Davis cannot resign now that the recall is in progress.

Well, technically Davis can resign, and Bustamante could become governor for a few weeks. But after the recall election took place, if a majority voted on the first question in favor recall, then the winner of the most votes among the replacement candidates would become the new governor.

The weird thing is that, under that scenario, the recall election would in effect be a question of whether to recall Bustamonte. However, he would still be listed as one of the replacement candidates in the event the recall passed.

Davis, however, does not have that luxury. He can't be a replacement candidate.

You are right.
