Jungle primary assures only centrist Dems will ever be elected in CA (top 2 vote getters in the primaries go on to the general, regardless of party. So the matchup is a centrist Dem against a somewhat further left Dem, and all the Republican voters just vote for the centrist).
Edit: If I was advising a leftish dem in CA, I'd suggest finding issues that call pull in right wing voters that don't compromise principles i.e. guns.
i knew a few r's who voted for de leon last time to own the libs. they figured that even if he won he would be ineffective and not be able to get anything done because "he is so far left", which you know, probably not wrong. plus a lot of republicans fucking hate feinstein so much they would vote for stalin if he was running against her
I want to live in the universe where Stalin moved to California, ran against Feinstein for Senate, and then won and is a now a member of U.S. Congress.

Prior to the jungle primary, Feinstein was still cleaning up. She'd just clobber whomever was in the primary and curb stomp the Republican in the general.
