?CALIFORNIA! Your Governor is facing a recall election on September 14. Here’s what you need to know ⤵️⤵️

——

➡️ Governor Gavin Newsom is facing a Recall Election on September 14, 2021.

? Recalls have been part of California’s political system since 1911; allowing the public to attempt to remove elected officials from office before the end of their terms. In order for a recall election to be initiated, a certain number of voters must sign a recall petition within a specified amount of time.

? There’s just two questions on the ballot:

1️⃣ Question #1 “Shall Gavin Newsom be recalled from the Office of Governor?”

❌ A “no” vote keeps the Governor in office.

⭕️ A “yes” vote removes the Governor from office.

If more than 50% of people vote “no” on question 1 the governor will stay in office; If more than 50% of people vote “yes” he will be removed from office and replaced by whoever wins the most votes on Question 2.

2️⃣ Question #2 “Candidates to succeed Gavin Newsom as governor if he is recalled”

There are 46 candidates to choose from; Whoever has the most votes wins.

?? If you want the current Governor to remain in office vote “no” on question #1 and either ignore question #2 or vote for the person you’d like to see replace him should the recall succeed.

?? If you want the current Governor removed, vote “yes” on question #1 and vote for the person you’d like to see replace him should the recall succeed on question #2.
