Listening to Newsom GOTV Zoom call. Explaining why this is so important to vote the recall down

The leading opposition doesn’t believe in global warming, minimum wage, clean air, clean water, against a woman’s right to choose, and healthcare for everyone, etc

The principal organizer of this recall wants to micro chip immigrants. Outside republicans huckabee, grinrich, and trump supporters. Giuliani just joined in the recall effort

Ballots will be mailed out in a couple weeks, postage paid to all registered voters. No excuse for not voting

but know in an off year, off month election they stand a much better chance due to only GOP even giving a fuck about a recall vote.

The judge that allowed basically endless time to get the signatures was the major problem here. Basically the fix was in.

Hopefully the closer the election date comes the more the local media show cases the disaster facing voters if they ignore this special election. Larry Elders and his proposed 0$ minimum wage! Holy fuck, conservatives are crazy.

We gotta get the word out. I've only seen that one ad with Liz Warren.

What kind of nonsense are you trying to stir up?

Are you from California?
