Why do California Democrats Hate Voters So Much?
Democrat lawmakers are openly and actively working against California voters and legal residents

One party rule in California has all the power to pass any law and measure its wants, across the entire state.
The fundamentals in California are corrupted – not insurmountable, but corrupted.
Democrats hate voters, hate the people, and no longer work for them. Why do California’s Democrat lawmakers hate the people who live in the state, pay the exorbitant taxes and lawmakers’ salaries?
Earlier this week, the Globe reported California’s Democrat Lawmakers Must Want Crime, Drugs and Homelessness to Increase – because Democrats are pushing a bill that creates a pretrial diversion program for retail theft (rather than prosecution), for shoplifting, forgery, and vandalism, allowing the offender’s record to be wiped clean after completion, undermining Proposition 36.
California voters overwhelmingly approved Prop 36 in 2024 to restore felony penalties for repeat theft and drug crimes. Prop 36 passed by 68%, and notably, passed in every one of California’s 58 counties.
That’s a mandate.
Almost immediately Democrats started scheming on how to undermine voters’ wishes for restoration of law and order.
It is notable that Latin mottos are centrally displayed in both chambers of the California Legislature reminding lawmakers of their purpose:
In the Assembly: LEGISLATORUM JUSTAS LEGES CONDERE, which translates to “It is the duty of legislators to make just laws;”
and
In the Senate: EST CIVITATIS LIBERTATEM TUERI, meaning “It is the duty of a Senator to guard the liberty of the Commonwealth.”
Is it too much to want to live without crime and violence in our cities?
Is it too much to expect that the duty of elected legislators is to make just laws and guard the liberty of the Commonwealth?
Prop 36 restored felony penalties for repeat offenders after a decade of disaster and rising crime under Prop 47. Fed-up voters demanded accountability for smash-and-grab thefts, organized retail crime, and open drug dealing.
Democrats’ criminal justice reform experiment failed.
The state’s residents were fed up with the dangerous, unstable and unpredictable volatile conditions in residential neighborhoods, shopping areas, parks, city streets, county streets, and downtowns.
It has become very clear that the Democrat supermajority in the California Legislature care more about themselves and their wicked funders than the people of California, since with passage of AB 2108, they would increase crime, drugs, and homelessness back to pre-Prop 36 levels, we noted.
Voters made their priorities clear with passage of Prop 36 – especially as Democrats’ newest scheme with AB 2108 is reminiscent of Prop 47 all over again, which voters thought they were overturning with passage of Prop 36. As the Globe has reported for years, Proposition 47, was passed by tragically but deliberately misinformed voters in 2014, and deceptively titled “The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act” by then-Attorney General Kamala Harris, which reduced a host of serious felonies to misdemeanors, including drug crimes, date rape, and all thefts under $950, even for repeat offenders who steal under $950 every day.
Prop. 47 also decriminalized drug possession from a felony to a misdemeanor, removed law enforcement’s ability to make an arrest in most circumstances, as well as removing judges’ ability to order drug rehabilitation programs rather than incarceration.
Voters merely wanted to make crime illegal again in California.
When Prop 36 qualified for the November 2024 ballot, Democrats and Gov. Newsom tried to deprive Californians of the opportunity to make crime illegal again. Newsom tried to hijack the initiative with a “poison pill” that would have repealed other public safety laws as punishment for passing it.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is one of the corrupt elitists, part of the ruthless, sadistic ruling class, beholden to the UN, EU, WEF, WHO and China. He doesn’t govern California for the people; he is helping to destroy it.
In June 2024, the California Supreme Court announced it removed the Taxpayer Protection Act from the ballot at Gov. Newsom’s request. This Proposition would have subjected any tax increase to a vote of the people. The California Supreme Court is as corrupt as the Democrat governors who appointed them – Jerry Brown and Gavin Newsom.
It has become “Us vs. California State government.”
If doubt remains, last week California Attorney General Rob Bonta was credibly accused of rigging the ballot language for Proposition 39, the Voter Identification, Citizenship Verification, and Registered Voter List Administration Initiative, just months before the November 2026 election, the Globe reported.
“The initiative, which gathered over a million signatures from Democrats, Republicans, and Independents after more than a year of petition circulation under previously approved wording, now faces what opponents call a last-minute rewrite designed to tilt public perception against it.”
California Democrats are attempting to sabotage the wildly popular Voter ID ballot initiative.
That’s how much they hate you, and how much they love their corrupt funders.
California’s Democrat politicians – everyone from the governor down to the most ardent leftists on local city councils and school boards – have abdicated their governing responsibilities to state and local agencies and nondescript boards and commissions, leaving politicians free to pass dangerous and unconstitutional legislation, which only serves to destroy what is left of the California experiment, once known lovingly as the California Dream.
Dante’s Nine Circles of Hell describe California’s descent into perdition: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath, Heresy, Violence, Fraud, Treachery.
Here’s how much they hate us:
Democrats are backing the billionaire tax, which is already chasing big employers out of state.
Democrats have propagated homelessness – it’s a funding scheme. After billions of taxpayer dollars have been thrown at dubious non-profits and NGOs, the homeless drug addict crisis has only grown.
Democrats are attempting to sabotage the voter ID ballot initiative.
Democrats allow and promote boys in girls bathrooms – California’s Mixed-Sex Bathroom Law Kicks In Just Before School Starts.
Democrats have created and now promote the disastrous public schools, and they hate your kids. Here is proof:
- California’s Failing Schools: Everyone Gets a Trophy and 4.5 GPA
- California Bill Authorizes Public Schools to Celebrate Muslim Holy Days in Curriculum.
- Elevating ‘Black English’ to a Language in Schools Comes with Linguistic and Cultural Problems
- Newsom and California Democrats Scheme To Defang State Schools Chief, Anticipating Republican Win
- Sex and Porn in California Schools: One Million Sexually Explicit Books in School Libraries and English Lit Classes
Democrats hate legal citizens – especially Xavier Becerra, their nominee for California Governor: Cal Chamber Endorsed Candidate Xavier Becerra Prioritizes Illegal Street Vendors over Legal Businesses.
Democrats fail at running government so they create fake crises and Climate lies: No Climate Crisis in California: Climate Change is Not Causing California’s Wildfires.
