The article isn't very clear. California has an open primary, and the two highest candidates will run against each other, even if it is two Democrats. So saying that Little is at about 18 points doesn't give you much information, because we don't have an idea of where the non-Republicans are. I have my CA Voter information Guide in front of me, and listed as running for the senate are 11 Republicans, 10 Democrats, 1 Libertarian, 1 Peace and Freedom Party, and 8 that say "No Party Preference." The article seems to say that this guy actually has a chance to make it into the general election. For that to be true, he would have to come out ahead of 30 of the 31 candidates. As is always the case, most of that long list will end up with numbers under 1%, so it is assured that he will come out ahead of a lot of people, but could he come out as number two? There are a couple of pretty popular Democrats on that list, plus Ms. Feinstein. I'm not saying it's impossible, but the article didn't give any evidence that this is actually a likely scenario. By the way, Mr. Little did not have a "Candidate's Statement" in the Guide. Not submitting a statement is not a good way to start a campaign, as lots of Californians start their decision making process with reading those statements.
However, the Alt-Right does not advocate for the Jews and Trump has appointed many Alt-Right proponents to his staff.
David Duke, a longtime antisemitic white supremacist endorsed Trump unconditionally, along with the notorious white nationalist, Richard Spencer. Richard Spencer was both mentor and best friend of Stephen Miller during their college years together.
Trump appointed Stephen Miller, another Alt-Right proponent, as his senior advisor. Julia Hahn is also an Alt-Right advisor to Trump. Trump also appointed Sebastian Gorka, another Alt-Right advocate, as his Deputy Assistant.
Then of course, there's the most conspicuous appointment of Steve Bannon, who is not only an Alt-Right proponent, who was selected by Trump to become the chief WH strategist, but was also a top executive of Breitbart news.
The Whitehouse is crawling with antisemitic Alt-Right white supremacists!
And while senator she voted for the invasion of Iraq. That rules out "intelligent and sane".

Once again you make a claim that doesn't pass the smell test.
EVERYONE was misled, including GWB. You can thank the intelligence community for the bad info. THEY are the people that said there was a 97% chance that Hussein had WMD's. They were the ones who wanted to invade and the President listened to them and Cheney.
WE shouldn't have invaded either country. They knew what would happen after the USSR basically collapsed trying to take over Afghanistan (their Viet Nam) and just about ALL of our Congressmen "were for it before they were against it!" Most of those fools are still running the show, which is an example of how pathetic our system has become and stupid our voting pool is.
Did you vote for the same representatives and senators who voted for these wars? If yes, then you are a hypocrite.
Stop with your partisan tripe and historical fantasy - the Dems are every bit to blame for wars they had no intention of winning.
They said it couldn't happen here - but it already did. The election of Trump, albeit by Comey, the Russians and a popular vote loss, had "freed the beast".
This beast is the same one that has no problem with mass extermination of "the others"...of course, many of them would be too squeamish to watch (like most Germans were), but they still have hate and bigotry in their hearts.
In some ways it's the culmination of Republican and Conservative policies. "Tradition" = blacks in their place and Jews too (ask Henry Ford and many others throughout history).
Nothing surprises me any longer. There is some hope as the older population dies off however many of them have taught this hate to their children, so it's not like things will change instantly.
Get over it: Comey is a jerk: Trump got elected by winning more states and a huge number of counties in those states and many Jews voted for him including our Jewish son in law and our Jewish friends.This idiot may be a registered Republican but he does not represent our party. I could be a registered socialist but I would not represent their party. And maybe you haven't noticed but more and more blacks are identifying with the GOP every day. Of course they are still mostly Democrats. Stop playing the race game and suck it up butter cup!!!!!!! As a party the GOP is probably less bigoted than the Dems. We just do not protest or wear our views on our sleeves.
There are 32 candidates for Senator on this ballot.
11 Republicans
10 Democrats (very surprising they're running against Feinstein)
The rest are no party or oddball parties
