I had a brilliant idea! What would happen if Pelosi was elected? Would she have to leave Congress to go sit as the governor? or would she have to make a choice between the two? How would that work?

She's basically governor right now. She's Newsom's aunt. Alot of people call her aunt Pelosi. We get to stick it to both of them! Rumor has it that Ric Grenell might run. 😁
She’s Newsom’s aunt?!
Yep
Yep! Newsom was mayor os San Francisco prior to governor. Corruption runs deep.
By marriage after his first wife left him for Donald Trump Jr.
By marriage apparently
I wouldn't mind seeing Adam Corolla give it a try. He sort of said he was leaning towards doing it on an episode of Dave Rubin. Funnily enough, Ric said he didn't want to. That could have just been for the show.
She doesn’t want to be governor. She wants inside trading info/fixing with zero responsibility over a failing state.
Fuck that noise California is red we just have dominion issues.
Ca is red say it with me!
Central CA: God’s Country
Isn't the goal to get Pelosi away from political power? It isn't about where she serves, it's about the fact she's there in the first place.
She does more damage in congress. plus they can run a second recall and get rid of her as governor.
This is a dumb idea since you can’t just recruit someone. She’d have to accept it.
They'd be without a governor then. Which means the left parts of the state would quickly fall farther into chaos as they need someone to tell them what to do and can't act without supervision.
She isn’t going to put herself on the ballot. Not enough people would write her in since nobody likes her. If someone won who didn’t want the office the runner up would probably take office or some other arrangement. So stop wasting energy on this nonsense.
What is a Leutennant Governor, Alex?
Also, this recall is just to secure the question of "should Gavin Newsom be replaced for ____ reasons?"
THEN, another ballot and election has to happen with the new candidates.
In the meantime, the LT. Gov would step in as acting Gov.

Conflict of interest between the State and the Fed.
They are both state positions though, she is a state representative. Congress deals with federal government but it's still a state level elected position.
No
Pelosi is too old to be effective. Getting a different dem from CA would be worse. Keep Pelosi in office as long as possible IMO.
Former LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa might be the backup candidate for the Democrats should a majority of Californians vote for the recall in November.
Some other terrible Democrat would become speaker
Like the recall votes will be counted on Dominion machines. I looked and northern California used Dominion machines. If they are not counted on Dominion machines, then the last general election was rigged. Good luck with the recall.
A recall on Newsom is only forced into another election, they rig those all the time. And the best part once he wins again it will make him stronger with a mandate
But the first ballot is just the question, "should he be replaced"... This recall effort is only to get the question on the ballot.
Then we need to cheat better than the left to make it stick.
