"content": "\u003cp>No matter who voters in California's 7th State Senate District select in the special election on May 19, one thing's for sure: It will be a Democrat who cozied up to the political warmth that radiates off Gov. Jerry Brown these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race between Assemblywoman \u003ca href=\"http://susanbonilla.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Susan Bonilla\u003c/a> (D-Concord) and Orinda Mayor \u003ca href=\"http://www.glazerforsenate.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Steve Glazer\u003c/a> has more dramatic storylines than you can possibly keep track of: Democrats fighting each other; big money being spent by independent groups normally aligned with either labor unions (pro-Bonilla) or Republicans (pro-Glazer); the shifting strategies of campaigns under California's top-two primary rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And those are just the biggies. But in these closing weeks, the guy who seems to be the real political prize is the one who's tried hard to stay away from this Democrat vs. Democrat wrestling match: Gov. Jerry Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The easy, and therefore less spoken, connection is between Brown and Glazer. The two men have a relationship that dates back more than 30 years. \"Their enduring relationship is a testament both to Mr. Glazer's devotion to Mr. Brown and to Mr. Brown's penchant for trusting only a handful of close advisers,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/02/us/02sfpolitics.html?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">said the New York Times in a 2010 profile of Glazer\u003c/a> while he was helping run Brown's successful bid for a third term as governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Brown has kept an official distance from his longtime friend in this race and in Glazer's failed 2014 bid for the state Assembly. In truth, the governor and the former adviser have had some public distance between them since Glazer was \u003ca href=\"http://www.calaborfed.org/index.php/site/page/2181\" target=\"_blank\">blacklisted by organized labor\u003c/a> for 2012 legislative campaigns in which he worked for a business-backed political action committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which is why it was notable to see the governor being name-dropped in the home stretch of the special election runoff, but by Glazer's opponent. Assemblywoman Bonilla, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/prior-elections/special-elections/2015-sd7/election-results-primary\" target=\"_blank\">who came in second to Glazer in March\u003c/a> (but slipped past another Democrat to advance), recently was promoted by a pro-labor campaign whose recent TV ad ends with this tagline:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yV2FyRKASRE?rel=0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No wonder classroom teachers, local law enforcement, and Gov. Jerry Brown trust Susan Bonilla.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But lest you think otherwise, that's \u003cem>not\u003c/em> a shoutout from the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Governor Brown has not endorsed in this race,\" said his spokesman, Evan Westrup, in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not hard to see why Brown is a real prize in this race; after all, he's the state's top Democrat in a Democratic-friendly district. The governor won with 63 percent of the vote in this East Bay Senate district last November. In 2012, his \u003ca href=\"http://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_30,_Sales_and_Income_Tax_Increase_%282012%29\" target=\"_blank\">Proposition 30\u003c/a> tax increase won in the district with more than 56 percent of the vote. And Brown's current statewide job approval numbers remain high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a Democrat in a tough race ... and in a strong Democratic district (a plurality 43.4 percent of voters) ... Brown's the guy you want to be seen with. Except that in this race, both candidates are Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10496859\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10496859\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/04/16251873977_532ac2a3b1_o-e1429552464764-800x479.jpg\" alt=\"Undated photo of Gov.

Jerry Brown these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race between Assemblywoman \u003ca href=\"http://susanbonilla.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Susan Bonilla\u003c/a> (D-Concord) and Orinda Mayor \u003ca href=\"http://www.glazerforsenate.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Steve Glazer\u003c/a> has more dramatic storylines than you can possibly keep track of: Democrats fighting each other; big money being spent by independent groups normally aligned with either labor unions (pro-Bonilla) or Republicans (pro-Glazer); the shifting strategies of campaigns under California's top-two primary rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And those are just the biggies. But in these closing weeks, the guy who seems to be the real political prize is the one who's tried hard to stay away from this Democrat vs. Democrat wrestling match: Gov. Jerry Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The easy, and therefore less spoken, connection is between Brown and Glazer. The two men have a relationship that dates back more than 30 years. \"Their enduring relationship is a testament both to Mr. Glazer's devotion to Mr. Brown and to Mr. Brown's penchant for trusting only a handful of close advisers,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/02/us/02sfpolitics.html?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">said the New York Times in a 2010 profile of Glazer\u003c/a> while he was helping run Brown's successful bid for a third term as governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Brown has kept an official distance from his longtime friend in this race and in Glazer's failed 2014 bid for the state Assembly. In truth, the governor and the former adviser have had some public distance between them since Glazer was \u003ca href=\"http://www.calaborfed.org/index.php/site/page/2181\" target=\"_blank\">blacklisted by organized labor\u003c/a> for 2012 legislative campaigns in which he worked for a business-backed political action committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And the GOP candidate it endorses, Hertle, isn’t even campaigning for the job but \u003ca href=\"http://michaelahertle.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has instead endorsed Democrat Steve Glazer, the mayor of Orinda\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer is the candidate perhaps best poised to win crossover Republican votes on March 17, in part because of a long and heated fight with organized labor.

He then lost a bitter 2014 race for the Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But back to the mailers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bill Wong, the campaign consultant who oversees the Asian American Small Business PAC, says the elephant logo is not intended to suggest to voters that the pro-Hertle flyers are from the GOP or that she’s been endorsed by the party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s false advertising,” he said in an interview on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Wong claims the logo is a “stock image” that an outside vendor provided to his political action committee. And he insists the committee would like to see Hertle, who isn’t campaigning, elected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the committee also would like to see Glazer lose out in a race that also features Democrats \u003ca href=\"http://susanbonilla.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Susan Bonilla\u003c/a>, a sitting assemblywoman; \u003ca href=\"http://www.joanbuchanan.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joan Buchanan\u003c/a>, a former assemblywoman; and newcomer \u003ca href=\"http://www.kremin.us/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Terry Kremin\u003c/a>. Earlier this week, the PAC began sending out anti-Glazer mailers to Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re trying to do is educate the public,” said Wong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Republican Party sees it differently. Its lawsuit accuses the political action committee of using the elephant logo “with the intent to cause confusion and to deceive consumers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",
