When your House Rep retires

The deadline is done. The ballots they could cure that needed curing, done. There were eleven names on the Super Tuesday ballot and one came out well ahead of the pack at 21.9% and the other two relatively well known names came in second.

At exactly, it has now been certified, the same number of votes.

Throw in all the voters for those eight other candidates who are now out of the race and there is no easily predictable winner in November at all.

If either Simitian or Low calls for a recount they pay the expenses, and it ain’t cheap–but get reimbursed. IF they win.

California law says the top two vote getters go on to the general, regardless of party. We have never had a threesome before.

Tell this to anyone who thinks their vote doesn’t count, because man does it ever.


p.s. On a random note: gerbils in an art museum. Just for fun.

Love the video. Maybe local news stations should show it on repeat 4-7pm daily 🙂

That is so crazy! I wonder how they’ll figure it out, if neither calls for a recount.

Nope,never heard of that happening. If no one challenges, do they put all 3 on the next ballot? The gerbil video is so fun! Thank you!
