Interesting. In the months leading to the recall election the media was in full blown panic mode the recall might succeed. Then as it approached their polls conveniently showed the lead "Yes" had was shrinking just in time for the vote. There was actually an article from within the last week where a Democratic official declared the race over. I won't claim fraud until I see some proof but if there was fraud the media covered for the fraudsters perfectly.

I figured the Republicans were just no shows since they only had 54% of the turnout they had in 2020, but the dem turnout for this one looked about the same. I'd hoped Californians had gotten sick and tired of the Covid junk, failing infrastructure, rampant homeless and drug problems....guess I shouldn't have expected that!

Well, it could be what they tried to do to Trump -- it's just hard to do when he's pulling 40+K on a day's notice anywhere he goes.

I'm convinced it is rigged from top to bottom. It all comes down to who counts the ballots. If you have mostly dems counting the ballots then dems will win all important races.

The system could be built to allow for external audits (directly by citizens) using encryption and various other technologies but they simply don't allow those systems to be implemented.

The most unrealistic part of your post is that they'll wait until next year

Wouldn't be surprised if Newsom announce it in his next announcement.

Not surprised. My guess is this basically just gave Newsom a mandate to do whatever the heck he wants.

Which is why Newsome initiated his own recall in the first place... Go read the Declaration of Independence

Voting is real... Right? RIGHT? ha ha I bet Newsome and Co. Secretly started and promoted this recall event . So confident in their ability to cheat that this is actually done to bolster their position.

California needs to read the Declaration of Independence... Just sayin'

Oh there was fraud? I heard that some were saying it showed they had already voted. I just assumed that California is just Uber left wing

There definitely was atleast a large heaping of fraud but California is sadly uber left wing at its core.

The Bay Area will vote for anyone to stop a Republican from taking office.

Newsom will be so emboldened since he survived.

California conservatives should move out asap and fortify red states like Florida, Texas, North Carolina or help win swing states like Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
