You know an incumbent running for re-election is in deep kimchi<\/a> when he (1) polls only 15% before the primary and (2) has a “disapprove” job rating from an outright majority and more than double the number who approve. The latest California Elections & Policy Poll* is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles County likely voters only, D.A. (MoE for L.A. County, +\/-5.9%):<\/p>\n

Q. In 2024, there will be an election for District Attorney in Los Angeles
\nCounty. Which candidate will you vote for in the 2024 primary election?<\/p>\n

15% George Gasc\u00f3n
\n8% Jonathan Hatami
\n4% Nathan Hochman
\n2% Jeff Chemerinsky
\n2% Craig Mitchell
\n2% Maria Ramirez
\n<1% each, all other individual candidates
\n64% Don\u2019t know<\/p>\n

Q. Do you approve or disapprove of the job George Gasc\u00f3n is doing as
\nDistrict Attorney of L.A. County?<\/p>\n

24% Approve
\n51% Disapprove
\n25% Don\u2019t know<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There is a slew of candidates running, essentially, for second place in the Super Tuesday primary, March 5. (It would make a statement if one of them actually topped Gasc\u00f3n, but there is no concrete difference between first and second.) The top two go on the November ballot, nearly certain to be Gasc\u00f3n and someone else. The someone else will likely be a Gasc\u00f3n critic who advocates a tougher-on-crime policy. Of course, 64% is a big “undecided.” Given that 3\/4 of the voters have an opinion of Gasc\u00f3n and 2\/3 of those have a negative opinion, it is likely that most of these people will vote for one of the tougher candidates but haven’t decided which one yet.<\/p>\n
