California voters will soon start getting their ballots in the mail. County election offices have until next Monday, October 5th, to begin sending them out. Voters will have lots to decide on, including who will be the next governor, Democrat Xavier Becerra or Republican Steve Hilton. A recent poll puts Becerra in the lead by more than 25 points, and that lead is growing. But is the Democrat taking that lead for granted? Guest: Marisa Lagos, KQED Governor Gavin Newsom has signed two new safety laws after a fire at a cold-storage warehouse in Boyle Heights, a neighborhood just east of downtown Los Angeles. He also signed a handful of bills this weekend meant to increase protections for reproductive care and LGBTQ+ communities, and several related to gun violence.

Leading the week: Phil and Penny Knight's $1B gift to build a new Knight College of Engineering at the University of Oregon — which, fun fact, walks straight into the territory the state system carved out for Oregon State a century ago, so consider this the moment that rivalry got a very expensive new chapter (with Jensen Huang's OSU gifts as the friendly counterweight). Then Rapta closed an $8M round for its manufacturing intelligence platform, and what caught my eye wasn't the number — it was the all-local cap table: Voyager Capital, Elevate Capital, Portland Seed Fund, and Bend Venture Conference, with Diane Fraiman and Kirk Holland taking board seats. I also did a two-part startup-lens read on the Oregon governor's race — comparing Kotek's and Drazan's actual plans, then sitting through the PBJ/OBI forum where neither candidate said the word "startup" once — and landed on a closing thought that's stuck with me: OBI has a room, we don't. Plus Built Festival felt like a genuine family reunion (save the date — 10th anniversary is October 1, 2027), Selena Deckelmann made TIME's Executives of the Year list, and there's now a Calagator-style map for Portland's pop-up food scene, courtesy of a Canard bar manager who got $40K dev-shop quotes and had a regular build it for free instead.LINKS:Selena Deckelmann recognized among 2026 TIME Executives of the Year — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/09/22/selena-deckelmann-recognized-among-2026-time-executives-of-the-year-tech-and-data/TIME Executives of the Year: Tech and Data — https://time.com/collection/executives-of-the-year-tech-data/2026/selena-deckelmann/Looking for Portland pop-ups and food events?

The Tax Foundation recently ranked New Mexico 7th highest for tax collections. It's new information, but the data is from four years ago (FY 2023). New Mexico is likely close to number 1 now.

It just so happens that NM has $7.6 billion in unspent capital outlay $$$. Paul discusses the options and whether the Legislature will try for a gas tax increase.
Part 1 - On "The Candidates Speak" host Neville James interviews Gubernatorial candidate Gustav James.
Last Tuesday, Oregon Governor Tina Kotek appeared at an anti-data center rally in Salem where she announced she now supports a moratorium on new data centers. As OPB reported, the announcement shows Kotek has abandoned the cautious approach she had previously taken on an issue that’s gaining momentum with voters and raising the stakes in her bid for reelection in less than two months. Within hours of Kotek’s announcement, gubernatorial opponent state Sen. Christine Drazan told KATU that she too supports an immediate pause on data centers and that they should provide benefits for communities that host them, among other requirements for approval. That’s a shift from just a few weeks ago when Drazan told OPB that she doesn’t support ending existing tax breaks for the roughly 120 data centers in the state. Think Out Loud features OPB political reporters Dirk VanderHart and Lauren Dake explaining all this in the latest episode of the OPB Politics Now podcast.

Florida's primary election results are in, and the news is big. Byron Donalds, a congressman from Florida, has won the Republican nomination for governor, and his wife Erica is a powerhouse advocate for education freedom. But the real story out of Florida isn't about Byron Donalds' victory, it's about the rise of the Marxists in the Democrat Party. Alexander Vinman, the star witness in Donald Trump's impeachment trial, was expected to win the Democrat nomination for Senate, but he lost to a state legislator named Angie Nixon, who is a member of the Democrat Socialists of America. This episode of the podcast dives into the implications of these results and what they mean for the future of the country. Larry discusses the Democrat Party's shift towards Marxism and the consequences of this shift. They also talk about the importance of education freedom and how it can be a game-changer for families. With Byron Donalds' victory, Florida is poised to become a model for the rest of the nation on education freedom. The episode also touches on the story of David Morens, a former top advisor at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who has been charged with conspiracy and obstruction of justice. Larry discusses the implications of this case and how it relates to the country's current state of affairs.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A hundred years ago, the Jesuit philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin imagined a third great leap for the Earth: after the geosphere and the biosphere, a noosphere — a layer of human connection that would link every mind on the planet and push us toward shared knowledge and compassion. Joe Trippi argues that we've now built it. But it didn't arrive in temples or parliaments; it came through platforms, code, and the satellites encircling the planet — and what was meant to bring us together is instead being used to digitize, monetize, and weaponize us. Teilhard, Trippi notes, saw the dark possibility coming. He just never accounted for algorithms, deepfakes, or billionaires with rocket fleets.Trippi likens current social media to B.F. Skinner's box: the likes, notifications, and endless scroll that keep us pressing the lever for the next dopamine hit — an experiment now being run on billions of minds at once, with AI as the next iteration. Trippi's claim is that this isn't a side effect; it's the design. And it explains, he says, why the ambitions of tech moguls and aspiring autocrats have started to converge — why he calls this "the hour of the predator," with the rest of us cast as the rats.So who is the experiment really for, and how much have we already surrendered? Trippi's answer is a call to climb out of the box — to stop feeding the machine that divides us and reclaim the noosphere as a space for freedom and dignity rather than control. Whether that's still possible is the question he hands the audience."Rise up. Stand together. Revolt. Be human." Heralded on the cover of The New Republic as the man who “reinvented campaigning,” Joe Trippi pioneered bringing politics into the digital age and brings an added digital component to the Lincoln Project arsenal.For decades he and the Lincoln Project co-founders worked against each other in partisan fights. Trippi has worked for Democrats at every level over 4 decades – from Ted Kennedy, Walter Mondale and managing Howard Dean's groundbreaking presidential campaign in 2004. Trippi has been a media and campaign strategist for dozens of Senate and Gubernatorial campaigns including Jerry Brown's 2010 comeback campaign for Governor of California and Doug Jones' historic Senate victory in Alabama, where Jones became the first Democratic US Senator in Alabama in 25 years.Trippi has served as an on-air political analyst for MSNBC/NBC, CBS Evening News, FOX News and CNN. His weekly podcast is “That Trippi Show”.He joined the Lincoln Project because “we have to stop seeing this as Democrat vs. Republican. Right vs left. This has to be all of us coming together in a pro-democracy coalition to defeat an authoritarian movement that is using every means to seize power.”He is also co-founder of Sez.Us, a social networking platform that seeks to improve society by promoting civic and democratic values.
