Gray Davis was recalled as governor of California by the
efforts of the people including petitions.
Many voters will separate the issues from their politicians.
Notice how many Obama supporters separate him from the
issues that people hate.....HIS issues. It was the petition
system that brought forth the anti gay marriage initiative
and Prop 187, both of which were passed by the California
voters but lost in the courts.
You couldn’t stand in my way if you wanted to. Maybe
you should try the initiative system in Michigan. Your
state isn’t exactly the conservative Rock of Gibraltar
either. You should probably do some research about the
California initiative system before you do much more
popping off at any rate.
The petition not about getting rid of politicians. It’s to overturn the laws signed by Jerry Brown in June onto the November 8th ballot. This will allow the voters to decide, not the lawmakers.
That being stated, this is off to a bad start. The closest place in conservative and heavily populated southern Orange County to sign the petition is Corona, over 30 miles away. No one will drive out there.
