How are you planning to vote in the recall? [View all]

Of course, I'm voting to keep Newsom, but I also have to pick a replacement. Stephanie Miller keeps talking about a talk radio host who sounds awful. I'd like to make sure it isn't him.

The Second Vote Doesn't Matter SoCalDavidS Aug 2021 #1

Not necessarily. Kevin Paffrath a Democrat can do it if the recall passes JohnSJ Aug 2021 #8

And What Is Kevin Polling At? SoCalDavidS Aug 2021 #11

If you look at the link I supplied above he has 27% of the vote, leading Elder by 4 points JohnSJ Aug 2021 #22

Isn't the OP wrong? There are two entries on the ballot. brush Aug 2021 #18

That's what I thought wryter2000 Aug 2021 #29

The item is "No" on the recall of Newsom. Understand? brush Aug 2021 #34

If you vote no on recall why would you vote on someone to replace him? brush Aug 2021 #35

Sorry. I couldn't resist. You are of course right. brush Aug 2021 #55

I believe you can vote No on Newsom's recall Zorro Aug 2021 #33

Why would you do that? You want him to stay but will give a vote... brush Aug 2021 #36

Nothing wrong with voting on the second part Zorro Aug 2021 #41

Odd way of looking at it. Voting "NO" is franchising yourself. brush Aug 2021 #43

That is incorrect. Mr.Bill Aug 2021 #42

Feinstein needs to resign NOW MontanaMama Aug 2021 #3

No she doesn't, and the 2022 election will set things right. She isn't going to go away anymore JohnSJ Aug 2021 #5

Agreed. I've sent a couple nicely worded email to her staff but at this point have lost patience Merlot Aug 2021 #6

If Newsom was recalled, Mr.Bill Aug 2021 #7

Yup. We have a super majority, and can do just what Kentucky did. Newsom is NOT going to JohnSJ Aug 2021 #9

So why haven't they done anything to prevent such recalls? intrepidity Aug 2021 #10

It would require changing the state constitution. Mr.Bill Aug 2021 #13

I think I get it now.... chowder66 Aug 2021 #44

If you plan to vote for a candidate if the recall passes, which I don't think it will, JohnSJ Aug 2021 #4

Do you vote for a replacement even if you vote "No"? intrepidity Aug 2021 #12

Yes, you can. n/t Mr.Bill Aug 2021 #14

No. Just mail it in. It's a tricky ballot. Don't give vote to someone... brush Aug 2021 #39

I didn't say you should, Mr.Bill Aug 2021 #40

Sure. It won't count if the recall fails, and that is what we want, but if it doesn't fail I think JohnSJ Aug 2021 #16

I hope we Dems don't miscalculate intrepidity Aug 2021 #17

I don't think so. Newsom is as liberal as they come, so anyone using that logic doesn't know JohnSJ Aug 2021 #20

No. If you vote "NO", you're done. JUST MAIL IT IN. brush Aug 2021 #37

Would you please stop spreading disinformation The Mouth Aug 2021 #46

Ok. But IMO it's best to not give any vote to another candidate if... brush Aug 2021 #51

Well, anyone who wouldn't vote 'NO' shouldn't even *be* on this website The Mouth Aug 2021 #52

Actually I did retract. I said you were right about the second item, which I found out later. brush Aug 2021 #54

Can you suggest anyone else? quaint Aug 2021 #28

Just vote no on item 1 and don't worry about a secondary candidate JohnSJ Aug 2021 #30

See my post #44. chowder66 Aug 2021 #48

Both my husband and I will vote NO. CaliforniaPeggy Aug 2021 #15

Who might run? That is 2022, and if the recall is successful I think it is prudent to choose JohnSJ Aug 2021 #19

If you check "NO" you're done. Do not select someone else... brush Aug 2021 #21

Right, louslobbs Aug 2021 #25

I suggest just voting NO. If you vote on the second part... brush Aug 2021 #38

Just vote no. chowder66 Aug 2021 #49

YOU DO NOT PICK A REPLACEMENT if you vote "no." kysrsoze Aug 2021 #23

You can though. That's why it's confusing everyone but it's a moot point to choose anyone else. nt chowder66 Aug 2021 #50

We've been talking about this almost everyday in zoom calls the past week louslobbs Aug 2021 #24
