Former porn star Mary Carey files paperwork for California governor

KMBH

It's official, former adult entertainment star Mary Carey filed paperwork to enter the race for governor of California.

She joins the crowded field that also includes another celebrity, Caitlyn Jenner, along with former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, and previous candidate, John Cox, to name a few.

Carey has been endorsed by the Huslter/Déjà Vu chain and will once again be feature dancing at The Hustler and Déjà Vu clubs.

Déjà vu may also refer to Carey’s return to the world of politics since this is not her first time.

She also ran for governor of California in the 2003 recall election and placed 10th out of a field of over 130 candidates.

Gavin is NOT going to be recalled. This is a total waste of the taxpayers' money.

interested in the recall. The advantage we have is that there are a lot more Democrats in California than republicans, and Democrats getting out the vote will be the answer. Not assuming anything.

Many do not realize that this is I think the republicans 6th attempt to recall Newsom. It failed the other times because they could not get enough signatures. The only reason it succeeded this time, was because a judge ruled they could extend the deadline to get enough signatures because of the pandemic.

I have been pushing friends and family not to take anything for granted, and vote early against the recall.

This recall will cost the state millions of dollars, and the next election for Governor is November 2022. It is a reckless example of republican hubris.

If the recall is rejected, which I think it will be, by a large margin, I think that will bode well for us in 2022.

Was that she would install cameras in the governor's mansion and walk around naked as much as possible, and you could watch on a pay website. She was also going to make it legal to own ferrets so I supported her on that.

Kristin Davis actively campaigned while out of probation. Guess who was bankrolling her candidacy? No less than Roger Stone. Yeah, THAT Roger Stone.

"Finally," she declares, "a politician you want to be screwed by!!!"

She also lays claim to being a perfect politician, as she has plenty of experience changing positions in front of the camera.

All told, chances are good this story has a happy ending.

It will be hard to beat 154 candidates including Gary Coleman, Mary Carey, Gallagher, Angelyne and Larry Flynt.
