#1 "The people have awoken..."

More like, the Berserk Woke Madness has awakened the normal and reasonable tendencies latent within the majority.

#2 California is poorly managed and in terrible shape. What are the odds Newsom will be replaced? The rest of us outside of California end up paying for their mismanagement and corruption. Much of the recent COVID stimulus bill money will go to California and other poorly managed blue states. Its everyone's problem.

If successful, Californians might consider Pelosi, Schiff and others who need replaced.

#3 What are the odds the next CA guv will be any better than Newsom?

#4 I just hope this one is as entertaining as the Gray Davis recall in 2003.

#5 ^ Not good but we do what we can.

#7 John Cox lost by a considerable % to Newsom last time. He's spending a bunch on emails/ads, but he'd likely lose again. He needs to get out and let Faulconer or Grinnell go head to head with Newsom

#8 Faulconer might be the best we can do...if we can even do that well. It's a long shot either way.

#9 I shudder to think who the Dems will pick to win after the counting if Newsom loses, but signature verification may well be a very not-so-transparent process if I had to guess.

#10 There are scribes in Khalif Ornia,
dutifully forging signatures,
as we write.

You commented on the last election
under another comment,
this is but a continuation in miniature,
view Khalif Ornia as aview of the future.

#11 Here's another thing - they had the 1.5 million signatures what, five or six weeks ago? Why doesn't reaching a threshold automatically trigger an election in sixty days? What's the freaking holdup, so Newsom can stay in long enough to max out his pension?

#12 ^ to ensure it survives a challenge. Because only Democrat-recall petitions can be challenged

#13 #11, 12 Yes. Newsom's appartchikc will sample for legit signatures and throw out EVERY possible one they can. So you come in knowing that and gather as many above the required as possible
