Many Californians don’t know there’s a recall — that’s not good for Newsom(Is that happening on September 14th?)

The light was fading on what had been a breezy 101-degree afternoon by the time the two women with clipboards approached Ashley Reyes, who sat watching her son and his cousins play in her gated driveway.

Had she heard, the women wondered, about the election coming up on Sept. 14?

“No,” Reyes replied, a look of puzzled curiosity crossing her face. What election?

I saw this scene and many similar ones play out this month when I tagged along with Karen Diaz, 27, and Tanairy Guzman Reyes, 22, as they knocked on doors in Palmdale, a city north of Los Angeles. They were hoping to bolster support for Gov. Gavin Newsom as he faces an attempt to recall him from office.

Edgar Robleto, 62, who spoke with Diaz and Guzman Reyes through a metal screen door, said he wanted Newsom “gone.” Pandemic restrictions, he said, were “overboard,” and he’d lost work as a bus operator.

Doesn’t matter if they know or not. Someone else will be voting for them.

The whole thing is rigged.

isnt it “cute” how the controlled Pravda mass media
keeps pretending that it still matters how voters vote

I guess they have to keep up the fiction

Most Californians are on auto-pilot with regards to politics.

Mail in voting especially with these ballots, there are holes in the envelope which reveal if you voted “YES” so if you hand them to your mailman expect them to be thrown out

I think that depends on the county.

San Diego County did not have the holes placed where you can see.

Tell them all it is 9/21 or even in November so they shouldn’t worry about it.

Don't! I work with a local GOP committee and they have confirmed that drop off boxes are often compromised by ballot harvesters. Drop them off at your local registrar of voters (ROV) or better yet, vote at your local polling place.

LA Country ROV can be located here: https://lavote.net/contact-us/contact-us

Polling in person is also just as good.
