Who is this socialist goon running for the recall election? Or was that a joke? I see 2 socialist candidates listed on the Wikipedia page, Dennis Richter and David Moore. There's also a candidate for the California National Party, which is running on seceding the US. Oh I know my candidate now! VVV Thanks, I'll vote for him.

DaveWoo posted:Maybe I'm missing something here, but what exactly is the problem with that particular statement? There's several problems with it: 1) The delta variant has been shown to be transmissible even between two vaccinated people. Thankfully the vaccine continues to be effective in preventing mass deaths, but there remain breakthrough cases of vaccinated people being hospitalized or dying, as well as the effects of long-COVID. 2) The majority of unvaccinated Californians are children, many of whom are too young to get a vaccine even if they wanted. Since vaccinated adults can effectively transmit to children, encouraging the public to go unmasked is almost guaranteeing that every child will be infected, particularly with Newsom's push for in person instruction. A lot of horrifying but rare complications like MIS-C start piling up if you allow millions of children to get infected. It also appears that 5-15% of infected children suffer from long COVID, which includes loss of gray matter in the brain in the areas responsible for taste, smell, and memory. It's impossible to know at this stage the long term medical effects of COVID, but current studies show the short term effects are worse than lead poisoning. 3) Allowing the delta variant to spread through a partially vaccinated population creates the perfect evolutionary conditions for the virus to completely escape our current vaccines. Already the delta variant is virulent enough and sufficiently resistant to current vaccines that herd immunity cannot be achieved against it by vaccination alone. If this happens we'll be seeing surges of new variants and deadly outbreaks for years if not decades to come. I'm working on a statement and some ads for my gubernatorial campaign, calling for a zero COVID strategy. https://socialism2021.com

no hay camino posted:It seems to me that "Hispanic" is also a nebulous term including people from various origins and backgrounds from literally all of Latin America. It includes people of Mexican ancestry that have been here since before the US took over, poor undocumented workers from various countries that may not even speak Spanish but an indigenous language like Mixtec, affluent gusanos that fled from socialist-leaning countries like Bolivia or Venezuela or Cuba, H-1B knowledge workers from Mexico or Chile, a whole gamut of different types of people with different interests that may be competing. I think part of the problem when it comes to messaging is that our current political parties treat "Hispanic" like this one united thing and not a panorama of demographics.

Is there a limit on how many times a governor can be recalled during their term? We could have an election every year!

Newsom getting recalled would be pretty funny. Sucks about the lovely seat-filler we'd be stuck with for a year, but on the bright side the state legislature might start pretending to care about progressive causes again once there's a clear veto in the governor's mansion. In conclusion, lol at this lovely state

Then again I know zero about Elder except that he’s on talk radio, which does give me a fairly clear picture I suppose. Very anti choice, wants to pass legislation that would push that agenda, thinks the minimum wage should be zero dollars to motivate work bootstrapping.

Elder wouldn't be able to pass any of his agenda even if he won: a successful recall does not eliminate the iron grip the dems have on the CA legislature. An Elder victory would at most mean a year and change of lovely executive decisions and horrible messaging. We would be absolutely hosed on the COVID front for sure.

An Elder victory would at most mean a year and change of lovely executive decisions and horrible messaging. We would be absolutely hosed on the COVID front for sure. I think the bigger long-term effect of a successful recall is that every Dem governor going forward will be constantly looking over their shoulder for a potential recall effort from the right, which will make passing meaningful progressive policy that much more difficult. Which is why I personally can't really get behind the whole "wouldn't it be funny if Gavin got recalled lol" thing.

The fact that the recall mechanism is allows your recall vote to count without a choice for sucessor is almost as dumb as this guy has the mandate with 15% of votes. Honestly Gavbot's missteps were dumb PR poo poo
