MAXINE: ‘Fancy Parties’ In Beverly Hills Ought To Give CA ‘More Say’ Than Iowa, NH
[DAILYWIRE] Rep. The Ageless and Downright Brilliant Comrade Maxine Impeach 45! Waters
...U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 28.21494 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in the United States Congress, and a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 43.21289 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was a little brighter she'd be a Communist...
(D-CA) says her home state of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, should have "more say" in the Democratic Party’s primaries because they have "fancy" big-money parties in Beverly Hills.
That makes sense. Not a lot of sense, but sense. Of a sort. Kinda.
"As you know, we have candidates who fly out to Los Angeles from everywhere to raise money," the California Democrat told CNBC on Thursday.

"As a matter of fact, it had gotten so that you would have two, three, four at a time in Beverly Hills having dinners. And some of our contributors who are very rich were holding, you know, fancy parties, trying to accommodate the request for donations and contributions. And so, you know, the conclusion, the thinking is that if we are supplying tremendous dollars to candidates, we ought to have more say."

California’s primary comes up on March 3 ‐ Super Tuesday ‐ after a handful of other states hold caucuses and primaries. But Waters thinks California should be front and center at all times.

"Beyond that, a lot of people have come to the conclusion that it should not simply be Iowa and New Hampshire and certainly they are not reflective of the makeup of this country," Waters added. "And so, California has a role to play."
