I wonder what it could be . . .
Gov. Gavin Newsom said he has a secret ābreak the glassā plan to prevent California from electing a Republican governor ā though heās stubbornly refused to make an endorsement in the race to succeed him.
The governor revealed the secret contingency plan to prevent two Republicans from advancing in the governor election ā as polls show Trump-endorsed Steve Hilton near the top of the field in the packed race.
Newsom alluded to āaction effortsā behind the scenes to make sure Democrats arenāt locked out of the governorās race, saying he āmaking my caseā to āencourage that doesnāt happen.ā
Recent surveys show Democratic frontrunner Xavier Becerra and Hilton as favorites among registered voters, with billionaire Tom Steyer, Republican Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco and Democrat Katie Porter trailing a few points behind.
My guess is that the plan involves him somehow persuading all but one Democrat to drop out just before the "Jungle Primary" vote. I don't know how he would do that, except maybe to promise them a cabinet spot after he wins the presidency in 2028. The second through last place Democrats may go for that, unlikely as the payoff seems.
