Got any questions? Any races you want to make sure we touch on?

Governor Newsom has a bill on his desk to hold utilities accountable, and get them to stop passing along their dark money campaigns to everyday Californians.

Is he going to side with utilities, or side with the public and help lower electricity rates?

So much horrific news. But also yesterday, the oaks were leafing out and the grass was maximum green. The Bay Area dresses up in drag as Ireland this time every year, and happy St. Patrick's to all you anticolonialists and arborists.
