Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg helped Kamela Harris in CA AG Race... sort of

Mark Z busts-out Chris Kelly
Smarting from his former lawyer Chris Kelly's attempt to throw Facebook under the bus as he runs for the California Attorney General seat currently held by Jerry Brown, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg reported a "maybe" in response to a Facebook page to help make calls for Kelly's opponent San Francisco District Attorney Kamela Harris on Sunday, according to The LA Times.

No word if Zuckerberg actually showed up on Sunday, but the simple action of responding to the Facebook page may be enough to knock Chris Kelly off his campaign game with just one day to go before the Tuesday June 8th primary election. In short, Mark Zuckerberg helped Kamela Harris.

Frankly, what Chris Kelly did, saying that he sides with MoveOn.org in fighting Facebook's privacy policy, after serving as the Facebook lawyer who made the original one that itself wasn't so popular, is too little, too late.

If Chris Kelly so disagreed with Facebook on the privacy policy issue, he should have not waited until five days before election day to say so; he's had a ton of time to do this, and could have added his voice to that of tech stars like Jason Calacanis last year.



Instead, Chris Kelly's campaign is being torpedoed by this great Kamela Harris ad:



In the interest of full disclosure, this blogger will vote for Kamela Harris for California Attorney General.
