11. Out of state energy markets illegally manipulated power flow to California to increase prices.

People blamed Davis (?) and Arnold was elected with about one third of the vote.

The marketers then foolishly detailed exactly how they manipulated the markets in a report to their lawyers. Having received an admission of guilt, their lawyers could no longer enter a not-guilty plea for the marketers. I would like to take this moment to remind everyone that people who work in finance are generally more greedy than intelligent. I have had a great deal of experience with them, and they were, in general, the stupidest professional people I have ever met.

But the mob reacted before the investigation was complete. Which is exactly why recall elections are BAD.
