xavier becerra california governor runoff: Guy who lost his own cabinet position now wants to lose the state, AITA for laughing?
TL;DR: Attorney General Xavier Becerra, fresh off failing to stop a housing crisis with the judicial equivalent of a sternly worded letter, has thrown his hat in the ring for CA governor. Newsom’s vacating the seat faster than a tech bro fleeing Prop 13 reform. So now we have a runoff where the choice is basically “vague centrist who vibes with more taxes” vs. “slightly more aggressive centrist who vibes with more taxes.” I guess we’re all just here to watch the state burn in slow motion. Yay, democracy.
