      Ballots are going out this week and you still see (accidental, it seems) misinformation like this. A voter who picks "no" on recall CAN vote for one of the alternative candidates. https://twitter.com/TitusNation/status/1425496848647692295 …

      Every person I have explained the recall rules to goes "wait, really?" Conservatives are fired up about a radio talk show host becoming governor with maybe 15-20% of the vote, which many voters don't realize is possible!

          You would think after recalling like every other governor, Californians would be intimately aware of the details of the process.

          Democrats keep telling people to leave the second question empty. If elder wins it's on them.

          Replying to @daveweigel

          A problem with the laboratories of democracy is that most people are low-information and barely engaged, under the best of circumstances. Every variation from the standard—from recall elections to at-large races to basically everything about local gov primaries—baffles folks.

          America's nationalization of both politics, and journalism, has not helped the problem of much-varied state and local election practices leading to confusion

          How can one get involved in helping get the word out? Or anything? My anchor of sanity has been living in this state. This is my first election. I want to make sure we don’t mess it up.
