Most likely California will cheat to keep him in, hopefully to their own fall.

The people of California wanted this recall. Hence why it's so close that Newsom had a mental breakdown over it until "Cackles" promised to do a speech for him. I know this might be a shocker to you, but many Cali residents are tired of the destruction going on in your state. Unemployment is sky high, homelessness is sky high, crime is up, and your state is in debt.


Factor all of that in with a Governor who's literally the walking definition of "rules for thee but not for me" during this entire pandemic, and the people are tired of it. I hope he loses to Elder, and I hope it drives you mad.

No you're not. You've been prancing around all over CD touting as if there's nothing wrong with your state. Congrats - you're one of the many Cali residents that's part of the problem.

Soros and the CEO of Netflix donated some healthy checks to Newsom. But I know, you don't care. They could've waited 9 more months, right?

Nope-

Too many loonies in CA- very little chance.

As it proves one thing....the Governor knows that people will not stand for mandates.

As soon as the recall became official, within days he announced that he would "open the State". If it wasn't for the recall we would all be masked and jabbed, but he knows that would not fly even in this highly liberal-leaning state. The Legislature dropped the Vaccine Passport bill due to fears it would bolster the recall effort.

However, come the day after the vote he will go back to his dictatorial ways, and if people think what Biden announced was bad...you ain't seen nothing yet.
It’s a good thing for the government to be scared of the people every once in a while. As an independent, I think one party rule (either Democratic or Republican) is very bad and ultimately leads to failure. I’m from California, and I’d love it if the electorate gave the entrenched corrupt Democratic establishment in that state a big F U .

Same here. He's not going anywhere. Besides, he's related to Pelosi. You know what hell Pelosi would unleash if Newsome was removed? Talk about the curse of the 10,000 year old unraveled mummy with makeup.

Newsome would have been recalled if there was only requested absentee ballots and one day, in person voting. The people who want him recalled are motivated; most people don't really care and probably would not have bothered to vote. As it is, ballot harvesting will help Newsom win easily.

In CA you are legally allowed to run around, collect other people's ballots, fill them out for them and drop it off. For People who might not even exist.

AND all of their mail ballots specifically show ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE ENVELOPE if they are recalling the governor or not. AND supposedly you can use a light through the envelope to see their vote.

So No. Of course the **** not.

You can also print your ballot from the comfort of your home. But we have people on here like Natalie and Dane saying we're crazy for factoring in that they could cheat.
