Such seals of approval can come with infusions of campaign cash and help politicians raise their profiles as they seek votes across an enormous state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public endorsements can serve as a helpful signal to voters, giving a sense of the candidates’ alliances and priorities. But what many voters don’t realize is that the endorsements are more than a sign of affection. They are the result of private concurrence between groups that represent narrow interests and candidates competing to represent the public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica Levinson, a professor at Loyola Law School and president of the Los Angeles Ethics Commission, compared the secret questionnaires to private conversations with lobbyists, “or any closed-door meeting where you try to extract a promise from a lawmaker in exchange for x.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In its worst framing, it feels like extortion: ‘You say this, and therefore you get our [endorsement]. If you don’t say this, you don’t,’” Levinson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/rnJzP1YS6TM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CALmatters asked the six major candidates for governor — Democrats Gavin Newsom, Antonio Villaraigosa, John Chiang and Delaine Eastin, and Republicans John Cox and Travis Allen — to share the questionnaires they’ve completed in seeking endorsements for the June 5 primary election. None did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also asked several interest groups to share the candidates’ answers. They wouldn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both sides generally agree to keep the records confidential. Some organizations even emblazon their documents with the words “Do not copy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The style of the questionnaires varies, with some requesting thoughtful explorations of policy issues and others listing pages of yes/no questions. Some include a “pledge” section — for example, asking candidates to sign their names and promising to “actively and publicly support” workers organizing a union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In some cases, the result is private covenants on such questions as: Will you ban fracking? Limit the growth of charter schools? Support tougher punishments for repeat criminals? Maintain the pension system for government employees?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Getting the answers in writing helps interest groups get what they want after politicians are elected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we are lucky enough to endorse the candidate that wins the office, it’s a good place to point back to and a level of accountability for what they said when they were running,” said Jim Araby, executive director of the state’s United Food and Commercial Workers union, which endorsed Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Its members include grocery-store clerks confronting technological advances that threaten to wipe out jobs, as well as competition from online vendors that are not unionized.

Many of those at the convention were union members, and Villaraigosa was often at odds with teachers unions while he was mayor of L.A. During the convention's Labor Caucus meeting, Villaraigosa was loudly booed when he began to speak. Still, he tried to tout his labor credentials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was a steward, chief steward and president of a union at 25 years old,\" he said. \"I've been fighting for working people my entire life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has been endorsed by several large unions, including the California Teachers Association and SEIU.

Chiang's supporters filled the hallways and meeting rooms during the convention. During his speech, Chiang touted his financial background.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You deserve a governor with the experience to move a progressive vision forward,\" he said. \"Not just someone who talks a good game, but someone with the know-how to put our state in the fiscal position to actually get things done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a good weekend for Eastin, too, who pulled in 20 percent of the delegate vote despite garnering only 4 percent support in a recent poll. Still, Eastin and Chiang have a lot of work to do to catch Villaraigosa and Newsom, and they have only three months until the June primary.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gov. Gavin Newsom garnered the most support, with 39 percent of the votes. State Treasurer John Chiang came in second with 30 percent, followed by former State Superintendent of Public Instruction Delaine Eastin with 20 percent. Former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa came in a distant fourth with 9 percent of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a rough weekend for Villaraigosa, who \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2018/02/07/ppic-poll-newsom-villaraigosa-essentially-tied-in-governor-race/\">polls show\u003c/a> pulling closer to race front-runner Newsom. Many of those at the convention were union members, and Villaraigosa was often at odds with teachers unions while he was mayor of L.A. During the convention's Labor Caucus meeting, Villaraigosa was loudly booed when he began to speak. Still, he tried to tout his labor credentials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was a steward, chief steward and president of a union at 25 years old,\" he said. \"I've been fighting for working people my entire life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has been endorsed by several large unions, including the California Teachers Association and SEIU. He seemed to have much more traction with the crowd, drawing cheers and chants throughout the weekend -- though, with such a crowded field, it was unlikely Newsom would be able to secure the party's endorsement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Chiang's supporters filled the hallways and meeting rooms during the convention. During his speech, Chiang touted his financial background.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You deserve a governor with the experience to move a progressive vision forward,\" he said. \"Not just someone who talks a good game, but someone with the know-how to put our state in the fiscal position to actually get things done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a good weekend for Eastin, too, who pulled in 20 percent of the delegate vote despite garnering only 4 percent support in a recent poll. Still, Eastin and Chiang have a lot of work to do to catch Villaraigosa and Newsom, and they have only three months until the June primary.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
