Ballot Order Adds to Calif. Confusion

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) --

The first step California took to prepare for its recall election was
literally to reshuffle the alphabet, and already the system is
creating confusion -- for voters and the dozens of candidates hoping
to unseat Gov. Gray Davis.

On Monday, state elections officials randomly drew letters to
determine the order of the Oct. 7 recall ballot, which could be choked
with nearly 250 candidates.

I never realized how big a buncha clowns California Republicans could
be. Well, live and learn.

Gzboli comments:
Well said, Harry --- but for "California Republicans" substitute
"California politicians" and you would have it right. We would recall
the whole damn legislature if we could -- and maybe we can.

This is a living example of the pitfall of term limits. Instead of having
a seasoned group of old pols guiding the process, you have a bunch of
inexperienced newcomers running the show with nobody to turn to for advice.

Gzboli adds:
And immensely complicated and corrupted by the fact that the lobbyists
are not term limited -- and they have immense pots of money to back up
their "advice." Around here, an "honest" legislator is one who, when
bought, stays bought.

It was a Republican that got the recall rolling, but he decided not to
run since this whole thing became a circus.
Californians may as well vote for this guy:
