Los Angeles, CA…A new polling memo from Emerson College Polling/Inside California Politics finds Congressman Swalwell is the frontrunner heading into the June 2 primary. Swalwell’s message of driving down costs for working people and fighting Donald Trump continues to resonate with likely voters and increase his support.
Swalwell leads the entire field of gubernatorial candidates:
- Eric Swalwell: 17%
- Steve Hilton: 13%
- Chad Bianco: 11%
- Tom Steyer: 11%
- Katie Porter: 8%
- Xavier Becerra: 3%
- Antonio Villaraigosa: 3%

Swalwell’s support has increased since Emerson College’s February poll. Among registered Democratic voters, Swalwell’s support has increased from 23% to 27% since February.
Among voters who say the next governor should stand up to Trump, 25% support Swalwell, ten points higher than the next candidate.
“With less than 55 days until voters begin casting ballots, Congressman Swalwell is in the best position to make the Top Two in the June 2 primary,” said Micah Beasley, a campaign spokesperson. “Swalwell’s message of tackling the cost-of-living crisis, while fighting President Trump’s overreach continues to grow his support and bring voters into his corner.”

That’s fantastic. He is the best. By a landslide
Bull Shit, Steve Hilton is, moron
Swalwell is a punk.
The logic thinking of a modern democratic is- You tell them I like pancakes. You must be a communist radical republican who hates to have waffles. A vegan one. And by the way I had a boy who is trans. And a teacher. He/she had a kid name Mike aka Michelle. Disgusting.
WTF are you rambling about you ignorant trump sheep?
Had a Longfellow lately?
My biggest question to the Tards? Why is this anti-American, commie spy lover the best we can do?
Yeah why did you vote him in as President then?
Every now and then, it’s worth reminding yourself that every single crisis of Trump 2.0 — the economic downturn, the chaos in our cities, the rising health crisis, the foreign wars — has been a direct result of their own actions.
If they’d done nothing at all, they’d be coasting comfortably.
DIE DONALD DIE
You would look better with the top of your skull blown off.
Mr Trump is doing a wonderful job God bless him and all his administration

So Trump has gotten us into a new war in the Middle East, for no clear reason, raising gas prices and therefore the price of everything else.
Can you trumpers admit that he lied to you? He’s broken every single promise he made to you.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth went off on CNN at a press conference and gloated that, “The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better!”
maga wants a Putin style press- only pro propaganda .
In Democracies a free press is the basic tenant.
Only with a free press can people make choices based on reporting of facts.
maga wants to lie to you, and always has , look at Fox they deceive, you believe.
We got where we are today- the lying president, sec of defense, and treasury all because of the billionaires that have bought our press, media, and placed who they want even in the SCOTUS.
The founding fathers are turning in their graves seeing what is going on.
Traitor don said yesterday that “rising oil prices are good, as the US produces the most oil in the world, we’re making a lot of money”
What the dementia patient ignores is the American consumer is paying high prices for gas, diesel, and will not see any benefit from the higher prices, only the oil cos.
Some Senators are calling for the invocation of the 25th amendment removing this ill deranged child, who started a war, which will only escalate.
