1. El rechazo sistémico a los candidatos multimillonarios.
Una corriente predominante entre los votantes de California es la profunda sospecha hacia figuras como Tom Steyer, cuya inmensa riqueza es vista como un obstáculo insalvable para representar los intereses de la clase trabajadora.
- Dont trust any billionaire even if they call themselves a Democrat. Tom Steyer can go back to his mansions and count to a billion on the reasons why California doesnt need him as governor.
- I dont trust Steyer. Why is a billionaire running for governor? Didnt we learn anything with the orange monster?
- You cant trust billionaires. This could just be blustering to try to win the election in California for governor.
- I dont trust billionaires and we simply cannot have a fascist governor in California for four years in this climate.
2. Xavier Becerra y la valoración de la experiencia pública.
Frente a la desconfianza que generan los empresarios, muchos ciudadanos expresan su apoyo a Xavier Becerra, destacando su trayectoria en el servicio público y su conocimiento de la complejidad administrativa del estado.
- Becerra - we need someone who puts the working class first. Especially in CA which has become an increasingly unaffordable yet is the wealthiest state in the country.
- Trust Xavier Becerra with decades of a proven track record, protecting a progressive California. Hes been there. Hell be there!
- I trust Becerra far more that Steyer, you seem to forget that Trump is our biggest problem.
- Xavier Becerra is the most qualified and the most formidable!! He makes me smile - we need him!
3. La erosión de la confianza tras el escándalo de Eric Swalwell.
Las acusaciones de conducta inapropiada y la falta de compromiso legislativo han provocado una caída estrepitosa en la credibilidad de Eric Swalwell, dejando a sus antiguos seguidores en un estado de decepción y búsqueda de nuevas alternativas.
- Eric Swalwell has rightfully lost that trust and his actions in response to the revelations levied against him certainly to nothing to inspire benefit of any doubt.
- I dont trust Swalwell. He barely ever voted and has one of worst congressional records look it up. Hes an opportunist who may be a creeper.
- Broken hearted and angry that a man I believed in, voted for multiple times and supported as our next governor is over and out in disgrace.
4. Katie Porter y la demanda de independencia corporativa.
Katie Porter es percibida como una defensora de las familias frente a los intereses corporativos, aunque su viabilidad electoral y su estilo de liderazgo generan debates divididos entre los votantes progresistas.
- California, this election is about who you can trust to fight for you. Im not a billionaire. I have never taken corporate money.
- I still back and endorse Porter for California governor. I do not trust billionaires with proper judgment.
- I like Katie Porter, even if she sometimes yells at her staff when they goof up. Steyer just gives me the ick.
5. Escepticismo ante el liderazgo de Gavin Newsom.
A pesar de su posición actual, Newsom enfrenta críticas severas de sectores que lo ven como un político elitista y poco confiable, cuestionando su verdadera lealtad a los valores progresistas.
- Gavin Newsom is the epitome of a wolf in sheeps clothing. Hes a neo-lib who pretends hes a progressive. No one should trust him.
- I dont trust Newsom for presidency. Ive wanted an AOC presidential run for years. Maybe it is the way.
- Newsome stands for nothing. Hell say or do whatever he thinks helps him get power, and throw anyone under the bus who might be in the way.
6. El dilema ético de las inversiones y el pasado financiero.
La confianza de los votantes se ve afectada por el historial de inversiones de los candidatos, especialmente en sectores polémicos como las prisiones privadas y los combustibles fósiles.
- Steyer. The investment firm he founded funded private prisons. He realized it was wrong sold his firm as a moral decision. Yet he continued to invest in that same firm for 6 more years. Why? Greed.
- California does not need a fossil fuels hedge fund manager as governor. You dont get to make billions for yourself on oil and coal and wake one day and say you are climate hawk.
- I dont trust Steyer at all. You should know better than to invest in private prisons whether it was 20 years ago or not.
