Election Center calls it for Newsom!





The Election Center
@ElectionCenter_
Projection:
Incumbent Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom is the Projected Winner in the California Governor Recall. "No" on the recall to remove Gavin Newsom will defeat "Yes." Question 2 on who will replace is now null and void.

are NO! by a wide margin. Not even close. The GQP should have to pay for this, not the taxpayers.

I knew it this afternoon when I dropped my ballot off and spoke with the poll workers and they said that a lot of people voted which is always good for Dems.

won in 2018.

There will have to be changes to this BS. They’re going to have to increase the signature numbers to get a recall vote. This is ridiculous that 2million signatures can play this pathetic game.

I’m sick of these sore losers trying to recall our duly elected governor.
It’s so maddening.

Just the thought that The governor could receive 49.9% of the vote, yet some random person with 20% could become governor.
This is a broken system.

The question that co fronts them: how do you lose but NOT accept that you’re a loser? You sure don’t concede or don the mantle of “vanquished” and swallow your bitter medicine. They seem to want to just avoid reality when they don’t like it, instead of accepting the lesson being presented and learn AND GROW - AND CHANGE - so you become a more realistic alternative.

But when you can’t even admit, much less accept, that you’re on the wrong track, you’re gonna get yer ass handed to you by a majority of voters.
