Problem is that there may not be 50% necessary to vote for recall, therefore Gavin Newsom stays in office.

People angry with him are more likely to show up. Special election. That means fewer voters.

Problem really is there is only about 5 weeks left to come up with the required number of signatures. While that may be possible, it will take about 15% more because valid signatures are required. Many of the signatures will turn out to be people who signed twice, people who signed up in one county but are registered in a different county, and people who are not registered at all.

I support the recall but am concerned that not enough valid signatures will be gathered. If a vote does take place, guaranteed the Dems will work to stuff the ballot box. Times have changed a great deal, including the population, since Gray Davis was recalled, and in that case, we ended up with Arnold who turned out to truly be a girly man governor who caved to the Dems on issue after issue.

It doesn’t take 50% in a recall to win. The candidate with the most votes wins. That’s how Arnold won the first time as I recall. But rest assured that the GOPee will find a way to dilute their vote and lose.
