Larry Elder Rallies at California Megachurch Ahead of Recall Election

Republican candidate Larry Elder on Sunday attended the prominent non-denominational Influence Church in Anaheim, California—one of his final stops on the campaign trail to become the state's next governor ahead of Tuesday's recall election.

Since he announced his candidacy in July, Elder, a talk radio host, courted his conservative base at several large evangelical churches across the Golden State. On Sunday, those same churches once again reminded congregants to cast their vote in what they see as a crucial election.

In his remarks, Elder addressed the state's rising homeless population, poor public school systems, water and fire management problems, rolling blackouts, and escalating and unaffordable cost of living, and followed a sermon by the church's pastor, Josh Hotsenpiller.

"People are leaving, crime is up, homelessness is up – there's no area where I believe this man has done a good job," said Elder of Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom, noting that the incumbent oversaw the release of 12,000 prisoners during his term.

And I'm sure there'll be even more homeless if you take over.

Sounds like a church that abuses it's tax free status.

literally preaching to the choir. Those people weren't going to vote no on the recall anyway.
