For those who don't recall, this primary is the first test of California's new "top two" system. Had anyone captured 50%+, this race would be over; Hahn and Huey now move to a July 12 runoff election to complete the term of Rep. Jane Harman, who retired in February to become the head of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
Obviously, this is a sad outcome for those of us who preferred Debra Bowen as a progressive champion worth sending to Congress. I wonder how Marcy Winograd and her supporters feel today about having Hahn and Huey battling for this seat.
