Kristin Davis may have missed the mark in her quest to win 50,000 votes for
her protest gubernatorial campaign and establish the Anti-Prohibition Party, but she did get some good post-election news today.
Since it required a two - thirds vote of delegates to its state convention, the California Labor Federation's backing of de León was a self - conscious
protest against Feinstein's habitually centrist instincts, and a sign of a strong leftward breeze in Golden State politics (the CLF also endorsed
gubernatorial front - runner, Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, who has carved out a strong progressive profile in his latest
campaign).
