(Editor’s Note: Sometimes, technology issues can slow down even the most tech-savvy DCist. Fortunately, DCist’s backup communications network using courier pigeons has brought us Hemal Jhaveri’s weekly “West Wing” roundup.)

California … here we come … California! Ooops. Wrong show. It’s Super Tuesday in “West Wing” land, and the Dems are each fighting for a win in the California primary. Santos, Russell and Hoynes are in the depths of primary campaigning, each trying to eek out a clear win. From the sloppy exposition at the start of the episode, we learn that Santos won Arizona and New Mexico, and is now running a distant third to Hoynes and Russell.

Hoynes has a commanding lead in California and is expected to win that state. Russell is running a comfortable second in Cali, so Devil Spawn Will decides that they can’t win there and to campaign in New York, where they have a fighting chance against Hoynes.
