Gov. Terminator is in Silicon Valley today getting folks to cheer on Republican Steve Poizner who's running against Democrat Ira Ruskin for a state Assembly seat.
Apart from Schwarzeneger, Poizner's got endorsements from The Chron and The Merc so chances are good – for a bunch of reasons – he'll get this thing. If he wins, Poizner becomes the second tech-rich guy to put down his cash and get into politics via Sacramento. There are, I'm sure 'cause I talk to most of them all the time, more to come. And they ain't all Democrats.
UPDATE: Today's LATimes has a nice piece on Poizner. See what a little Schwarzenegger star dust can do for you?
