Did you get the Gavin Newsom recall petition letter? (Vanity)

Today I got a letter from RESCUE CALIFORNIA...

The letter had a petition to recall Gavin Newsom...

I am asking people who live in CA...Did you get the letter yet?

I am going to sign the petition and send it back in a free postage envelope...I think that I will use a stamp to save the RESCUE CALIFORNIA some money on postage.

The letter also contained a form for making donations to RESCUE CALIFORNIA...

Please write "2021" over "2020" in the petition...That is what the instruction stated...

On the petition, the Governor did respond...

"This unwarranted recall effort will cost CA taxpayers 81 million dollars! It is being pushed by political extremists supporting President Trump's hateful attacks on CA."

What? "Hateful attacks on CA"? I don't understand what Governor Gavin is talking about...

I guess Governor Gavin's strategy is to make Trump an issue...Really? The issue should be how he handled COVID...

Some of the people who signed the letter asking me to support recall...Former LA DA Steve Cooley...Former LA County Supervisor Mike Antonovich...John Cox...Former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer...

I got the letter.
I have previously signed the petition.
I hope they get a good response.

How come Californians get to recall their guv?

[Publius]

Because Gov. Hiram Johnson, a Republican, established government by initiative, referendum and recall in the years before World War I. It's in the state constitution.

Johnson was TR's running mate for the Bull Moose Party in 1912.

[GOP Poet]

I did get it.

[HighSierra5]

I sent it off. Problem is that you’ll have to use a crowbar to pry him outta there

[olivia3boys]

Yes, but I had already signed and gathered 8 other signatures.

There was a time when California had sane politics and the people voted in a measure to allow recalls in case we got a terrible governor like Gavin Newsom.

Hopefully this time it works out better than getting Arnold (though he was better than most of the commies who get elected in CA).

[olivia3boys]

Recalls work when some % of people who voted for that candidate originally change their minds.

I can tell you that many, many parents of CA high school athletes have now changed their minds. Some have admitted as much in my private Facebook groups dedicated to reopening schools and sports. CA is one of only 10 states which didn’t have a fall season. Peoples’ eyes have now been opened to the power of the CA teachers’ unions. They are more powerful than even the governor. They may not vote GOP but they are getting a lesson on the reality of who really controls CA. Teachers are a protected class.

Our district’s union used to say #ForTheStudents when asking for more bonds and $$. Parents now know that was a lie. (I’ve known it for years of course but many Californians in the past naively supported teachers and unions—no more).

Recall Newsom recall petition can also be downloaded.

Recall Newsom (70% 1.14.21, deadline March 10)

Speaking of recall elections, patriots need to work with their respective state lawmakers to amend state constitutions as follows.

• State constitutions need to be amended to put time limits on quarantines.

• State constitutions also need to be amended to make state health officials elected by popular vote.

• Constitutionally time-limited quarantines need to automatically trigger special recall elections for governors, mayors and health officials who order quarantines.

• Finally, constitutions need to require people planning to run for state and local offices to escrow a refundable "recall deposit" before becoming a candidate, the deposit fully paying in advance for their possible recall elections if they are elected, amounts determined by law.

We haven’t, but the wife and I signed a recall petition last month.

[Arones]

I got it. My wife and I signed and we sent it in.

Recall this adulterous bastard. California was once a beautiful state, then demoncrats took over. It is a basket case now, begging for money. This adulterous bastard is to blame. Recall the SOB.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

I am asking people who live in CA...Did you get the letter yet?

Nope, haven't gotten it yet. If I get it, I'll gladly sign it. Newsom is the worst CA governor of my lifetime, and given the stiff competition that's saying a lot.

[married21]

We received it. We had already signed the petition in person a few weeks ago.

Our district’s union used to say #ForTheStudents when asking for more bonds and $$. Parents now know that was a lie. (I’ve known it for years of course but many Californians in the past naively supported teachers and unions—no more).

It is very frustrating when some people support some issue just because the teacher's union is for it...Come on, people...Union's number one job is protect pay and benefits...

I heard Governor Gavin talk about his new budget...He talked about "safely" reopening schools...What?

I thought the teachers' unions wanted CA schools shut down until September...

[ridesthemiles]

WHICH SEPTEMBER??????????

[L.A.Justice]

September of this year...

A school board member, from a suburban district, spoke to LA County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl about school closures...The supervisor told her that schools should not reopen until fall of this year...

I have a feeling that Kuehl and unions are on the same page about school closures...
