The ballot measure repeals Proposition 8, which California voters approved in 2008 to define marriage as between a man and a woman in the state's constitution, stripping same-sex couples of the legal right to marry.
The Oakland mayor recall wasn’t related to crime. A rich fuck who owns coal mines wants to resume shipping coal through the port so he’s trying to intimidate politicians with money.
Yeah, Philip Dreyfuss, a coal hedge fund bro from Piedmont, bank rolled a lot of the recall efforts.
That said, all the of campaign messaging and mailers were about crime. That’s the thread he pulled on to get people to vote for her recall. Dreyfuss’ ground campaign wasn’t about coal at all, he tried to bury that because Oakland hates that shit.

I still wonder how many of her recall votes were people being confused and not realizing she isn’t the DA.
I wish I still has my sample ballot, but I’m pretty sure that the ballot said “mayor” on the recall measure.
It did, I just have less faith in voters than you lol
