    2021 CA Gubernatorial Recall Election

    This is going to be interesting. The recall ballot has 46 candidates, not including Newsom. 46!

    If the majority of the electorate votes for recall, the candidate with the most votes wins. No need for a majority, a plurality will suffice.

    CA may be the bluest of the blue states, but the last time there was a recall election in 2003, a Democratic governor was recalled and replaced with a Republican.

    The Democratic machine is sweating buckets. They've put more effort into fighting this recall than they did getting Newsom elected. Even more telling, the Newsom camp is dead silent. No pronouncements from the governor's office regarding the renewed mask mandates, nothing at all. I can't remember the last time I saw his smug face in a press conference. It feels like he's lying low.

    Larry's probable only course of action is the veto pen and the bully pulpit. The Dem machine has a super majority so even the pen won't help slow them down.

    Caitlyn Jenner will be the Governor of CA if the recall occurs. Bet it.

    Anything is possible in California, but I don't think Caitlyn will be the next governor. I don't see him having enough support.

    California only turned blue in the 80s. It used to be solidly republican.

    I read an article by a democratic strategist/politico who said that if Newsom loses, it'll the the first pull of the string that will unravel the democrat strongholds in 2022 and 2024.

    A California man was discovered asleep in his car in the parking lot of a 7-Eleven store in Torrance with drugs, cash, and several drivers’ licenses, according to ABC7

    Oh… I nearly forgot. There were about 300 unopened recall election ballots in the car.

    Looks like the recall will be defeated by 120% of the vote, and the media will declare it a victory for democracy.
