Commiefornia is denying an African American the right to run for governor

Atlanticmike, none of that has anything to do with the subject matter of this thread. Please stick to the issues rather than dreaming up insults for people who disagree with you. If you can't refute your interlocutor, just admit as much and skip the schoolyard taunts.

Well said, Dr. Shades. I have to wonder sometimes if Atlanticmike might be no more than the 12 year old schoolyard bully he sometimes emulates on this forum.

If I was stuck in commiefornia I'd vote for mr. Elder.

You crack me up sir. I think it's funny you think I'm the school yard bully. I've read 100s of older post and realized anyone with a different opinion is called names on this forum. The only poster left with a different opinion in the echo chamber was Ajax and most of the time he was insulted on a daily basis, it seemed like you guys were trying your best to get rid of him by insulting him. All I've done is come along and play your game, infact, I turned up the volume a little bit so you see how it feels being insulted all the time. Basically, I'm the anti bully!! Like I said from the beginning, stop insulting posters personally and I'll stop insulting posters personally. Insult conservatives andTrump all you want, I don't care, but why insult posters personally??
And most posters have understood what I was doing. The personal insults on Ajax have gone way down. There's really only one poster left that does personal insults. Respect goes a long way sir!

Larry Elder Wins in Court: California Must Put Him on Recall Ballot

Conservative talk show host Larry Elder won his court challenge Wednesday to California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, who must place him on the list of candidates in the Sep. 14 election to recall incumbent Gov. Gavin Newsom (D).

As Breitbart News reported Tuesday, Elder’s campaign sued the Secretary of State after she excluded him from the list of 41 candidates to replace Newsom, if a majority of voters choose to recall him. The reason given was that Elder allegedly failed to file complete tax returns. Elder’s campaign denied that accusation, noting that he had turned in five years of tax returns on time, and also arguing that the law requiring candidates to submit tax returns did not apply to recalls anyway.

Elder also noted the Secretary of State had exempted Newsom from the requirement, saying he was not a “candidate.”

Judge Laurie Earl agreed with the latter point: “Preliminarily … I am not convinced that Election Code section 8902 applies to recall election, and if it did, I am of the opinion, I am inclined to find that Mr. Elder substantially complied.”

After lawyers for all parties had a change to present their case, Earl made her ruling final:

I don’t find that the recall election is a direct primary election ballot … By reaching that finding, I don’t find that Mr. Elder was required to file tax returns at all … I would grant the petition, and issue a peremptory and writ of mandate, directing the respondent, and all persons under her control, to file Mr. Elder’s nomination documents … qualifying him as a candidate and place his name and ballot designation on the ballot, and any sample ballot and voter pamphlet for a candidate for Governor of the State of California in the September 14th recall election.

She also required the Secretary of State to include Elder’s statement of qualifications to be included in the voter pamphlet.

She ruled that while she did not need to order Weber to review Elder’s tax returns, the Secretary of State could give him the opportunity to file supplemental tax returns if necessary.

If Democrats hoped to keep Elder — a charismatic black conservative with a devoted popular following — off the ballot, the move may have backfired, as he has scored an important victory against the Democrat-run state government.

Former Monterey Park mayor Betty Chu, who also sued on behalf of Elder, had called the Secretary’s attempt to exclude Elder from the ballot “voter suppression,” throwing Democrats’ recent allegations against Republicans back at them.

And if any of you disagree with Larry's policies and choose not to vote for him, it must be because you're racist.

Seems I’ve seen this claim before from folks who join a group, discover that their trolling isn’t working, and then realize that they’ll get booted/get no attention unless they start following forum rules.

It would be racist to vote for him. He wore a MAGA hat on TV. I saw a picture of him with a MAGA hat and someone made words that were with the picture. I’d rather a man have puny muscles or no muscles than be able to lift one of those hats onto his head. Racism isnt just about what skin color you choose to like. It can also be about who you voted for against Hillary or Biden.

So voting for a certain candidate that ran against Hilary or Biden makes someone racist? If so, does that make the 70 some million people who voted for Trump racist in your opinion?

‘Racism’ is literally baked into human DNA, as a component of survival.

What you decide to do with your racism is what actually matters.

So everyone is racist, not just white people?
