Show Notes
Last-minute cancellation of California governors debate sparks controversy over lack of diversity. USC and ABC7 invited six candidates, all white, leading to widespread backlash. The selection was based on a formula by USC professor Christian Grose, which prioritized polling over fundraising. Legislative leaders and excluded campaigns called for broader inclusion. Polling showed the invitees leading, but excluded candidates were not far behind. More debates are planned next month with different criteria.
