← California voter guide: June 2022
Eleni Kounalakis
Lieutenant Governor

Lieutenant Governor

The incumbent faces no serious Democratic opponents and the office arguably should not exist.

I voted for now-Lieutenant Governor Kounalakis in the 2018 primary, while suggesting that California join the seven other states without a Lieutenant Governor office. Since her election, I haven’t really heard anything noteworthy about her (again indicating that we’d be fine without the position), but now that she’s running for re-election, she has no serious Democratic opponents.
