I'm with this commenter. I'm not going to be held hostage by the party's unwillingness to put a viable back-up candidate on the ballot. They had Bustamante-Cruz when Grey Davis got recalled. They stuck their heads in the sand and tried to laugh the recall away this time.

I also have a "Don't blame me, I voted for KDL" T-shirt I wear whenever Feinstein does something cringeworthy. Unlike our senior senator, I sadly can't forget her weekly mis-steps and gaffes.

I understand the sentiment, but recalling Newsom will 100% make things worse so why go there?

It clears the field in 2022 for a different Dem, who hopefully won't view the office as a stepping stone for a presidential run. I'd love someone who's not mismanaging the state forest service, flaunting their own advice/rules on the pandemic (French Laundry, schools, camp).

Newsom, Harris and Feinstein are all products of the current party machine. None are going to run. Garcetti is super unpopular and on his way to be ambassador. Let's us get someone new, who's hopefully better on issues for the 99%.

I'm willing to trade a stub year of Larry Elder for that. Let the legislature hold him in check. I'm tired of being asked to continually support mediocre officials like Newsom in the name of saving democracy or whatever they text me about the recall.

Let's see them fix Prop 13, the housing crisis or school performance first. Then I'll vote no on the recall.

Folks who vote no on the recall also need to finish the ballot and vote for Kevin.pic.twitter.com/nYqLG5QPIf

Is he really a Democrat though? His policy platform is as unrealistic as the average GOP one https://www.ocregister.com/2021/08/07/who-the-heck-is-kevin-paffrath-recall-might-make-him-governor …pic.twitter.com/KjHN9g1J9k
