  1. Another way on California's prisons

    Gov. Jerry Brown has made it clear how unhappy he is about having to produce a plan to reduce the inmate population of California's prisons by another 9,000. Under the 2011 realignment law, the state has already lowered the prisoner count by 43,000 by diverting many would-be new prisoners to county jails and many would-be parole violators to county supervision. Besides, the governor has argued, the whole point of the court-imposed population cap — 137.5% of capacity — is to resolve serious problems with inmate medical and mental health care, and hasn't that already been done with an enormous new commitment of resources and treatment?

  4. Pérez vows fiscal discipline from Democrats

    SACRAMENTO — Speaker John Pérez wants voters to know something: Cash may be cascading into state coffers as it hasn't for years. Democrats may totally control the Assembly with a new supermajority. But they're not going to be drunken sailors.

  9. State special elections are a waste

    California needs to change the way it fills state legislative vacancies. Current law requires a special election that often creates a chaotic, costly and time-consuming process of legislative musical chairs. The state soon will have had half a dozen legislative special elections this year, and easily could have at least another half-dozen to fill vacancies later this year.

  11. 'The Walking Dead' recap: Looking for empty tombs

    “The Walking Dead’s” third season died as it lived: with a handful of thrilling sequences, the intimations of war that never quite boiled over, a lot of Andrea weirdness, some unsatisfying moments from the Governor, and some powerful scoring from Bear McCreary. “Welcome To The Tombs” was third season show runner Glen Mazzara’s swan song on the show, and it seemed at times as if he was intent on putting a button on every single relationship and character arc he’d built in his time on the show. This worked beautifully in some instances, felt forced in others, and occasionally seemed to be both at the same time. It was a weird episode of television, but not an ineffective one.
