Feinstein Still Considering Run for Governor
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) said “she will base a decision on whether to run for California governor next year largely on the solutions the announced candidates put forward to deal with the state’s fiscal problems,” the AP reports.
Republicans have three candidates running for governor: Steve Poizner (R), Meg Whitman (R) and Tom Campbell (R).
Democrats have no announced candidate so far, though Attorney General Jerry Brown (D) has formed an exploratory committee.
Strategic Vision Vanishes
Nate Silver notes polling firm Strategic Vision has been very quiet since the controversy broke about their methodology and accusations that they possibly faked results.
“Strategic Vision vehemently denied my interpretation of the evidence and made public threats to sue me. But no lawyer has contacted me, and in fact, Strategic Vision has not conducted any further public polling since that time.”
