Votes are still coming in, but the vast majority of the last day last minute votes are votes AGAINST the recall, so her lead is likely to only grow.

A good thing happened today! And it’s due to MONTHS of tireless effort from organizers and comrades all across the country

Fuck you Amazon suck my nuts

    Afaik there was a huge campaign to get the recall shut down which failed, and another to get it on the normal election day, which also failed

      My contacts said her office didn't want it as part of the general, but my contacts are also not directly tied to her office, so...

        I worked with people in the SA campaign and that was the info I was working with

        Basically the recall wanted it on an off day to drive down turnout which usually favors the right, and the Kshama campaign was fighting against that

        It came down to the recall campaign refused to turn in their petitions on time, despite having enough signatures well before the deadline, to force the scheduling delay. Standard electoral fuckery
