If Newsom explicitly runs on X, Y, and Z, and you vote for him for X and Y, I think it’s fair to say that you’re at least acquiescing to Z in return for forming a majority coalition.

Why? That's a very weird line of reasoning!

Then who are you supposed to vote for if you want X and Y but are against Z (but think X or Y is more important than Z)?
