Gov Newsom is scared.

It's articles like this to show just how scared Gov Brain rot is.

Larry Elder is very very well known to the pinheads at the LA times. He's been on the local talk radio here for decades. They know Larry and they know he's not any kind of white supremist.

They are just carrying water for the Getty Family network of special people is all they are doing. Doing their master's bidding

Larry Elder is extremely qualified to run California, with his law background. Anytime I listen to him, I'm amazed at his sharp, quick thinking skills. Though, sometimes, he does talk a little fast.

If they are Black Democratic party claiming candidates they are not endorsed by the Democrat Party and are in rebellion because the party feels that if given a Democratic party member alternative to vote for on question 2 then some Democratic Party voters would feel more justified in voting to recall Governor Newsom on question 1.

In effect Governor Newsom is running against his record and himself. If the voters vote to recall then the second question comes into play and the top vote getter of the 40 something candidates headlined by Elder and Jenner becomes California's governor for the remainder of the present term.

The 18 thus fall in the clown class, they just happened to be registered as Democrats.

The answer must be 'no' if you are doing all of this dancing around the issue.

The question is really pretty simple - yes or no?

Larry Elder is the face of white supremacy! Really? Perfect example of divisionary hogwash.


I think people (namely conservatives) have had enough and are starting to put all of the "isms" on the back burner, almost ignore mode of late. Why? Because in order to prop up one segment of society, you must attempt to bring down another segment to achieve success. However, in so doing, it creates a MASSIVE amount of division.


The end result is the division in society is of greater damage than the original problem was in the first place.


We are now asking a very simple question. Does your issue that you are signaling divide people? If so, be prepared for it to be ignored.


Smart citizens in both parties are now realizing unification is much much much more important than division.


So I read stories that are designed to divide us, it gets thrown in the dumpster.


I say "play the card that god dealt you and get on with your life." You change, don't expect others to change because most of the time, they won't.

I took a stand and choose not to take the bait anymore!

I bet Democrats are running around trying to round as many "spare" Mail in ballots as they can scrounge.

Exactly. Newsom is running against his record. But I wouldn't say the candidates are headlined by Elder and Jenner. Those two are celebrities. Elder because he's a radio personality. Jenner because he's a transgender person. So they have media exposure. They might win votes just because of name recognition like Arnie had.

I voted for Kevin Kiley. Kiley is a very smart state legislator, the real deal.
