That’s right. Not once, but twice! He got my vote two times, and my wife’s vote two times!
Did he get your vote two times?
And no, I’m not admitting to election fraud. He is running in two senatorial elections in today’s California primary.
It’s a bit confusing, but Padilla is running to fill out the remaining term of VP Kamala Harris’s senate seat, and is also running for a full 6-year term in his own right.
So, Californians: Did you vote twice for Senator Padilla?
Those of you who have yet to vote, or to turn in your ballots, do be sure to vote for Padilla (twice!)
