It's gonna be another "Ok, you guys have worked hard enough for today. Go home and we'll finish counting."
Our boy Larry The Egged is going to come out of the gate real strong, but somewhere between the hours of 10PM and 4AM PST, statistically impossible but miraculous discontinuities will manifest in Tupac Fanboi's tally.
If anyone manages to get a hold of the data, we'll be treated to a lovely side of Benford's Law irregularities so massive that they'll put Iran and North Korea to shame.
Anyone have any white pills for me?
Local news is expecting 60% to vote no on the recall so I don't think that's gonna happen. It'll be immediately obvious that Newsom isn't going to be recalled.
They believe it's not even going to be close because since the last recall, Democrats have enrolled 4 million additional voters, compared to 20,000 for Republicans. Of course this ignores independents and Democrats who don't regurgitate opinions from Twitter and tv.
Well they've fortified things now to prevent that from happening again...
I know I'm smoking copium here but humor me for a minute: national news was predicting a landslide for Shillary back in `16, no? Don't they always have to say they're gonna win?
As a San Diegan, I am quietly crossing my fingers and hoping for this.
With so much fear and distortion in the air, though, it's hard to really know, my only real point of optimism is the enthusiasm gap that polling showed a month ago when I think they were more trustworthy. What sucks about games being played with elections is that what's supposed to be conventional election wisdom has to be thrown out of the window because of Dumb Bullshit that Breaks the Rules.
We shall see.
I'm worried about insta lockdowns the second this recall goes by.
That said, I'm just not gonna participate. The cops don't want to enforce it either. Businesses will stay open and the ones that don't, lol enjoy no business anymore.
That doesnt really matter as much as you might think considering that Newsom has managed to piss off Dems to both his Left and his Right. More "conservative" Dems for being a hypocritical tyrant, and Left-Wingers for not being Left-Wing enough.
Another thing that would be worth pointing out is that the conservatives and populist in California have taken a "Two can play at that game" attitude toward things like ballet harvesting, and already used it to win back seats in 2020 that they lost in 2018. Now of course, the media and Dems (but I repeat myself) have been trying to spin it as "So they tried to stop this practice, but now you are using it? Hypocrites!" Because their too smooth brain to understand that most conservatives and populist outside of the Federal positions can see their bullshit. Because they made it political total war and a knife fight, and now they are shocked that the opposition are treating it like a knife fight. And are seemingly better at it in more local areas.
But before anyone says I am huffing copium, I will just say that I am expecting the worst, but hoping for the best. And all I can hope is that people sick of it all, especially Biden, decide they are going to give him the finger by dragging Newsom out to send a message.
I live in California and see a ton of "vote No on the recall" signs, more than the pro-recall signs, by about 3-1. Mostly in front of the houses of old, upper-middle class people.
Because putting a pro-recall sign up is most likely going to result in vandalism on your property.
Remember how leftists think and act.
Paid for by George Soros, no doubt.
I guess I cant really argue with that, after all I live in America (Kansas) and not the United Socialist State of California. The only window I have in is stuff from Dave Rubin, so all I can do is pray for the Hail Mary.
The local news is full of shit and has been for decades. I remember in 2016 my local news station trying to run a story about how people were lining up for blocks to go to a Hillary Clinton rally. I immediately got into my car to drive by and it was barely 100 people, if that.
