I thought about this, but they didn't all vote for Elder. There were some moderate conservatives on the ballot - so it's not all 100% bat shit fruit loops cuckoo crazy-beans.
The most fundemental mistake was taking polling at face value. All the "Newsom could lose this" narratives were based on the nearly-equal breakdown of "likely voters." WTF does that even mean, with California having gone over to 100% mail-in as a Pandemic measure?
"Let's give the last word to Newsom, instead of the pack of doofuses"I always thought the plural of Doofus is Doofii.I still think i may be right but don't really care - do you?
And another thing California needs to fix: some basic qualifications for running for Governor, other than having a lot of famous-for-nothing stepdaughters.
The folks who are measuring Trumpism's legs in 2022 and 2024 will most certainly be paying attention. The problem is, the GOP can't extricate itself from Trump - the loudest fringe won't let them and they have nothing at all to offer in its place.
The recall law should require that to recall a governor, the amount of signatures collected in favor should be greater than 50% of the average voter turnout.
The GOP is like a refuckingligion and donations to this "fraud" is like pitching into the collection plate to get to heaven.
The central tenet, I'd say.

My favorite take so far is that this recall makes Elders a big loser.
But if Fox offers jobs to all its viewers, who's gonna sit home yelling at the screen?
Voting for a Republican in these times is.

Shall we talk about Wyoming and its 600,000 residents and 2 Senate seats?
Lots of Latinx voters in SoCal. A sane conservative party could potentially appeal to them. Not these jamokes.
The Party of Fiscal Responsibility just wasted our taxpayer dollars.
