Encinitas Mayor Catherine Blakespear announced Tuesday she plans to run for California’s 36th Senate District in 2022.
[...]
“We know that California right now is really in need of an equitable economic recovery from the pandemic,” she said. “We need bold leadership in tackling the ever growing threat of climate change. That requires action from all levels of government at all times. It’s really important that California continue to be a leader.”
Blakespear aims to offer Californians more choices for zero-emission vehicles and accessible transit and to create jobs in renewable energy. She supports making COVID-19 recovery funds available to small businesses, particularly those owned by women and people of color, and providing resources to help students make up for learning loss experienced during the pandemic.

She can't even run Encinitas...are you kidding me?????
ReplyDeleteI will do everything to my power to let the air out of her balloon.
Just another gullible warming leftist fool.
Anyone remember over twenty years ago when "the experts" stated man made global warming would result in raising seas and the east coast of the United States would be underwater? (I guess the east and west coasts aren't connected). It was a lie then and it is a lie now. Anyone that believes in the fraud is questionable in mind and function.
ReplyDeleteThe "warmers" are a twisted lot and when proven wrong...they still believe in gullible warming.
Career politicians are a thing. Like puppets to be played.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be fun to see if elected, will Queen Cat takes her drones with her?
ReplyDeleteI hope that she takes all of the lemmings with her, City Council included.
DeleteOhhh' people of color. Don't look now but..."WHITE IS A COLOR"
ReplyDeleteMore choices for zero-emission vehicles. Ever been to a car lot?
The friggin' things are all over. And the biggest fallacy?
Creating more jobs for renewable energy...ya' sure. While the vegetable biden just slammed the door on thousands of pipeline jobs in America and hurt Canadian workers.
Same ol' leftist America ruining garbage.
shut up steve
DeleteShe was first elected to city council in 2014. Then she was mayor in 2016, re-elected in 2018, and 2020. Just line it up and draw a line - she's going to win this for sure.
ReplyDeleteHahahah. That's funny. I guess Julie Thunder might now actually have a chance.
DeleteHey genius, she believes in the same things the loser newsom does and he is about to get kicked out of office.
DeleteEven brain leftists are waking up to these clowns...
They are "the sub-left". Whoever replaces blackspear and if they a pinhead like her, I'll be all over them as well.
Yo Bud, Sorry you get an F in math. 2018 she got 85% of the vote. 2020 she got 55%. A 30% drop in two years! Unheard of.
DeleteIf less than 3,000 voters would have been more informed, she would not be are destructive mayor today.
She stands no chance considering she has too many blood stain on the roads including fatalities, and way too many other misteps with the BIA and homeless promoting actions.
She is out. Just like we got rid of shitty Jerome.
7:24 - just draw the line dummy. She's a shoo-in. Just draw the line.
Delete5:59
DeleteLOL, Newsom kicked out, good luck with that. Hey steve, instead of buying all the fantasies your masters on oan/fox feed your sheep brain, how about just moving to a place that's more of the shithole you dream of? Our algorithms have matched your preferences to russia and north korea. Fascism for days, the kind that the ever-failing right has wet dreams of! So I recommend packing up and shipping out ASAP. You're welcome!
hilarious... these politicians are stupid ambitious ... Gaspar II - The Botox (eyebrow) Arising!
ReplyDeleteThe PAC money ain't going to be enough to overcome incompetence / poor performance and most importantly an unwillingness to represent her constituents. Please move on!
“Mayday, Mayday, Mayday”.... “This is Encinitas Calling" ... “Our position is a bit north of Fidel's" .. “The city is is floundering and we've given away all of the cash to a friend who drove her bike into a truck" .... "The captain is giving up the ship". "Please send help.."
ReplyDeleteShe wants to be California governor.
ReplyDeleteYup. She and the current loser are about on the same low wave length. They do not listen and understand common sense solutions and have terrible judgement. Tatal flaws. We in Encinitas see the results with all the blood on the streets and with Newsom with all the additional dead children and businesses due to his incompetence.
DeleteThere was never a captain. Only five dummies.
ReplyDeleteDid she actually call Highway 101 Highway 1, or did the U-T misquote her?
ReplyDeleteThat pat on the back puff piece is riddled with lies. That reporter got played.
ReplyDeleteMy prediction. Complete fail.
ReplyDeleteShe went from an approval vote of 85% down to 55% in 2 years. She would not have survived the next election as our Mayor. Her constinuents depise her.
Any other semi qualified candidate will beat her maybe even that fool from IE and his dog that ran against her in 2018.
We have seen how really destructive she is in Encinitas.
She's won every election she's ever entered. Draw a line! The only loser here is you turd face.
DeleteThe main reason her vote percentage dipped in 2020 was that she had a serious, viable opponent. It had little to nothing to do with a popularity trend.
DeleteThere will be a primary in 2022. She would have to take first or second in that to be in the general. To win the general, she would have to beat a probable Republican opponent.
You are correct, but she still crushed her viable opponent. And since that time, the Republicans have doubled down on Trumpism, which isn't going to help any Republican in a California statewide general election.
DeleteEveryone, notice how the America hating left can't let go of Mr. Trump? They are obsessed with him...and he isn't even in office. But they can't let him go. The guy worked for free, secured the border, hammered china but they can't let Mr. Trump go. In certain circles it's call WHACKADOODLE. When your batsheet crazy
DeleteMust take into consideration that the trend in North County is toward the Left (hence Tasha's wins in a historically Right-leaning district), and that the district will be redrawn, possibly to become even more Left. With a primary that includes two pretty strong Dems (Blakespear and Bhat-Patel), it could very well end up like it did with Warren/Boerner-Horvath.
DeleteWell, no, she didn't crush her viable opponent. She had PAC money, was the incumbent, had an experienced campaign manager and was an experienced campaigner herself. Those were big advantages. Close to election day, she was nervous about losing so she went harshly negative.
ReplyDeleteShe'll have a long, hard haul winning the state Senate seat.
And doesn't everybody who reads here wish the idiot at 3:15 would stop posting? We all know his ignorant views. He's repeated them countless times. I think we've had enough.
Let Mr. Trump go...repeat...Let him go. He isn't President any longer, you can rest now and talk about how wonderful the elderly vegetable in the White House is doing and all your new friends streaming across the Mexican border, soon to be on welfare.
DeleteBiden has done more good in the two months he's been president than the disgraced, disreputable Trump did in four years. 4:48, you can STFU now. You're too ignorant and stupid to blanket the blog with your opinions.
DeleteYou want to play the fools game. Please write down and tell everyone what the vegetable biden has done that is so wonderful for the country, just one thing, I wouldn't want to overtax you. Gawd I can't wait for this.
Delete5:08 Don't leave out the open wall policy at the border allowing thousands a day to enter the United States, the planned tax increases, the plan to give blacks extra money that own farms but not whites, increasing the national debt to beyond monumental levels with the fake covid relief bill and not knowing people he just placed on his advisory team and most of all, not knowing what planet he inhabits when speaking. Please don't leave out those topics.
DeleteYa...that Mr. Trump, he was simply horrible. Now off you go to the tailors for a new Full 'Mental" Jacket.
6:06/6:14 You don't realize that Trump is a con man and you're a sucker?
Delete6:06 / 6:14 - congratulations! You have been recognized as the dumbest person to post today! Extra points for soiling Kubrick along the way. You're a toddler.
Delete8:01 and 10:36, STILL WAITING, COME ON GENIUS, JUST ONE THING.
DeleteAnd there it is folks, leftist childlike insanity.
6:14 - the tax increases only affect those making over $400k per year. You've never made over $40k in a year. You're safe.
Delete6:14 - and after decades of admitted discrimination by the USDA, you should be happy to help black American farmers.
DeleteI guess when you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.
This is how ignorant people on the left are. Think someone that makes 400K a year and corporations are stupid.
DeleteWhen they get taxed more they are smart enough to pass those extra taxes to the middle class whether thru manufactured goods or other means. You see, the left depends on stupid people to believe all the garbage they throw out there.
You may want to take the time to sit in on economic and logic presentations. Try not to obtain your opinions from CNN NPR and MSNBC. You'll be surprise what the truth is.
Heck, you'll be surprise that you might start thinking correctly. Still waiting for ONE THING the Alzheimers infected old man has done for America...just one thing.
He can't even take questions. He simply walks away in a mumbling mist. Nice choice voters.
What's dumber than a leftist...someone that like them
11:25 - you seem really upset. I suggest going to the bagel shop, and get a dozen everything bagels. Take them home, cut one in half, and put a bit of cream cheese on it. Maybe a little red onion, capers, and smoked salmon, if that's your thing. Put it in a backpack, and go for a nice walk in Torrey Pines, and find an empty bench overlooking the great Pacific ocean. Sit, eat your bagel, and enjoy your life. And don't forget to smile.
DeleteTrump is responsible for hundreds of thousands of American deaths from Covid. He declared the virus was a hoax, then said it would instantly disappear, then said people could kill it with internal ultraviolet light and injections of hydroxychloroquine.
DeleteBiden is a genius by comparison.
In Trumps defense, he said it would be gone by Easter. People assumed he meant Easter 2020, but he might have meant Easter 2021 or Easter 2022.
Delete11:25 - President Biden set the goal of administering 100 million vaccine doses in his first 100 days. At that time in January, the 7 day average was under 1 million, and the supply was questionable, making 100 million doses in 100 days a very ambitious goal. The US is going to reach the goal of 100 million does under President Biden tomorrow, 58 days into his presidency.
DeleteTrump wouldn't even be on video taking the vaccine, probably because he's embarrassed of his obese flab arms.
Game, set, match.
Nobody with even 1/10 of a brain would defend or support Trump. He accomplished nothing of value to America or the rest of the world in his four years. He was by far the worst, most destructive and divisive president in US history. He made W look good by comparison. Now Trump is the disgraced ex-president who's facing deserved prosecutions and condemnation for the rest of his puerile, egomaniacal life.
DeleteYou must shop a Traitor Joes, where everything is for sale.
DeleteYou have yet to point out one thing. It was the States that got the people vaccinated. Not dementia joe.
Try and get anything right...please
4:23 You're a Trump supporter? You must be blind, deaf and dumb. Either that or you were Rip Van Winkled for the four years Trump was president. Stay awake for the prosecutions, judgments of guilt, fines and jail time.
DeleteGaspar can go back to Step One again - run for city Council and start over. The pathetic thing is that she might actually win!
ReplyDeleteHere is another one. Gaspar ISN'T IN OFFICE. What is wrong with you people? You continue to bring up Gaspar.
DeleteJesus Christ...get a life. She isn't in office.
You people are like dining at Dingbat cafe, where the only thing on the menu is a combo platter of nut case and psyhco
I thought Gaspar won?
Delete8:01 - really? Then why is she often on the boob yapping on about "put the kids back in school", build east county, etc.? The heckling is deserved.
DeleteAs if there isn't enough nutcase leftists in the California government now. Blackspear wants to run and do what? The same goofball garbage she has done to Encinitas. Oh' ya' I'll support that...I'd rather put a .357 to my head and give the trigger a yank.
ReplyDeleteWho's looking here who also looks at Encinitas Votes?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think of Lorri Greene's consistent complaints about posts, moves to kick people off the site and how hard she works to moderate it?
How about her frequenting fishing for compliments, pity and sympathy?
How about her regularly saying she walked with Martin Luther King?
How about her saying she's old and a retired psychotherapist?
Would anybody have gone to her for help when she was still working?
Did she get her PhD from the University of American Samoa?
High on the ditz scale.
DeleteRight, high DQ = ditz quotient.
Delete8:26 - um, do you have a problem with Dr. Greene? If so, you forgot to mention that she feeds her cats nothing but soft food. Can we talk about you, and what is bothering you? What makes you spend evenings lashing out at people that you imagine as somehow being enemies? If someone would say to you, yes - you are spot-on! That Lorri Greene is really a piece of work! Would you feel better about yourself?
ReplyDeleteOh gawd 8:26 is Gonzalez crying because he was booted from more than one Facebook page? Can't let it go, lol.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to suffer insufferable people, go ahead.
DeleteHuh?
DeleteBelieve 9:56 means he's as thin skinned as his mayor bff. Stay out of the kitchen is my advice.
DeleteNow the biden administration is "flying central america and mexican migrants" from Texas to San Diego. Think I'm lying? look it up.
ReplyDeleteNice going voters. Thanks for helping to ruin the United States.
You friggin' morons...
The only thing ruining the United States is bigots like you. Why don't you go get a bagel and go for walk?
DeleteI know 9:57 is doing a setup because no one could be this dumb. And to think I fell for it. My bad...
DeleteAnyone watch dementia joe fall three times walking up stairs to an airplane?
ReplyDeleteThe country has problems, next in line, the fool with a law degree.
Tamale Harris
Where did you go to law school?
DeleteThe fool with a law degree, Tamale Harris, is next in line.
DeleteWhere does blanket bigotry get you? What good does it do?
DeleteHarris is living proof that just because you can pass a test, it doesn't mean you have a lick of sense.
ReplyDeleteOr, all brains and no brains. Look at biden, dementia brain.
Now, on to blackspear...
And now, the latest. harris is claiming to be black (yet again) in an article about famous black women. This fraud never stops.
Delete1:14 - like you claiming to have a set of balls? Mustard seeds in a dried sack. You are a tiny boy-man.
DeleteRacist blog is gonna be racist.
ReplyDeleteWC Varones = White Christian Male Racist
Disagree? Then get rid of the constant stream of racist comments, or end anonymous comments. No? Pussy.
4:00- Its sad that you to assumed WC stands for White Christian.
ReplyDeleteYou do realize that your assumptions make you seem pretty prejudice right?
Maybe Mommy should have breast fed you or something. I do not know. Go to a therapy group or get some help for yourself and your future. Remember, Its your life. You might want to do things to help you enjoy it.
If I didn't know better I would think "biden the demented" was running the City of Encinitas. Trouble is, with the trips and falls he would sue himself, and payout would be with other peoples money.
ReplyDelete1:18 - your one-man clown show effort to paint Biden as demented is hilarious. Your are relentless - ineffectual - but non-stop. For that you get nothing other than ridicule. What are you trying to achieve with your redundant posts? For sure your giving a clear reveal of your hamster brain and idea of purpose.
ReplyDeleteNow "biden the demented" is NOT allowing the press into the interment camps this side of the border where tens of thousands of illegals are housed across the country. What is the demented hiding? Why no press conference with open questions to the demented? What is the left hiding, I know, lets' ask blakeshear. She a leftist, maybe she knows. Never mind, the lie of man made global warming and the promise of everyone on a bicycle is much more important than the invasion from turd world countries.
ReplyDelete10:44, are you one of the 100 million vaxes in Biden's first 58 days? You'll refuse your $1,400 payment, right?
ReplyDeleteFor those that think you are getting a gift from the "demented", think again. If you pay Federal taxes, you simply received some of your money...BACK TO YOU. The others are just grifters.
ReplyDeleteYou tax payers receive nothing for free. And, as for vaccine's?
You can thank the Trump administration for plowing thru the red tape and getting it to market in record time.
Don't be fooled by the "demented" and the lies
I received my first shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine two weeks ago.
DeleteIt was the first vaccine approved for use in the US, and was developed by an American company, Pfizer, in partnership with BioNTech, a German company, founded by two Turkish-German scientists. Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci developed the first approved messenger RNA-based vaccine against COVID-19 in 2020.
Pfizer-BioNTech was not part of Operation Warp Speed.
It's a tad bit ironic that the fasted vaccine to market wasn't part of Operation Warp Speed.
Trump gets no credit for the vaccines available. In fact, he hid the fact that he even got the vaccine, unlike every other past President who was on camera getting the shot.
So Operation Warp Speed didn't have anything to do with the vaccines? So there is no FDA in the United States where these vaccines would have taken years to accept and put into use. Ahhhh' What????? And Phizer and American Company is never required to go through FDA testing that takes years? Where did you come up with
Deletethis? More CCN psycho babble? I can't wait for this answer.
OWS had nothing to do with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
DeleteIt really eats you up that a Turkish-German couple's company were the first vaccine to market in the US.
For use in America it had to go through and pass the FDA. Someone just doesn't make a drug and BAM !!! give it to the public. Where did you come up with that?
DeleteOf course is was Operation Warp Speed. What is wrong with you?
You seem to be just a tad bit confused. Maybe the vaccine had more of an effect on you than you realize.
So, will you reject your $1,400? Have you had your free vaxes?
ReplyDeleteWhy would I reject "my own money". If you are still in high school which I suspect. "Pay more attention to your instructor"
DeleteAssuming you paid more than $1,400, that is. And since you're such a patriot, wouldn't you want your tax dollars to be part of doing good, beneficial things?
DeleteWhat about those free vaccinations? Had them?
are you still 15?
Delete12:37 Your position is indefensible. If you had even half a brain, you'd know that.
Deletewhen is Biden going to give Trump credit for all the lives that hydroxychloroquine and bleach, and the internal light saved? And thank Trump for Space Force! This elite military unit restored universal respect and protection from aliens... Obama completely ignored this threat.
ReplyDeleteAfter making Encinitas a mess, Blakespear now wants a cushy Federal job, where she can really do nothing! This City is the springboard for the incompetents to try for higher office, where they can stretch the Peter Principle into taffy!
ReplyDeleteShe's running for state senate, not federal senate.
DeleteWhat ever she is running for...she will ruin, just like anyone on the left (newsom, biden, harris, fletchure, gloria). Bad ides gone wrong.
DeleteWhy is it everything they do is the opposite of good sense?
Now illegals are going into the San Diego "Con"vention Center? Insanity
Proving yet again, "everything the left does, they destroy"
ReplyDeletemigrants will soon be inhabiting the San Diego Convention Center. Do you see the correlation? blakespear, gloria, biden, fletcher, harris...just to name a few. All leftists
You can't send your kid to school, eat at a cafe, have dinner parties but the America HATING left brings in covid infected migrants from turd world countries by the tens of thousands. That's right, vote blakespear for more leftist insanity.
7:29 - "Left", "America Hating", "destroy", etc. ------ this tool is so all-over this blog, he really needs a nom de guerre.
ReplyDeleteI respectfully put forth that Esh O'Lalia is appropriate but perhaps a variant such as Ass Ol' Alia better captures his insistent, look-at-me stupidity.
Open to other suggestions here... you know the guy, he should have a blog name.
Hey genius, have you looked at what the Alzheimers riddled old man and his dimwit with a law degree are doing to the country? Oh' you can put forth all the over educated writing you want on here but the facts are that most times people with all that education can't tie their own shoes. Your idea of smart is letting tens of thousands of illegals with the chinese virus into the U.S?
DeleteThat's right, "the America hating left", you leftist.
And, it is true. Everything the left does, they destroy.
This blakespear person is still pushing the lie about man made global warming and 100 percent renewable electricity. Another fool
ReplyDeletewho doesn't know beans about either subject.
