National Implications: A Larry Elder Victory in California Would Shift U.S. Senate Majority to Republicans
NOQ Report ^ | 09/04/2021 | JD Rucker

Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and the Biden-Harris regime are putting an immense amount of effort into the California recall election. But it’s not because they love Gavin Newsom so much or care about California politics. They’ve done the math and realize what a Newsom recall really means for them.

Republicans across the country should do the math as well and start helping to push the recall of one of the worst governors in the nation. According to Just The News:

Larry Elder said Friday that if he is elected California governor in the state recall of Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, he will replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) with a Republican.

Elder told the “Mark Levin Show” that George Soros, President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) are getting involved in the California recall election because they’re concerned about the balance of power in the Senate.

“All of these people are scared to death about one big thing,” Elder said. “They couldn’t care less about Gavin Newsom. They care about the 50-50 split in the Senate in Washington, D.C. And God forbid Gov. Elder should replace Dianne Feinstein – that nobody’s seen in weeks – and I’m told that she’s in worse mental condition than Joe Biden.

“They’re afraid I’m going to replace her with a Republican, which I most certainly would do, and that would be an earthquake in Washington, D.C.”

The 88-year-old senator from California told CNN that regardless of the recall election’s outcome, she will not step down from her seat and plans to serve out the rest of her term, which ends in 2025.

A California Democratic source said that others in the party are concerned, and “the right thing to do” would be for Feinstein to vacate her seat while Newsom is still governor and could appoint a replacement, since the recall “is looking like a closer election,” CNN reported.

As noted in the article, Feinstein is MIA and very likely on the verge of retirement from the U.S. Senate, whether forced or voluntary. If she leaves, the Governor of California at the time gets to select a replacement until the 2022 election.

If Elder wins and replaces Feinstein with a Republican, the GOP would enjoy a 51-49 majority in the Senate. They would oust Schumer as Senate Majority Leader and be able to block nearly everything the Democrats try to push for the next year-and-a-half.

The recall election isn’t just about California. The legislative fate of the nation could be determined by it. Democrats from across the country are fighting for Gavin Newsom. Does the RNC plan on showing up or will they sit out another important election?

He should have never mentioned that to Levin. This could backfire on him and cause diehard Democrats to come out en masse and vote for Newsome.

Feinstein can’t quit even if she wants to—the lobbyists have blackmail files on her that become worthless if she is not there.

Isn’t California also losing a Senate seat?

How can that be? Every state WILL have 2 senators regardless of how large or small they are. That is how this Republic was formed via our constitution.

It doesn’t matter, Elder isn’t going to win.
CA is so corrupt plus the hundreds of state agencies will block his agenda anyway.

Not as if the Rat Machine didn’t already know that.

Who knows. May help.

“ putting an immense amount of effort into the California recall election”
Or in other words, they are getting ready to dump a shitload of fake ballots and enacting every fraudulent tactic in the democrat ply book!

You’re right. Even if Elders gets 99.9999% of the actual vote, it will be a 50.0001 - 49.9999 squeaker in favor of Newsome.

Pole watchers will have one job. Stay put, and watch. No matter what happens, stay put. Watch everybody. See something, scream bloody murder about it. Take pictures. Set up distant surveillance of everything. And watch with out being intimidated.

Larry is delusional if he thinks his yes men did a damned thing to stop gruesome from stealing the election. Or that the republicant party would do anything to stop the steal. And then the same a-holes all over CONgress, fox, talk radio and here will keep saying “2022!” like it will matter.

Do you REALLY think the dem fraud machine will let Elder win regardless of what he says he’d do if Feinstein kicks the bucket or becomes comatose.

This is going to be the dems crème de la crème of stolen elections. Every dead voter will vote, every Dem ballot will be counted 5 times and every vote for Elder will be switched to Newsom. There will be a 100-150% turnout in LA and San Francisco in favor of Newsom, while Elder’s votes are skimmed into Newsom’s totals.

Auntie Nancy and Fox News will declare little snot Gavin the winner 10 minutes after the polls open.

Even if Elder were to win, wouldn’t Newsom appoint a replacement before he left? Or Romney would officially join the Democrats? Or would Murkowski’s price be lower? Or would Collins say, my bad, I meant to say I switched a long time ago?

Or a Republican senator would commit suicide with three shots to the back of the head?

Nice wrapup. Unfortunately it parallels reality far too closely.

Regardless I'm going to get out there and vote.

If Feinstein is dead, then Newsom could appoint a replacement before the recall happens. So why is Feinstein still alive? The dems had no problem assassinating Antonin Scalia, after all.
