How Gavin Nuisance Beat the Recall
Gov. Gavin Newsom survived an effort to remove him from office as more than 60% of California voters cast their ballots for “No” on the recall.
The majority
know Gavin Nuisance is a criminal, so why did he survive the recall? Because of
mail in ballots, and Drop Boxes. I knew he would win by fraud before the
election.
However, I learned
about some other reasons that contributed from https://www.hjta.org/news-events/taxing-times-online-winter-2021-22/recall-fails-initiatives-ahead/
The outcome
of that question made the choice of a replacement candidate irrelevant.
However, among voters who expressed a preference on question 2, the top two
candidates were Republican Larry Elder, with nearly 50% of the vote, and
Democrat Kevin Paffrath at about 10%.
Newsom’s
campaign raised in excess of $70 million to fight off the effort to oust him.
The governor’s anti-recall committee was able to raise unlimited contributions
from supporters because, under the state’s campaign finance laws, a recall is a
ballot question, different from a candidate’s campaign for office. The
replacement candidates’ campaigns were subject to campaign finance limits.
Despite this
and other advantages held by an officeholder facing a recall election in
California, some lawmakers are supporting changes to the state constitution to
make it more difficult for voters to exercise the power of recall, which state
voters have had since 1911.
Assembly
Member Marc Berman, D-Silicon Valley, and Senator Steve Glazer, D-Orinda,
announced even before all the votes were counted in the September 14 election
that they would seek legislation to weaken the people’s power of recall.
The
Democrats in California have enacted several corrupt laws from the Communist Manifesto,
however in November we the people can gut them:
The powers
of direct democracy will make their presence felt in the November 2022
election, judging by the number of initiatives filed with the attorney
general’s office. In addition to Howard Jarvis Tax Association’s Repeal the Death Tax Act (No.
21-0015), voters may see two school choice initiatives (No. 21-0011 and No.
21-0006A1) and three initiatives legalizing sports betting (No. 19-0029A1, No.
21-0009A1 and No. 21-0017). The “Local Land Use” initiative (No. 21-0016) would
reverse edicts from Sacramento that have ended single-family zoning. The “Water
Infrastructure Funding Act” (No. 21-0014) would earmark a percentage of the
state’s General Fund revenue for water projects to prevent summer water
shortages.
