Democratic Party faces key (and really complicated) vote in Campos-Chiu race

By Tim Redmond

FEB. 7 — A subset of the California Democratic Party meets in Burlingame Saturday to decide on a possible early endorsement of either David Campos or David Chiu for the 17th state Assembly District.

The support of the party would be a huge boost for either candidate – but the process for winning it is so complex, and the bar so high, that it would be remarkable if either of them won.
