And the truth is, most folks voted YES on recall to remove Boy Davis, not to see Arnold get elected.

Ummm hmmm. The design of the election was such that anyone could have voted to remove Davis without voting to seat Arnold in his place. The fact they did the latter shows that they both voted YES on recall to remove Boy Davis AND to see Arnold get elected.

Hmmm. Let's stay away from sophistry. There was enough of that during the campaign.

Simply put. Exit polling taken by NBC, showed the question of voting YES on recall, was based on a fundamental desire to recall Davis. It wasn't based on an overwhelming desire to elect Arnold. I didn't mention the figures shown, because I wasn't sure if it indicated 65% or 85%. This is simple stuff to grasp. In other words, Arnold wasn't the main reason Californian's voted for recall. And to say it was, is being dishonest. If you voted yes on recall and didn't choose a candidate, that would be downright silly and a waste of time.
