He won't. He fled California to get away from their tax regime. It would cost him many billions to become a resident of California again.

Interesting idea though. Would be ballsy as fuck. Yes, toast.

So if this recall goes through. Does Newscum get to run again vs. whoever? I recall Davis didn't but he was falsely accused of murdering some young lady and not an asshoe like Newscum.

California's next Governor will be a YouTube star.

Why would he waste time on CA, better odds of making Mars productive.

He is not allowed to be on the ballot.

After clearing the 1.5MM signature hurdle, the mechanics of the recall vote are that you vote Yes/No on if the governor should be recalled (simple majority vote here) and then you also vote for a replacement candidate in the event that the recall vote is successful. You get to vote for a replacement candidate even if you voted to not recall. There may be dozens of candidates and whichever one gets the plurality (i.e.: more than any other, but not necessarily a majority of the votes) wins. Newsom is not allowed to run.

I wonder if the Yes/No part will be close. If there's a clear frontrunner among the contenders, then that frontrunner may sway the Yes/No vote one way or the other.

It would be more fun if those who voted No are not allowed to vote for a replacement. Alas, the setup isn't designed for fun. Oh well.

Full Idiocracy....

It’s likely to be someone with name recognition. Just like last time. Enough people wanted the Governator that he got the plurality.

This is why Elon is perfect for this. Name recognition galore.

Also he was opposing the lockdown BS and turned out to be right.

Also two biggest issues in CA - (1) EDD delaying/denying UE benefits to working people and (2) same EDD paying out north of $60B to crooks/inmates - is, at its core, an IT problem and Musk is the perfect guy to right that ship in a short time. Fucking newsomites love to whine how this is not his fault because he's been Governor only for two years, but two years in Elon's time is fucking ages. Look where SpaceX was 2 years ago and where it's now. Compared to that a SW system doling out UE bennies and cross-checking against inmate records is fucking trivial.

Next, education: he will not be beholden to the fucking teacher's union and he knows a thing of two about skillset needed to compete in a modern economy.

And he's not Republican meaning that these fucks won't be able to use TDS against him.

Fuck, I practically wrote his program. He should totally run and stomp fucking donkeys into mud.

Trump should run... just because.

Nah, too much TDS in CA.

If (the royalty formerly known as Prince) Harry was naturalized by November, I'd vote for him. Just because...

Elon Musk would be wasted as a mere politician.
Running Commiefornia for eight years absolutely ruined Arnold. I don’t think we can take that kind of risk with Elon. He needs to keep solving real problems. Let someone else fix California.

He can solve the most obvios shit in the remainder of Gayin's term and not seek re-election. This would be enough to bury fucking Newsom as a politician.

And being ridiculously rich, he's not beholden to any person or group at all.

John Cox got 38% of the vote in the 2018 election and is already running ads for the recall.

Unless the Dems have their shit together and only run one candidate, it’s only gonna take 25% to win this thing I think.

Until the voting is stopped to allow Orange County style vote harvesting and after hours ballot dumps.

Good observation. It’ll only take one candidate with good name recognition and 38.% of the vote should be plenty to get a plurality

Keep in mind we’re still the state that elects very evil people like Evan Lpw and Richard Pan to our assembly and Senate. These people actively want to remove individual rights and freedoms.

That guy can multitask like nobody else. I mean, look at all the shit he's juggling simultaneously: Tesla, SpaceX, SolarCity, StarLink, The Boring Co....
