This is a reminder that the federal healthcare subsidy “cuts” that took place last year were as a result an expiring temporary boost during the COVID epidemic. They were extended once, but never were they permanent or intended to be forever. The “entitlement culture” is amazing, folks. We have a nearly $40 trillion national debt. Real spending cuts do need to happen, and get ready for more whining.

CNN’s @Elex_Michaelson hosted me tonight and asked if California’s counting system is a laughing stock. Of course it is!

[Joel Pollak @joelpollak]

California voters in ALL major cities are rejecting new taxes, at least in early primary results.

- SF's "overpaid CEO tax" is losing 45%-55%
- LA County's 0.5% sales tax hike is losing 47%-53%
- SD's second-home tax is losing 42%-58%

November's "billionaire tax" is in trouble.

Of course there’s a little bit of the moving target effect here. As what they don’t know is how many more balance will be received in the coming days.

[Rob Pyers @rpyers]

JUST IN: Los Angeles County has processed ~1.4 million ballots and estimates it has around 713,180 ballots left to count.

Thank you, Stacy!

[Stacy A. Korsgaden @SKorsgaden]

I wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to each of you who voted, donated and endorsed my campaign for Insurance Commissioner. The votes are still coming in and this race is not over. Look out for an update on Friday. 

What I do know today… I traveled the state and met with so many of you who are affected by the dysfunction in our insurance market. This campaign earned the support of hundreds of thousands of Republicans, Democrats and Independent voters across California who know we need real solutions to the insurance crisis, not politics as usual. 

You know I’m not a politician. But I have nearly 40 years of experience in the insurance navigating the insurance marketplace, and I know exactly what to do to restore balance in a way that will attract new insurers so they have to compete for your business and reduce the insurable risk in CA. 

The coalition we have built is still growing. And I invite you to join Team Stacy until the race is called.

@mason_herron Always appreciate your post-election breakdowns. TY!

[Ron Nehring @RonNehring]

Unreported: she could have avoided a runoff if she hit 50%. But 65% of Angelenos voted “no” on Bass.

Incredibly weak support for an incumbent.

@Elex_Michaelson I would never call the author of prop 14 a conservative. lol. Elisha counts.

[Jon Fleischman @FlashReport]

No conservative. Sigh.

California’s first returns show major races taking shape, but millions of ballots remain to be counted.

Our incumbent Republican Orange County Clerk-Recorder, High Nguyen, was overwhelmingly re-elected tonight by Orange County voters. He has earned every vote and tonight was an exclamation mark on a job well-served!

[Marc Joffe @marcjoffe]

Glad to see the Measure ER sales tax trailing in LA, but it's still early.

Back from Hilton HQ and what a night! California is not giving up yet!

[Marc Joffe @marcjoffe]

Pleased to report that the Contra Costa Measure B sales tax appears to have been defeated.

As of 12:46am, No had an 18 point lead and the election office has closed for the night.
