Californians, let low voter turnout energize you!

Tuesday, February 27, 2024, 3:28 pm | Randy Thomasson

If you’re a conservative Californian, you’re used to losing. Because California has the biggest lying union bosses, who rally foolish, average Californians to vote for evil.

However, this March 5 primary election, California conservatives have a greater opportunity to win. Because of expected low voter turnout, those who actually vote and get others to vote have a mathematically higher chance of victory. So think positive!

As the Democrat-run Capitol Weekly reported February 19:

Looking at the returns thus far, we can see the beginnings of a low-turnout election, potentially with a relatively higher Republican turnout.

The impacts of these turnout numbers on campaigns can be massive. Lower turnout is correlated with more volatile election outcomes. Will this have an impact on a big race like the US Senate contest? Maybe. A higher Republican turnout would point to a race in which Steve Garvey makes it to the General election, closing out the election for two of the three main Democratic challengers.

A low turnout election, especially with relatively higher Republican participation, could also cause many legislative and congressional races in heavily Democratic districts to be decided in the primary when a Republican makes the runoff.

California’s Democrat Party operatives are worried. As KCRA Sacramento reported today, “progressive” Political Data, Inc. is uncomfortable with the current voting stats:

Data from Political Data Inc., which tracks ballots returned to county registrar offices, shows turnout for the primary has been lower than expected. It is currently at 8%, or 1.7 million ballots returned.

Political Data CEO Paul Mitchell said normally at this time, the turnout should be at 10% or 2.2 million ballots returned.

“A lot of that has to do with the fact that we have two Presidential races,” Mitchell said. “One where Democrats have kind of punted and gone with the incumbent. And Republicans have essentially consolidated their race around Donald Trump, so there’s not a lot of reason for voters to kind of be enthusiastic about getting those ballots back in.”

Let face it — the only big issue on the ballot is the deceptive Prop. 1, a $10+ BILLION “BOND” — much more expensive than a direct tax — for more “free housing for homeless,” providing a strong magnet for transients to come to sunny California from other states and nations.

But most California voters only see a very long ballot, with more candidates than they want to study, so they don’t want to vote this election. Truly, many people are in denial about the impact of this election on their liberties, rights, values, family, and property.

So please, seize this opportunity! Prioritize voting right and assisting others to vote right. To help you, SaveCalifornia.com has launched our new Pro-Family Election Center at SaveCaliforniaElection.com. Please take out your sample ballot and visit today!

Lastly, DO NOT trust the voter guides you receive by mail. Because “endorsements” are PAID by the candidates themselves, as well as union bosses! Look at the FINE PRINT. Unfortunately, trusted sources are very few, because even some pro-family voter guides include pro-perversity Republicans as recommended “pro-family” candidates.

Then he said, “Take the arrows”; so he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground”; so he struck three times, and stopped. And the man of God was angry with him, and said, “You should have struck five or six times; then you would have struck Syria till you had destroyed it! But now you will strike Syria only three times.”
The Bible, 2 Kings 13:18-19

Do the math in California’s U.S. Senate contest

For the love of God and people created in His image, SaveCalifornia.com is reminding voters to do the hard math in California’s U.S. Senate contest. Because, in California’s “jungle primary,” only two candidates will advance to the general election. And every indication is that will be either be a Democrat and a Republican, or two Democrats.

If you don’t want the latter scenario, then the real question for California conservatives is: Is Republican Steve Garvey acceptable? That’s the question we unpack for you at our SaveCalifornia.com Pro-Family Election Center. Please visit and urge your friends to visit!

“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it — lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace.”
Jesus Christ, Savior of the world and God in the flesh, in Luke 14:28-32

ALERT: Sign this California tough-on-crime petition

Friday, February 2, 2024, 9:35 am | Randy Thomasson

You can stop crime by helping qualify this good California initiative!

Because it would repeal the worst parts of a pro-criminal law, Proposition 47 from 2014, by restoring penalties that outlaw thievery once again.

Request to sign a petition at https://casafecommunities.com. There are petition signing centers being set up.

From the California Globe on Jan. 31, 2024:

Ten years of increased drug and serial theft crimes across California has taken its toll on the state’s residents and businesses. Because of Proposition 47, there is no accountability when it comes to these crimes, theft is underreported and some stores are even told not to report theft crimes. But help is on the way – a proposed ballot initiative to amend Prop. 47 is currently collecting signatures for the November 2024 ballot.

Proposition 47, was passed by tragically misinformed voters in 2014, and flagrantly titled “The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act” by then Attorney General Kamala Harris, which reduced a host of serious felonies to misdemeanors, including drug crimes, date rape, and all thefts under $950, even for repeat offenders who steal every day.

Prop. 47 also decriminalized drug possession from a felony to a misdemeanor, removed law enforcement’s ability to make an arrest in most circumstances, as well as removing judges’ ability to order drug rehabilitation programs rather than incarceration.

The California Increase Drug and Theft Penalties and Reduce Homelessness Initiative (#23-0017) may appear on the ballot in California as an initiated state statute on November 5, 2024.

The initiatives would increase drug crime and theft penalties and allow a new class of crime to be called treatment-mandated felony, which gives the offender the option to participate in drug and mental health treatment.

Deliver those who are drawn toward death,
And hold back those stumbling to the slaughter.
The Bible, Proverbs 24:11
