California's official political party organizations

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While political parties in California do have a role in selecting candidates, their power is limited compared to other states. In California's primary system, any candidate who can gather enough signatures or pay a fee to get on the ballot can run and compete regardless of their party affiliation. Additionally, California has a "jungle primary" system where the top two vote-getters in the primary, regardless of party affiliation, advance to the general election. This weakens the power and influence of political parties in the candidate selection process.
