California Gubernatorial Race Over?

 
The latest Los Angeles Times-USC poll found that showed Democrat Jerry Brown with a 52% to 39% lead over Republican Meg Whitman in the race to be Governor of California.  And, a majority of those questioned believed Whitman did not handle the controversy over her housekeeper’s immigration status well.

It was a very close race when the candidates debated at UC Davis just a few weeks ago.  In my book, the beginning of the end for the Whitman campaign was when Nicky Diaz went public and the voters — with Latino voters especially attentive — learned of Meg Whitman’s cold treatment of Diaz, who she characterized as a part of her “family.”
