SACRAMENTO — The ongoing family feud among California Democrats just got worse.
The election of longtime party insider Eric Bauman as the new chair of the California Democratic Party has inflamed painful feelings among progressives that the party isn’t listening to its grassroots members.
Supporters of the runner-up, Richmond resident Kimberly Ellis, wanted a recount Sunday, but party rules don’t provide for a recount. Bauman won by a mere 62 votes — 1,493 to 1,431.
And he’s got a problem on his hands: This party is divided,” said Carlos Marroquin, a Los Angeles resident who organized young voters in several states as part of the Bernie Sanders Brigade. “And if they’re thinking about (midterm elections in) 2018, forget it. Because they’re not going to win if they’re divided.”
