6. My initial choice was Swalwell. Then Porter. Then Bacerra, as his numbers surged.

Like many here, I'm voting for the front-runner to ensure two republicans are kept off the ballot.

Speaking off needles, the Chronicle's telling interview with Bacerra, which ran weeks ago, didn't seem to move one either. As usual with voters, so much comes down to name recognition, perceived authenticity, and comfort (my opinion).

Still pole watching. I'll hand-deliver my ballot on election day if necessary.
