It cost the taxpayers $276 million for the attempted recall in California!

Just imagine what that could have done for the homeless, COVID recovery, schools, roads, on and on, etc? The GOPers say that it was their duty to have Newsom recalled, but complained about not having enough money to pay for those issues? We know where their priorities are? It is about them having and grabbing more power!

And money spent on these elections actually go into citizens pockets here. It does create jobs during election cycles. And we need all the opportunities we can get.

I get it in that we would like to have RW groups pay for this, but they did spend a TON of their own money, and again, it went into the pockets of California liberals.

They definitely didn't "own" the libs today. Great Job California for coming out to vote and put a cap in it. And the margin will be close to 30% possibly. (I hope)
