Institute for Governmental Studies Berkeley Poll on California Gubernatorial Recall

On July 27, the Institute for Governmental Studies at Berkeley released this poll of the September 14, 2021 California gubernatorial recall election.

The bottom half of the poll includes the replacement candidates. Because so many voters are undecided, the poll asked whether the voter is considering voting for particular candidates. Larry Elder is being considered by 34%, more than any other candidate. Jeff Hewitt, the sole Libertarian, is being considered by 12%.

The poll also did ask which candidate the respondents favor, and Larry Elder is leading there also, with 18%.

Most voters do not favor recalling Gavin Newsom, but among voters most likely to vote, the anti-recall vote is only 3% above the pro-recall vote.

  1. Larry Elder has a real chance to win this thing. Him winning would be great for California.

  2. Any poll about the minority rule gerrymanders in CA ???

    — with resulting tyrants — Guv, SOS, mayors, etc.

  3. Like Larry Elder, Jeff Hewitt gets to be twice in first order on ballot, viz., 32nd and 78th Assembly District. Elder is first on ballot in the 34th and 80th Assembly District.

  4. I thought the socialist twerker candidate is first on the ballot statewide? Didn’t an article here say that?

  5. The Socialist Workers candidate is listed first in the Voters Guide, which is postally mailed to all registered voters.

  6. “Why is Hewitt listed in the poll with an R next to his name? And also in the summary as a Republican:”

    Because he is a Republican. All Libertarians are Republicans, and everyone knows it. They need to stop pretending to be a separate party and announce that they are good, loyal conservative Republican Trump supporters. The few who are not can just admit they are Marxists and go provide their holes to Burn Loot Murder commies to show their support.

  7. Why does this website attract fascist idiots? Reason.com does the same thing. Fascists are just too stupid to understand that they’re not wanted in certain areas I guess…. Whatever, you morons can waste your time…. Guess most of you are unemployed too (oh right “China stole your jobs”… no automation did…. Adapt or die); seeing as you have nothing better to do than troll websites to look for fights but literally never get any responses to indulge you. Anyway, back to building my new $4000 computer and working on some web design client work.

    @Nell…. I did “announce my departure”… but it was largely because I have better shit to do than fight uneducated morons on the internet. I have a business to run, screenplays to write, videos to edit, etc. Ya know, make money so I can give it to real Libertarian and Moderate candidates to fight your fascist neo-nazi politicians.

  8. LOL. I am a fascist, neonazi, and or a politician? News to me. As far as I know I’ve never even liked any of those one bit, so what are you talking about, little bitch? Look it is simple. The vast majority of Libertarians and libertarians are independent minded conservative Republicans who love Trump, Alex Jones, Ron Paul, Roger Stone, etc. Therefore any place that caters to libertarians will have a lot of conservatives, constitutionalists, Tea Party patriots, nationalists, race realists, Trump Republicans…that’s just reality. We are all closely affiliated. We are not fascists or nazis or any other kind of left wing commie liberal trash like yourself. Did someone put it in your head that your are a libertarian? Well they lied!!! Facists and nazis are on your side, the left, alongside commies, socialists, liberals, progressives, social democrats, greenie weenies, democratic socialists, etc.

    I am happily self employed and a job creator, thank you so much. I currently have well over a thousand employees working full time. It is you who seems to nothing better to do than troll websites even after you said you’re done and would go somewhere else yet you keep slithering back like the leftist swamp creature that you actually are. Please, tell me some more about how building your computer goes. I usually order mine in bulk orders.

    So back to who’s wanted where…I think you are the odd one out here. You seemed to realize it a while back but couldn’t stay away, could you? It seems you don’t have better shit to do after all, other than troll a site where you are badly out of step with the prevailing, actually libertarian point of view. Good luck on your money making aspirations, young man. I’ll contribute another couple of million to the Donald Trump and approved candidates while you work on, most likely, your first million. I wish you great success. Maybe once you make some real money you won’t be a commie leftist any longer.

  9. Yes. If they fail, they get shoved into a locker, and if they keep failing they get turned into the ham in a ham sammich. Don’t cry for them, their mommies made them that way.

  10. You know why Elder will fail? The same reason Trump failed. Not because they are bad leaders or candidates. It’s the REPUBLICAN PARTY that will make Elder fail because (just like with Trump) they don’t back and hardly vote for anything that helps peoples social conditions unless their arm is twisted. The GOP has a reputation for being too miserly and saying “NO” to budget items when they should say “YES”. For example, this Covid pandemic. American people are hurting. When your people are hurting you help them and don’t worry about a debt ceiling and stuff. Alleviate the problem and then after the crisis is over plan on paying it back. Also, I don’t believe in wasteful spending like the progressive Democrats are trying to do. They are taking advantage of a crisis to push bullcrap.

  11. New Age liberal / socialist / progressive / communist NET tax LOOTERS vs NET tax SLAVES.

    My estimate 40-45 pct LOOTERS vs 60-55 pct tax SLAVES.

    Since 1929 –

    about 25 percent annual deficits (worse in 1942-1945 WW II)

    >>> now circa USA / States / Locals $$$ 45 TRILLION debt.

    NOOOO paying govt debt since 1929-1941 Great Depression I.

    Max crisis – when interest is 100 pct of govt budget —

    but of course — TOTAL econ collapse LONG before that ever happens.

    See bankruptcy of olde Spanish and Brit empires.

    Latest supply/demand econ crisis – end of no pay rent Sat 31 July 2021.

    Gamblers who have rental properties – esp via bank loans.
