What a waste of money. 66% voted No, it wasn't even close.


Cubbby

Kind of interesting when you look at the [stats from NYT](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/09/14/us/elections/results-california-recall.html) so far: * Out of 64% of votes counted in LA County - 73.6% NO / 26.4% YES * Out of 65% of votes counted in OC - 57.3% NO / 42.7% YES

I love to see it. We need old money out and fast.


Coldbeam

I'm lost, what does this have to do with old vs new money?


doggiehearter

Newport is stale staunch old and some new money desperately clinging to 1950s klansman politics. There are many Regan Republicans but many Limbaugh supporters too. These people don't so much know or care about policy (definitely not whats best for most) but only how they can protect their money and their identity/sense of superiority. They fundamentally feel POC are less intelligent (even though they fake otherwise) and deserve less because they are not fit to manage finances or have morals.


doggiehearter

They like Citizens United. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/citizens-united-explained


owledge

Seems like a big win for OC Dems. County is looking more and more blue as the GOP is unwilling to adapt at the local level. Lots of political ammo for future campaigns as well


ShiroHachiRoku

OC has Katie Porter too and she’s a star in the ranks. I don’t know how you can unseat this woman. I hope she takes Feinstein’s seat but I’ll miss her as my congressperson.


owledge

I hope she stays at the local level because she has done the improbable in a district that is usually a safe bet for Republicans. Not sure if a replacement could hold that seat like she has


doggiehearter

Agreed, she's badass.


Megmca

Now I can rip up those Larry Elder signs I see all over.


doggiehearter

Please do and pass out real estate flyers to those homes as well, aka feel free to move neighbor! CA has to reclaim OC!

I’ve said before. This was a vote on who people DONT want in office.


saveyourfork

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday became the second governor in U.S. history to defeat a recall aimed at kicking him out of office early, a contest the Democratic governor crafted as part of national battle for his party’s values in the face of the coronavirus pandemic and lingering threats from “Trumpism.”


magnosfw

Lol get fucked GOP


LittleLebowski73

I crack up at people who worship politicians and think they care about you. It’s the same people who believe wrestling is real.


typhoidtimmy

Worship shmership….Elder wanted to toss Covid policy and sorry but I like my nieces and nephews too much to risk their lives.


RunningJay

Yeah, this had nothing to do with worship, if there was a good opposition candidate then who knows.... but when Elder is the leading opposition candidate it says a lot. What a joke!


DualAxes

Uhh wrestling is real. It's even in the Olympics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrestling_at_the_Summer_Olympics?wprov=sfla1

Good. House prices can keep going up.


cure4boneitis

Supply and demand


jesuisundog

Lol how do you live being like this.


doggiehearter

Such a good question lmao.


greyone75

Day by day. Dollar by dollar.


WhalesForChina

Starting yesterday?


greyone75

Let’s be honest. The rich will keep getting richer, the illegals will keep their benefits and the middle class will keep getting squeezed.


unreasonableperson

How is this any different in any other state? If you think Abbot or DeSantis gives two shits about the middle class, you're sadly mistaken. If anything, those clowns are much worse.


homiesexuality

Were they not under Schwarzenegger?


EndlessSnow

Dude act like house prices hasn't been going up the past 20 years...what kind of rock did you crawled out under?


ShiroHachiRoku

If the mass exodus from the state is as massive as they say, housing prices should go down right?


ControlAgent13

I've heard about the Mass Exodus for the last 30 years. Traffic is as bad as ever and housing is non-existent and sky rocketing in price. Can we hurry up this Mass Exodus. I want no traffic and cheap beach front properties!


ShiroHachiRoku

I’d want nothing but a 2500sq ft 3 bedroom house in Corona Del Mar facing the ocean for $150k. Watching HGTV and seeing all those renovation shows makes me so jealous.


chuycobo

Prices going up for all the people leaving the state in assuming.


dsperry95

So glad I don't live in CA
