USC was set to hold a debate for California’s gubernatorial candidates. There was no problem with this, so a disgruntled candidate made one up. Subsequently, the event was canceled less than 24 hours before the scheduled time because the candidates were too white for the left.

According to The Desert Sun:

Former U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, a Democratic candidate for governor, accused USC of using an “arbitrary formula that favors wealthy candidates” and said the criteria resulted in the exclusion of all candidates of color from the debate.

In other words, Becerra was beside himself, as he could not comprehend how he did not meet this “viability” score.

Maybe, just maybe, the reason he did not qualify for the debate had nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with the fact that he is polling at 3%.

USC said it stood by the independence of the data-driven formula used to determine candidate “viability,” but acknowledged the controversy had become a distraction from issues voters care about.

“We recognize that concerns about the selection criteria for tomorrow’s gubernatorial debate have created a significant distraction from the issues that matter to voters,” the university said, adding that it would “look for other opportunities to educate voters on the candidates and issues”.

Polling data shows “Republican Steve Hilton leading overall with 16%, followed by Republican Chad Bianco at 14%. Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell, former Congresswoman Katie Porter, and billionaire and climate activist Tom Steyer were basically in a dead heat at 10%.”

The remaining candidates are polling at either 3% or 1%. Common sense would tell you there is no point in having them at the debate, but sense is not so common among the left. Becerra can cry all he wants because he got disqualified from the debate, but the truth hurts, and the people don’t care to hear his stance on the issues. Rather than respectfully admit defeat, he would rather slander organizers as racist because that is what the left does when they have nothing else to defend themselves with.

Only one person was making this about skin color, and it was Becerra himself. Ironic, isn't it?
