‘Now or never moment’ as Matt Mahan’s campaign for California governor implodes weeks before primary

Matt Mahan’s campaign for California governor is facing internal turmoil as weak polling just two months before the primary election has led to the San Jose mayor parting ways with his top political consultant. Eric Jaye told Politico the split occurred due to a “difference of opinion about strategy,” declining to elaborate. The departure of Mahan’s chief political strategist comes at a critical time, as he holds the backing of major players in big tech — like Google co-founder Sergey Brin and Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale — but is still polling in the low single digits a month before ballots are mailed.
