Beware!, II

It has come to my attention that California voters will have Proposition 14 before them on the ballot.

If approved by voters, the proposal will require that candidates run in a single primary open to all registered voters, with the top two vote-getters meeting in a runoff. The new system would take effect in the 2012 elections.^[1]

Specifically, it would provide for a "voter-nominated primary election" for each state elective office and congressional office in California. Voters could vote in the primary election for any candidate for a congressional or state elective office without regard to the political party affiliations of either the candidate or the voter. Candidates could choose whether or not to have their political party affiliation displayed on the ballot.

The proposition also prohibits political parties from nominating candidates in a primary, although political parties would be allowed to endorse, support or oppose candidates.

So, potentially, both candidates for an elective State office in November 2012 could be Republicans.  I predict that, if that is the case, the Demonrat Party of Commiefornia will sue because it's not fair.
