Restaurants, recalls and resistance are giving California Gov. Gavin Newsom one of the worst months of his political career.
California held its presidential primary election on Super Tuesday, March 5, but it was far from super for the state’s ambitious governor. Voters showed more than a little resistance to passing the ballot measure Newsom had branded with his name and image in TV ads for which he had raised $20 million.
Given the razor-close outcome, what was really shocking was the amount spent to oppose the governor’s effort: nothing at all.

It passed (or will pass as the Democrat/Communists who rule the state will count ballots until their arms fall off until it passes) ... and that's all that matters.

Yep it will pass and 1 vote over is as good as a million even if that vote was printed two weeks after the election.

“California held its presidential primary election on Super Tuesday, March 5...”
And here it is the 17th and there are still some measures undecided. Where is the outrage for this example of electoral incompetence? Imagine if California’s Electoral votes were up for grabs this November? “Sorry, we can’t tell you who won the Presidency, you’ll have to give us more time.”

Do we not get to know which ballot measure this was?
To: Svartalfiar
Prop 1. That was the only proposition in the primary ballot.

Well those of us who don’t vote in CA have no idea how many or what Props they’re considering
To: Svartalfiar
It was some Bond Measure.
That’s all I recall.
Once I get to the word “bond” it’s a dead “NO,” no matter what.
