Truth Bomb by OVD : The California Recall election and what Newsome should do today
Hey Everyone,
If you haven't heard yet California is having a Governor's recall election. It's on Sept 14th. The rules are Newsome must get 51% or he's out and if he's out the next highest candidate wins. this is a stupid system as we might get stuck with an idiot Nazi republican with only 23% of the vote.
The other issue is Diane Feinstein is ill and may die(she's as old as dirt). She's the senior Senator and would be have to be replaced if she doesn't make it. That means the republicans could get the Senate back with 51 Senators if lets say Newsome fails and Elder wins. This is an issue they are both using to run(Newsome and Elder). This being an off year election gives Elder an even better chance to screw up both our State and or Nation.
Also Newsome is an asshole...not liked by many(I don't like him either as he's a sell out to Corporations over people). So a lot of folks won't bother voting as they don't like him either. This is what republicans are counting on.
So what could stop this....? well easy, Feinstein should resign today and Newsome should already have a replacement picked and replace her before the recall election. A) this avoids the republican getting the Senate 100% and legally and B) some of us that weren't voting might take this as Newsome doing a good job and actually vote. This is a really easy fix and if they don't do it...they deserve to lose. The problem is we all lose. This is why I hate the two party system. If there was a candidate that actually represented the people from a third party we'd have a reason to vote.
If Newsome does replace Feinstein in time I might re-register(The Democrats took me off the voting rolls twice now for voting for Bernie Sanders...yes just as corrupt as the republicans) and vote. But if they try and pressure us to vote...by not doing it...I will stay home. Fuck them. Also we need to recall Elder the second he wins. No one but a small group of Nazis want him. He'll be easy to recall. Just my 2 cents.
