Problem is that the Big cities in this state, combined with the Union's stranglehold over all things political make it extremely hard to accomplish anything like ousting Newsome. The recent recall attempt was doing well for a while, then he marshalled his forces and outspent/crushed it. But after the recall failed, he signed a bunch of new legislation that he was holding on his desk, since a lot of it would further piss off a lot of us. He is a weasel, but has a ton of union/big city power behind him. The fear of a lot of us is that the Dems running the legislature are eying ways to get rid of Prop 13, which limits how much they can raise property taxes. If that ever happens, say goodbye to middle class home ownership (it's already becoming impossible). I am planning to leave because of that and the illegal "invasion" that is engulfing this part of the state.
