The article focuses on issues related to the victory of incumbent California Governor Gray Davis in the 2002 midterm elections. The victory of Davis over Bill Simon Jr. has left a lot of Democrats disappointed. Armed with a $68 million campaign funds and faced with a challenger who even Republicans said ran the most inept campaign in the nation, Davis was expected to finish with a double-digit lead. But his 47-to-42-percent victory netted him five points less than he won when first elected in 1998.
