The Recall is On

With 1.95 million signatures in hand, the Recall campaign has announced an election to remove Gavin Newsom from office is now assured. Still, we’re aiming for 2 million by the March 17 deadline.

My friend Randy Economy, the Recall’s official spokesman, said it well: “One thing we want to let everybody know here, especially to the politicians across the street and the lobbyists that have destroyed California’s dream for decades and generations is that your game’s over. From now on, the people are in charge of California.”

For years, our state has been on a seemingly irreversible decline. This last year, Gavin Newsom brought that decline to a total freefall.

For years, our citizens have lost more and more freedom to Sacramento. This last year, we lost everything to a single person.

For years, the architecture of self-government has been dismantled, brick by brick. This last year, the entire edifice came crashing down.

But the people of California refused to remain trapped in the rubble. Disenfranchised and dispossessed, we fought back. We availed ourselves of a last remaining recourse, a tool that is simple yet powerful, an act that is rote yet revolutionary: writing your name in cursive on a piece of paper.

Thanks to the heroic efforts of countless volunteers – outside of Walmarts and Hobby Lobbys, at places of business and places of worship, through organized rallies and spontaneous encounters – those pieces of paper piled up on a breathtaking scale, turning a sea of discontent into a watershed for our democracy.

Signature by signature, you have built the greatest citizens’ movement California history. You have given us a chance to save our state. You have given us hope.

California is worth fighting for, and that fight is just getting started.

Join me in fighting for California

I'm not going to beat around the bush: I don't care.

California is a marxist shithole and has been for decades. They've infected Oregon, Washington, and are in the works to infect Nevada and Arizona as well, they have overall control of their circuit court, and their politics are cancer.

Newsome is the least worrying when it comes to policy. The best solution if you're in the region? Leave. Go spend $40K and get a 5 bedroom house in Southern Illinois or Arkansas. Get away from the toxic politics of the left coast. You'll be happier. Newsome is just a red herring to disguise the real problem.

impeachment is a waste of time but recalling a gov who wont be removed is thread worthy.

LOL

This is a colossal waste of time and it's the 6th? attempt on Newsom so fare. I have no doubt that there will be a recall election but he's going to obliterate his opponent.

i forget how long ago it was. we had a successful recall with gray davis, he wanted to save the rest of us with a triple car tax.

but if memory serves he also wanted to enforce minimum requirements for teachers and lol the teachers ended up leading the charge for the recall. I suppose the "teachers didnt like the idea of academics. :)

we ended up with arnold schwarzenegger as governor, to his credit he kept his promise and triple car tax was scrapped.

Because the cause for each is different.
