Libertarians Resolve to Recall Davis
ONTARIO, CA --
The Libertarian Party of California has become the first political party to officially endorse the recall of Governor Gray Davis. At their state convention, held over the President's Day weekend in Ontario, the party passed a resolution to support the effort to remove the beleaguered California governor, who enters his second term with an approval rating of 24 percent.
The recall, as authorized by the California Constitution, requires collecting almost 900,000 petitioner's signatures. The daunting task, if successful, would be unprecedented and would exceed even the victory voters achieved with the passage of landmark Proposition 13, whose 25th anniversary taxpayers will celebrate this year.
The Libertarian Party of California recognizes that a successful recall of Governor Davis will require a statewide grass-roots, non-partisan movement. Nevertheless, the group's next step in active support of the recall drive will be to call on other political parties to join them, beginning with the California Republican Party which holds its own convention this coming weekend, February 21-23.
The Libertarian Party will send their newly elected Secretary, Lori Adasiewicz, to address the GOP delegates and entreat them to back the endeavor. Ms. Adasiewicz was chosen by the Libertarians to deliver their message as an invited guest of California Republican Party Chairman Shawn Steel, Esq. who visited the Libertarian convention last Sunday and witnessed the adoption of the resolution to recall Davis.
Kaloogian should be on near the end I believe - sometime around 1:30 - 2:00 EST!
I think you will agree he is a more articulate spokesperson for the Recall Gray Davis effort than Mr. Costa who is a GREAT taxpayers advocate but a lousy spokesperson or media representative.
