The trackers also monitored whether the visitors said they were transgender or possible victims of domestic abuse. »

72% of Californians believe a third political party is needed (PPIC). The two-party system, and our polarized national politics, means the Democrats have no real competition in the state, from the left, right or center. That's bad for democracy, and bad for California.
