of garbage!! Every election has criteria for candidates to meet, in order to be included in debates!! If they didn’t, there would be 50 on the stage.

    “SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The University of Southern California canceled a gubernatorial debate planned for Tuesday after candidates of color, who would have been excluded, accused the school of discrimination.

    Republicans Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco, and Democrats Tom Steyer, Katie Porter, Eric Swalwell and Matt Mahan, who are all white, were slated to participate in the debate hosted by the University of Southern California and KABC-TV. But four established Democratic candidates of color, Antonio Villaraigosa, Xavier Becerra, Betty Yee and Tony Thurmond, didn’t meet the criteria to participate.

    No clear front-runner has emerged in the crowded race ahead of the June 2 primary.

    The university has defended a formula used to select the participants and denied allegations of bias. A public policy professor independently developed the criteria based on candidates’ polling and fundraising, the university said in a statement Friday.”

    1. What’s wrong with a criteria based on polling and fundraising? Nothing but the DEI democrats want one based on skin color, ethnicity, and place of origin.

    2. KAM: This is great!

      DON: The Democrats are killing themselves instead of coalescing around one candidate and the two GOP candidates are leading and if this continues they will get the two spots for the fall election.
