It's Time To Vote Again

First, you vote "yes" or "no" on Newsom being recalled. Then you vote for one of 46 candidates for governor if Newsom is removed. According to the Secretary of State to be a candidate for governor you had to pay $4,200 or gather 7,000 signatures to be on the ballot (I guess that's why we have 46 candidates). If you choose to write a positioning statement (Official Voters Guide) that's $9,800 extra. If there is a recall of the governor I think the new one will come from the 34 candidates who are in the GUIDE (so that's 12 I don't have to research). As a registered independent I will read the write-ups and choose a candidate regardless of their party.
