      First, many races are non-partisan primaries — the top two vote getters square off. And usually these are moderate Dem vs. a progressive. The Republicans that run usually wind up being cranks. They generally won’t dial down the culture war stuff enough to win over votes on a “good government” argument. And the ones that do like Kevin Faulconer, aren’t very popular with state-wide Republicans.
