Larry Elder, ‘Gracious in Defeat’: ‘We May Have Lost the Battle, but We Are Going to Win the War’
Breitbart ^ | 09/15/2021 | Joel B Pollack

Conservative talk radio host Larry Elder told supporters to be “gracious in defeat” as he conceded the results of the recall election on Tuesday night, which Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) won in a landslide, crushing an effort to unseat him.

As of Wednesday morning, the “no” vote led the “yes” vote by nearly two-to-one (64.2.% to 35.8%), a stunning result given that several polls of likely California voters in late July showed Newsom within the margin of error or even losing.

“We may have lost the battle, but we are going to win the war,” Elder told supporters, urging them to take heart that they had drawn attention to key issues like public school choice. Notably, he stopped short of congratulating Newsom himself

They used Dominion. Not hard to put 2 and 2 together . . .

Califorinia maybe should be though of as a Dominion-controlled stat instead of a Democratic-controlled state.

If the first question failed, the second didn't matter, so they saw no reason to vote on the second.

Newsom voters probably didn't even know who the Democrats running (or sort of running) were.

California Democrats were voting against Trump and Texas. They were going to vote against recall no matter how terrible Newsom was or how bad things were in the state.

The recall process in California now allows people to essentially vote twice: They get to vote for Gavin Newsom by voting against the recall and then they get to vote for another candidate.

It doesn’t follow that so many people would vote for Newsom and then not cast a second vote for a Democrat.

We’re assuming that and it may be true but all we have right now are anecdotal reports. That’s why independent audits are invaluable. In California I can’t imagine an election audit being allowed except through the dogged, expensive, and highly skilled use of lawsuits.

They cheat, we concede. Can't wait to vote for Trump to concede again. That's all it is anymore. Voting to concede to theft.

#1 Both plus having the media in the tank for the democrats.
The tv media people are insane as they see the homeless all around them and the destruction the democrats are doing yet nothing but positive news for them.

So now everything is fraud?

If they got away with it before, it's reasonable to think that they will do it again and unreasonable to think that they wouldn't.

Why risk fraud when the vast majority are Democrats?
CA isn’t remotely “purple”.

“I’m only wondering in 2024 will it still be covid or a new mystery virus that’s used as the excuse to shut everything down.”

Some other virus.

There was a story a week or so ago about some super bug that’s on its way that’s more everything than covid, ebola, Spanish flu, bubonic plague, etc, etc combined🙄

With the reasonable expectation of fraud, we don't know how people really voted.

Check the vote totals from the recall replacement election (which turned out to be just a “beauty contest” with the recall failing.) It looks like a MAJORITY of the voters voted for a Republican.

Yes they did, otherwise they’d almost certainly vote no on the recall itself which they did by 2 to 1.

Like most politicians, Elder did not present the facts in a graphical manner. He should have put together a ten point bullet point presentation on where CA is FUBAR. Instead, yak… yak… yak… conversations disappear like the fog when the sun comes out. People comprehend when they see and read.
