Only in California. I heard today that there are 135 candidates running in this recall vote. Porn queens(which I knew about), an heir apparent to the "throne" of Russia and all sorts of other nut cases. Bill Guise (sp?) was showing some of these people on TV today and it was really funny (or was it sad). I did not realize this until today that Davis could get 49% of the vote and be ousted by Arnold or someone else with 20% or even less. How's that for democracy in action? Perhaps as soon as someone "wins" with 35% of the vote or whatever, someone else will be smart enough to immediately file for another recall (is that allowed?). Technically Arnold only needs approximately 3.75% of the vote to get in (assuming Davis does not get 50% and the rest of the vote is evenly divided between those other candidates), but he would need 50% of the vote to stay in. Get enough people to run another recall against this "winner" and Davis could be back in the saddle again. Only in California. M
