That highly watched California Governor race, or at least they consider it to be, between Senator Knowland and Governor Knight! Right out of the gate, the governor accuses Knowland of using this seat for higher political aspirations! Well, DUH. The fact that Ive never heard of any of these guys just goes to show how important this election really was.

Sparring between two Republican candidates for California governor is shown in this newsreel clip. This was back in the 50s, before movie stars and former Swedish bodybuilders were allowed to run, only old balding white guys. Thus, of course, it has no relevance today.
