They're taking it out on any governor in their sight. California joins Maryland and Massachusetts. But notice we've taken the governorships in Wyoming, Oklahoma, and Kansas in the last year.

Another thing. 72% of voters dislike Davis, but only 54% or so voted to recall him. The democrats are still the party calling the shots in California in the long run, and to see Davis run close despite his being as popular as Nixon on the day of his resignation is heartening.
