I had lunch with Tom Steyer today. Ask me anything.

13. I will probably vote for Steyer this weekend.

In the beginning I was worried about two Republicans being on top meaning it was a bad idea to vote for a Democrat below the top 6 candidates. Now that Bianco is down considerably. I feel safe picking Steyer or Becerra but will still avoid down ticket as I see it as an independent vote in consequences. Steyer is the better liberal candidate and probably the only realistic one that cares about Climate Change issues. Like you I am also turned off by Becerra on MFA and Oil interests. Lucky you getting to meet Steyer. I would not pass up an opportunity like that. Overall I don't like the open primary. Normally I would vote for my favorite candidate despite odds of them winning. If the Democrat vote is too split up the top two could be R in an open primary. I therefore I was forced to abandon my favorite and only vote strategically although Steyer is a really good choice on a lot of issues.
