I don't quite understand it, but doesn't this create a problem for picking judges or something like that?

I think it depends on how quickly Newsom names a replacement. I’lll cede to others on this.

Possibly, but honestly it’s impossible to predict the current Republicans.


Newsom has a bigger problem: he made two promises and can likely only keep one of them.  Either a black woman or someone not running to replace her permanently.
