Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
Ronald Reagan
Not at all surprising in a state that loves ballot harvesting, mass mail in balloting, and virtually no election safeguards.
Postal workers (with keys) stealing mail-in ballots right out of big mailboxes, hundreds of people (mostly Republicans) showing up at polls and being told, “you’ve already voted”, ballots designed to obscure Larry’s name so they have to be “hand-counted”, plus the election machinery in 90% of the state being in Democrat hands...
I could go on, but you get the idea. Realistically, there was never more than a very faint chance that Larry would win. But, hey! It was fun giving the Rats conniption fits. Ya gotta take your humor where you can find it these days.
Well knock me over with a feather.
Widest margin= best fraud machine
Sort of pointless - wait 2 or 3 weeks to see the final margin and precinct results. It’s a big state and we need to know where the Stupid Party is making gains that could help Congressional candidates in ‘22.
“Election”. BS.
That’s the key. The state as a whole is looking gone.
I think the only cure for california is get rid of seret ballots...the fact that after the vote you cant check the count is the reason why they get away with there fraud.
I haven’t even paid attention, nothing was going to change.
LOOONG GONE.
Only if we could cordon them off from the rest of the country with razor wire atop 20 foot fences. Otherwise, Commifornia becomes a communicable infection.
Old saying that bears repeating:
“You can’t beat a crook at his own game.”
My own observation:
You need to change the game. Clean up the election process.
Maybe there is some court process that can give relief. I suspect someone will try.
Appears to not even be close. Hundreds of millions of dollars poured in to successfully take the focus off the recall and Newsom himself - and of course a massive turnout push funded by this cash in the Dem strongholds, of which there are far more than GOP in that state, with mailed ballots unrequested with cars going around collecting the ballots in mass quantitites.
The Democrats were also smart this time not to put up their own prominent candidate. Last time around, Cruz Bustamente ran and it ended becoming an afterthought that Gray Davis was awful and should be recalled by a majority including enough Democrats who had a viable candidate to also choose to vote to replace, and then the race was mainly between Schwarzeneggar and Bustamente. Gray Davis should go - now who should replace him was the narrative which shaped the race.
This time, that dynamic did not exist with only token Democrats running. The race was cast as a vote against “right wing extremism” to vote against recall by the entire media as well as the massive campaign spending, and whatever steam it had fizzled out as it was no longer a referendum on Newsom with the main battle being who should be the replacement...it was all “Elder is a right wing nutcase” all the time.
RE: Appears to not even be close.
Stick a knife to California, the state is a lost cause.
LMAO and I expect the midterms and 2024 to be the same. I rant but don’t get mad anymore. I am simply at zero fvks given.
Proposed 28th Amendment: a mechanism to remove states from the union.
We just need 38 state legislatures to pass it (tell the red states they can use it to remove CA and the blue states they can use it to remove TX).
“I haven’t even paid attention, nothing was going to change.”
Same here. The only thing that’s going to change is Gruesome and the Rats are going to be even more emboldened. So this will backfire big time for the republicans.
