Statement of California Democratic Party Chairman John Burton on California Republicans’ Gubernatorial Choice in 2014 Primary Election


Congratulations are in order for California’s Republican primary voters. During last week’s primary election they were faced with a very difficult choice: a Tea Party fanatic who attempted to carry a loaded gun on a plane or an individual whose single greatest accomplishment has been to hand over billions in taxpayers’ money to Goldman Sachs and the rest of Wall Street. It truly was a tough choice, but they made it, and I assume they feel more comfortable with someone who gives away taxes from hard working American men and women to the Republicans’ Wall Street buddies.

The California Democratic Party is ready, willing and able to take on the Republican choice with our Governor Jerry Brown, and we look forward to another resounding statewide Democratic sweep, as well as the strong enthusiasm and dedication of thousands of Democratic activists and allies throughout the state from now through November.
