November will be intense, but the lack of competitive primary races and high-profile ballot measures suggests Tuesday's primary will be low-key
Super Tuesday may not be so super — especially in California. But while there's an apparent lack of voter enthusiasm for this week's primary election — and plenty of commentary about that — there's still intrigue in local and state elections, not to mention some typical campaign mischief. Granted, gleaning the import of this primary may take nuanced tea-leaf reading on how the results will affect the November elections.
In a recent poll by the Public Policy Institute of California, fewer than 4 in 10 voters said they are “extremely” or “very” enthusiastic about voting for president. That combined number dropped further when it came to voting for Congress. But the poll suggests it's not so much voter ennui as enthusiasm delayed. '. . . 84 percent say that voting in 2024 is 'very important' ,' the pollsters wrote. For what it's worth, California is not alone.
