Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

We cannot assume a Democrat will make it to the general election for governor. Because of our Jungle Primary system, the top two candidates — regardless of party — move on. That means it is entirely possible for TWO Republicans to end up on the general election ballot if Democrats are split.
