Ahhh, Tom. A fine man , indeed.

He'd make a fine Senator.

dp, I owe ya a semi-apology or thanks for correcting me earlier on another recall thread. I had posted yesterday, that if ya voted No on the first part of the Recall ballot, you couldn't then select a replacement candidate. While I still can't or haven;t yet located the exact language in the election code stating such, others have said the same thing.

It would seem to me that when you vote NO, that for all intents and purposes , you have made your selection of the candidate; ie the targeted official, and thus should not be allowed to also select a replacement, seems like doubledipping to me in a way. Oh, well.


I question the logic of it but who am I to argue with Hiram Johnson and the authors of the Recall legislation.

Here's the link: Section 11382 of the California Elections Code states: "No vote cast in the recall election shall be counted for any candidate unless the voter also voted for or against the recall of the officer sought to be recalled."
