California poll: Trump’s numbers dropping into ‘uncharted territory’

Donald Trump is careening toward a historically poor showing in California, a prospect that has left several GOP congressmen fearful for their seats and Democrats hopeful they can regain a supermajority in the Legislature.

According to a new poll from the Public Policy Institute of California, in just one month Democrat Hillary Clinton’s lead over Trump has soared from 16 to 26 points as the brash billionaire’s campaign has imploded amid allegations that he’s a serial groper. He now has the support of only 28 percent of likely California voters, the poll found.

The contest for retiring U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer’s seat is also unlikely to deliver much drama on election night, the poll found. California Attorney General Kamala Harris leads Loretta Sanchez, an Orange County congresswoman, by 22 points.

I'd like to meet her myself, if possible.

By the way, my conservative next door neighbor does NOT have a Trump sign in his front yard, even after I planted my Hillary sign. Historically I joke that we have "duelling yard signs," but not this year.

With no Rethugs running for Senate, dismal GOP turnout is going to be a disaster for the Rethugs.

Do they not know who our last governor that we re elected in landslide victories was?
