New research from @UCLAlatino estimates that 78.1% of #Latinos voted NO in the CA #recall. Contrary to predictions that Latinos could be a key vote in defeating Newsom, very high support for @GavinNewsom among Latinos remains broadly unchanged from the 2018 election. (1/3) 
As researchers @roddominguezv, @misaeligaldamez, @MichaelHerndon, @ana_loaxaca, @PalmerTurnbull, & @MikeBRios found, #Latino voters mobilized later than others. The single biggest day of Latino votes was September 14, 2021– the day of the #recall election. (2/3)
In most counties, support for @GavinNewsom ⬆️ as the concentration of #Latino voters in precincts ⬆️. For the full data, click here: latino.ucla.edu/research/latin… (3/3)

LPPI Director @SonjaFrancine joins @SonensheinPBI @jpaik88, @BW4WLA & @IEUnited on a panel by @EthnicMediaSvc providing analysis behind how/why CA's ethnic voters overwhelmingly rejected the Governor's #recall
@SonjaFrancine shares regional data and analysis by @UCLAlatino showing sweeping Latino opposition to the recall in traditional Republican strongholds like #OrangeCounty🍊, #MercedCounty🧑🌾, and #MaderaCounty🪵
@SonensheinPBI, Director of @PBI explains "While Newsom will probably win fairly easily [in the '22 general election] the Latino vote will be much more important in the 2022 congressional elections, including in the four highly contested House seats in SoCal."🚨
Policy can be hard to explain on Twitter, but #AB1139 is trying to tackle an important issue so let's give it a shot.

Whenever new tech comes out & there are no economies of scale, it’s often expensive. In the 80s my Ma was PISSED when Dad came home with microwave. He spent almost $500. Now you can buy one for under $60. /2

Solar is no different. That's why CA chose to create a local solar sharing program, called net metering, for people who were willing to install rooftop solar and share surplus power with their neighbors. Even with net metering, however, solar was still out of reach for many. /3
DEAN FLIPPO was Monterey County's long term District Attorney after Bill Curtis (and a couple others). FLIPPO has been in charge of Monterey County's prosecution side of top law enforcement. @SheriffBernal, the @MCoSheriff is on the other 1/2 of "top tier".

as "legal advisor" for the Monterey County Peace Officers Association.
That position raises huge legal, ethical, and conflict of interest concerns. The conflict should be obvious to the ethical and knowing keepers of governmental ethics. Reg. agencies and others. The @FBI.

Dean FLIPPO and John PHILLIPS were the two numbers twos to a corrupt former District Attorney - Bill CURTIS.
During FLIPPO'S tenure as District Attorney he prosecuted zero public corruption cases of significance.
Some public officials were prosecuted for crimes unrelated

This is your daily pension announcement: "If you don't like us you can fire us in four years," edition. Well, an MLA east of Edmonton (@nateglubish) said that in response to complaints about UCP policies. Well we may have to Nate.... #handsoffmypension
But, if you pass recall legislation anytime soon I think we will take a run at that. You have no idea how many people you pissed off by transferring their net worth to a new investment manager without consultation. #wearecomingforyou
I am already looking around for a riding held by a UCP MLA where a large number of teachers and GOA employees live. I am willing to go into the riding and stir the pension pot of discontent. And maybe this would convince you not to blindly follow Travis.

I still see a lot of calls for #Impeachment of @LGJustinFairfax , or even @GovernorVA , including @JamilSmith last week in @RollingStone . It's not going to happen, at least anytime soon. Here's why #thread 1/
First of all, is what @LGJustinFairfax did even impeachable? Events happened long before he got into office, right? Well, VA Constitution defines offense as "malfeasance in office, corruption, neglect of duty, or other high crime or misdemeanor" law.lis.virginia.gov/constitution/a… 2/
What does this mean? Nothing and anything. The only true definition of an impeachable offense is that you were impeached for it. It's a political, not legal standard, and it is solely up to the legislative body with the power of impeachment 3/

The issues swirling around the #FiveWhiteGuys are larger than just @NancyPelosi.
It's their tactics, and it's the threats they've had the fucking audacity, to leverage against the party and the entire nation.
In my opinion each one of these men should face a #recall vote.

The idea that a small minority would hijack any part of the democratic process given what we've gone through the past three years is unimaginable.
And changing the rules midstream because you are not happy with the outcome a fair vote will get?
Seriously?

That's straight up Republican bullshit right there. That's Tea Party, #BananaRepublic, anti-democratic tomfoolery.
It has no place in this nation, nevermind the Democratic Party, currently charged with the protection of American democracy itself.
It gets worse.
