Voting One’s Interest

Re “Lockyer Broke Ranks, Voted GOP,” Oct. 19: It is not mysterious why Atty. Gen. Bill Lockyer voted for Gov.-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger. Lockyer wants to run for governor in 2006.
If Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante had won, he would have been the sitting governor in 2006 and Lockyer would have had a slim chance of beating him in the primary. Pure self-interest on Lockyer’s part.
