A federal lawsuit is seeking to put end to or change the upcoming California recall election hoping to oust incumbent governor Gavin Newsom.
The Hill reports:
At issue is how the recall ballot is structured. Voters will be asked two questions: whether Newsom should be recalled, and which candidate should replace him if he is recalled. Newsom’s name is not currently allowed to appear on the second question as a candidate.
The lawsuit argues that Newsom could receive more votes than any other candidate, but still be removed from office and replaced with someone who received fewer votes. The California Democratic Party is urging voters to cast their ballot against the recall, while leaving the second question about a potential replacement for Newsom blank.
“Thus, although Gov. Newsom could receive more votes against his recall on issue 1, still a candidate who seeks to replace him and who receives fewer votes could be chosen to be Governor,” the lawsuit reads.
The lawsuit says that would violate the Constitution’s Equal Protection clause.
“This process is violative of the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment, because it flies in the face of the federal legal principle of ‘one person, one vote,’ and gives to voters who vote to recall the Governor two votes – one to remove him and one to select a successor, but limits to only one vote the franchise of those who vote to retain him and that he not be recalled, so that a person who votes for recall has twice as many votes as a person who votes against recall,” it reads.
The recall election is set to take place on Sept. 14th. So far, Republican challenger Larry Elder is leading in some polls against the Democrat governor.
wpDiscuz
Newsom is a dishonest lowlife, i.e. a typical Democrat. Throw the Bum out.
That’s their argument? if the first question wins then the second question doesn’t matter. will be a slam dunk at the supreme court or any other except for the 9th
The democrat scum are now trying to steal the re-call. Tell me it is NOT time for Civil War II.
See another way to steal an election pieces of shit
IF THEY TRY THE “mail in steal” again We must demand a full account of the vote and throw out all the illegal alien votes—and send people that register them tp PRISON.
All the Left Wing (Marxists) Swamp Creatures has gathered together Millions to save ONE OF THEIR OWN–a FELLOW TRAVELER.

nuisance newsum has a lot of china money and his cousin supports the triad in china town! These scum bags need to go and put in prison for their part in destroying our America. Flush all democrat communist cult party members down the toilet and put them through a mulcher!
The Lawsuit outlines how He is a Socialist Democrats, which places Him above the Law!
Truly amazing that someone hasn’t shot this pos.
Don’t give up! The tyrant Newsome will become emboldened if you throw in the towel! Vote him out!
This frivolous law suit needs to be thrown out of court.
Why?
Because if you vote to recall Newsom, it is a non-vote and entitles you to vote for another candidate.
If you vote not to recall Newsom, you are actually casting a vote for Newsom to remain as governor.
“Thus, although Gov. Newsom could receive more votes against his recall on issue 1, still a candidate who seeks to replace him and who receives fewer votes could be chosen to be Governor,” the lawsuit reads.
That is an out and out lie.
Another reason why this suit needs to be thrown out of court is it was filed in the Federal Court system and the case is clearly about a state election. This is purely a state issue.
There have been 11 recall elections in California since 1913. Only 6 of those recalls were successful in recalling an elected official, and only one of those successfully recalled a governor (Gray Davis, 2003).
Goon needs to go NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
