@tedlieu Having two Dems at the top of the ticket would have meant a depressed Republican electorate, meaning it would have made Dems chances at House control better.
@BeshearStan We haven't had much polling of Bass vs Raman, but I imagine it won't be anywhere near what Cuomo faced. Remember that Cuomo was viewed unfavorably by a majority of Democrats. I find it hard to believe Bass is viewed unfavorably by Dems like he was.
