WEBVTT - Your Reaction To Last Night's Election 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.320 And we continue at two five in the afternoon on 0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:06.760 the John Phillips Show, Mister Randy Weggs in Culver City. 0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:09.640 John, there was one face I did not expect to 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:13.920 see analyzing the election results, not only on CNN with 0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:19.360 Alex Michaelson, but NBC four with Conan Nolan. Who wants 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:22.760 who even wants to know? What Eric Garcetti thinks about 0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:23.319 this race? 0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:28.400 I receive things on both ends. He was an analyst. 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:31.960 He had a whole segment on NBC four and he 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:34.360 had a whole segment on with Alex Michaelson. 0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:38.120 This guy, you give us the supply, will meet the 0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:38.880 need by July. 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:41.279 And here's what I realized as I listened to Eric 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:46.280 Garcetti talk about this election. While in objectively every single way, 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:49.360 Karen Bass is a worse mayor than Eric Garcetti was. 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:53.120 And that's saying something. Eric Garcetti is a much more 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:54.240 annoying mayor. 0:00:54.680 --> 0:01:02.280 Just be smart and stay apart. Something odd happened over 0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:08.000 the break that I can't find any evidence to explain. 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:11.640 But one of the things that we've been following over 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:14.160 the course of this election are where the betting markets 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:19.199 have things and the betting markets have been pretty consistent 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:22.360 the whole way through, where they had Javier Bessera is 0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:25.160 a heavy favorite to make it through to the November ballot, 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:28.440 and they had I think Steve Hilton in the mid 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:33.000 to low seventies all day yesterday and then today I 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:36.200 think it bumped up to the eighties and it's somewhere 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:37.160 in that range now. 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:39.600 He's at seventy eight right now, but Sarah's at ninety 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:41.720 eight point one in styrs down at eighteen. 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:46.800 So since the show started, Spencer Pratt was always a 0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:50.760 favorite to make the November ballot. I think he fluctuated 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:54.280 somewhere between sixty and eighty depending on when you looked 0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:58.960 well over the course of today's show. He is cratered 0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:00.240 on the betting markets. 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:03.880 So if you look at Kalshi, which is the website 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:07.000 that even CNN does official segments with, so I guess 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:09.919 it's an official news source now, the people that are 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:13.520 gambling on the LA's Mayors race, and this one bet 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:17.120 has about one point seven million dollars of volume in it, 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:21.560 so that's something to think about. Spencer Pratt at seven am, 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:25.000 so less than eight hours ago, had a sixty four 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:29.000 percent odds to make it to the November runoff. As 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.400 of right now, a little after two o'clock in the afternoon, 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:37.520 Nythia Rahman has eclipsed him. Right now, the odds of 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:42.760 making the mayoral runoff, it's Nythia fifty two Spencer Pratt 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:43.560 forty nine. 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:49.880 Okay, but I'm looking at the votes that have been 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:54.320 counted and Spencer is leading her by over eight points. 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:55.640 Nothing has changed. 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.520 There hasn't been a vote dump, and yeah, you're gonna 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.000 hear that term a lot in the next few day 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:05.400 in Los Angeles since late last night, and the next 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:08.880 time there will be a vote dump will be between 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:13.480 four and five pm. So there's no new votes that 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:16.440 have been counted, no way to know which way that 0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:19.520 they're going. So either you have a whole bunch of 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.280 people that are just assuming that there's going to be 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.120 a late surge, or and there's no real guard rails 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.560 to prevent this. Somebody who is counting the ballots at 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.240 the registrar's office is going to try to make a 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:33.960 whole bunch of money off of this race. 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:38.960 There's no explanation for this. 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:45.119 Again, no additional votes have been counted since last night. 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:50.040 The current total stands in the La Mayors race right now, 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:53.000 there are still plenty of ballots to be counted. But 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:56.440 you look at the LA Mayors race, Karen Bass has 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.040 one hundred and seventy two thousand and thirty four percent, 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.880 Spencer not far behind, one hundred and fifty one thousand 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:07.720 and thirty percent, Nythia one hundred and ten twenty two percent. 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:12.160 So unless the vast, vast, vas vast vast majority of 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:16.479 the last minute votes break for Nythia, I don't see 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:18.680 how the odds can change that quickly. 0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:22.200 Okay, So let's just think about this for a second. 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:27.240 You can vote through the mail all the way up 0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.520 until when the post office closes yesterday. 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.039 Correct, that's right, And if the voting center receives that 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:37.680 ballot up to seven days later, it still counts, which 0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:40.040 is why we're going to have, again, sorry for using 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.360 this term, a lot of vote dumps between now and then. 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:49.200 If I mail something from my city to another part 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:53.479 of California, it usually takes two days to get there. 0:04:56.080 --> 0:05:01.960 That's the normal situation for me. If I'm mailing something 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.800 from one city in my county to another city in 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.560 my county, it never takes more than two days. It 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.120 really doesn't. I guess you could mail your ballot in. 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:16.880 If you're a flight attendant or a pilot or something 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.800 like that, you're in the military from a different, more 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.640 remote place, so maybe that takes a little bit longer. 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.640 So let's just say, Okay, you put your ballot in 0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:30.400 the mail on Saturday, so that's Monday, that's Tuesday. That's 0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:33.720 two days, so it probably should show up by Tuesday. 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.200 But let's just say that there's a large volume of 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:41.159 pieces in the mail and it comes Wednesday instead of Tuesday. 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.080 Okay, so that would be today. If you mail it 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:47.880 on Monday, it's more likely than not it arrives by Wednesday. 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:54.039 But unless they get the mail early at the county registrar, 0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:58.080 they may not even have those ballots yet. And then 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.000 you have the ballots that are going to come in tomorrow, 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:05.040 which were ballots that were probably mailed on election Day. 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:07.600 How do they know how many ballots are coming if 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.760 they haven't received them yet. They don't. 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:14.320 There's no way to know how many more ballots are 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:19.919 coming in if they haven't arrived yet yet. 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.400 It seems like the people who are gambling on this 0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.640 are acting as if they know something that we don't. 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.000 I mean, maybe they're just trying to play against the spread. 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:33.320 I don't know what's going on here, but everything that 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:35.880 we're seeing for the results that have come in, maybe 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:39.960 what's going on here is people are remembering twenty twenty 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:44.479 two and they're remembering how well Rick Caruso did on 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:48.440 election night and then dropped ten points. And maybe there 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:51.680 are people that are thinking that if that happens, I 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.400 might as well put a twenty on it. 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:58.000 But this happened all at once. This happened over the 0:06:58.040 --> 0:06:59.839 course of one segment on this radio. 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:05.239 So at nine am NITEA was at thirty one percent. 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:10.040 By eleven am, she jumped up to thirty eight percent. 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:17.160 By let's see, by by noon she was at forty 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:21.200 seven percent. Right before this show started, she started making 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.760 this big jump. But she's been climbing all morning. Why 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:30.280 nobody knows, again, is any This isn't any real numbers 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.360 outside of what people are gambling on. 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:36.960 At two oh one PM, according to Calshi, it was 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:40.640 Spencer at sixty two, Her at thirty five, Karen at one, 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:50.680 and then let's see when it changed at two o nine. Well, 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:51.440 that can't be right. 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.640 Are you looking at the right one? Who will advance 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:55.440 in the Los Angeles mayoral election. 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.600 I'm looking at Calshi's website calshi dot com. 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.920 Yeah, that's the big one right there. Currently it's Nithia 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.800 at fifty three and Spencer Pratt at fifty. Now that 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.440 adds up to more than one hundred, but who knows 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:14.280 how this works? Wild And again, this has nothing to 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.560 do with the counting of ballads. This has nothing to 0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:18.640 do with who's going to be the winner and who's 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:19.520 going to be the loser. 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:24.400 This just involves people who are gambling on the outcome 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.600 of this race. But it's a wild, wild, wild thing 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:30.960 to happen in such a short period of time. 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.760 Well, we'll see what happens when the next count shows 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.160 up there. I fed a different way to say that 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:40.680 between four and five o'clock, and I will have those 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:44.080 results on my five o'clock show, So that'll be fun. 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:48.040 All right, Let's go to the phones and welcome Kelly 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:51.959 in Studio City. Kelly, Hello, Hi, John. 0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:57.120 I just had a comment about but Sarah's speech last night. 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:00.720 I just couldn't believe how scripted it was, and he 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:05.000 was just reading the teleprompter from left to right and 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:09.160 it was just so typical Democrat political puppet. 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:14.400 You know, well, he is the California Joe Biden. So 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.760 they are not going to let him off the leash, 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:20.400 because anytime you let him off the leash, it goes haywire. 0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:24.280 So I am firmly of the belief that they're going 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:26.800 to put him in the basement and when he goes 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:28.959 out in public, he is going to stick to the 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:32.360 script and he is not going to deviate because if 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:37.160 he does, they open himself up to all kinds of selves, 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.760 up to all kinds of liability. Why would you do 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:42.240 that if you don't have to. So I think they're 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.000 going to run a very risk averse campaign in the general. 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.920 Yes, just got to get him into the debates. 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:53.839 All right, thank you for the call. Let's go to 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:55.280 Bill and Granada Hills. Bill. 0:09:55.320 --> 0:10:01.680 Hello, I you know when Trump went and supported Hilton, 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.640 I couldn't understand, because, like you say, we needed both 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.520 of them, and I started thinking about it. I think 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:12.600 Trump has insider information on the DOJ holding back to 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:17.560 go after Bessera once those two are in the final election, 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:22.000 and then of course we would win because Hilton wouldn't 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:25.200 be running against anybody, and then we would have down 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:30.000 ballot wins like Pratt because Democrats their heads will have exploded, 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.040 screaming and yelling that Trump is going after the opposite party, 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:38.839 the political you know, persecution, and they're not going to 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.240 show up. And Pratt could win too. This could be 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.640 a double double. But now you just said what you said, 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:44.920 I'm all depressed again. 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:50.480 Yeah, I can't figure this out. 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:53.199 And I really my wife and I were going to 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:55.720 split our vote until just recently because I started getting 0:10:55.720 --> 0:11:00.360 worried that Trump supported Hilton. And Okay, something's going going on, 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:02.720 because you know, he has all the cards, he just 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:03.800 doesn't like to show him. 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.040 So I disagree with you. I don't think he has 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.760 inside information on what's going to happen to Beserah. I 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:15.480 believe what's going on with Trump is that he has 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:20.280 focused on Iran and he's focused on the global stage 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:24.160 right now, and he listened to someone in his orbit 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:27.559 who's paying attention to California, and this is what they 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.160 wanted him to do, and this is what they talked 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:33.920 him into doing. Because right now, if he's paying attention 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:38.560 to primaries in California, he's not spending his time doing 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.880 what he should be doing, which is trying to figure 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.960 out what to do with Iran. My guess is that 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:48.360 he's worried about war and peace and global issues and 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:51.240 those sorts of things, and this is something that's just 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.520 on the back burner for him. 0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:57.360 I agree, he's doing the country's job and he can't 0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:02.320 be bothered with governors, and that's the way it should be. 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.360 Thank you for the call, serp. Let's go to Sean 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:05.880 and Venice. 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:11.839 Sean, Hello, Hey, guys, how you doing awesome? Yeah, LA 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.840 voter apathy. It's the horrible man. We had like twenty 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:19.480 percent voter turnout. You know, the unions like control our 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:23.800 local elections. Here, you got about sixty thousand union workers 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:27.400 in the city. You had their spouse, their family, their children. 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:29.720 You know that could be about one hundred and fifty 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:33.680 thousand votes, which is around where Bath has. Is that 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:36.880 you got the special interest the people who pay to 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:42.160 play there. There's her constituents. So I hope Pratman can 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:46.720 relay this information to the public to energize us, so 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:50.280 you know, they get out and vote, don't I hope 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:54.240 LA doesn't let the unions choose our next mayor. Now, 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:57.720 when you're talking about vote harvesting, and the last election 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:00.800 with Caruso, you know, yeah, yeah, he went to bed 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.760 thinking he was up and gonna win. Of course he 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:09.480 got smoked with all the vote harvesting and uh the 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:13.559 progressive votes that trickled in dump after dump. Now I'm 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:18.400 in Venice and Tracy Park has almost the same lead 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:23.520 then against Eric Darling, and she has against Pisa, And 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:27.400 I'm just waiting to see these vote dumps and bring 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:30.400 it down. Like I think Tracy only won by like 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:35.720 two thousand votes, so you know, it's I hate this, Uh, 0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:39.080 you know, two week, three week wait just to find 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:40.080 out who won the election. 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:44.959 All right, thank you for the call, sir. Let's go 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:46.960 to ed Wardo in Oakland. 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:51.800 At Wardo, Hello, hey, young Tie Andny and this is 0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:56.320 not a council callman that has that much consequences you 0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.719 in all of your guests. He asked if anyone could 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:03.840 see plain how to pronounce the name of this Celdo 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:09.800 candidate from the Democrats have yer vesera the X. Let 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.320 me just start by saying something. There is not a 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:16.720 language called Spanish that doesn't exist. It's called Castilium. And 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:19.920 we're speaking in Istan America and as well in Spain. 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:23.000 It's called Castilian. So when you go to Old Castilian, 0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:27.320 if you read any documents from let's say the colonists, 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:30.760 I have done that. I noticed that they used the 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:35.200 eggs as the sun. So that is why Mexico. If 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:37.600 you go to Mexico, the Mexican people don't call their 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:41.840 country Mexico. They call it Mexico. Same thing with Texas. 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.440 If you talk to any Spanish speaker, they will say Texas. 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:49.440 So havevier sera is haveavier? The x is a jay 0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:54.440 sound as an Old Castilian. Also, just I couldn't help. 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:55.440 I mean, you guys made me. 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:57.720 Really, I was just laughing. 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:02.120 I'm unespathetic, but I was into stire. I mean, this 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.920 is honestly, if you're not in California, if you're from 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:07.560 some other place, you think this is a plot for 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:11.600 a comedy film. You have this billionaire goes crazy and 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:14.400 then the guy starts attacking himself. You know how many 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:17.400 times he attacked a billionaire while he was speaking a 0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:19.840 billion in itself? I don't know, probably five times. When 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:24.080 that short space that you have in the air, and 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:27.520 it's like, honestly, it's like, I don't know, how can 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.400 someone go see that this guy is charlottan like a drifter. 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:33.720 I mean, it's like, come on, I mean, either you 0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:37.080 have to be really confused in this life or I 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.120 don't know. I don't mean to be insultable. Maybe there's 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:44.160 someone some issues with intellectual impairment, if you want to 0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:47.880 say it in a in a nicer way. So anyways, 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.040 were my thoughts have yet? That's his name? 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.800 All right? Thank you, thank you for the call. I 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.000 appreciate it, Johnny. 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:58.120 In just a few minutes since we've been speaking about this, 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.160 the best have now put Nthia up to fifty four. 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:08.000 Something is going on that we don't know about. 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:09.600 Or this could be and I don't know how this 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:12.720 website works. I have not put money into Calshie. I'm 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.120 sure some people have. It could be that some people 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.760 start to see any kind of trend line and they're like, oh, 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:21.760 I got to get in on this, But what's the 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:24.880 what is the information that's causing them to do this? 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.800 There's been no alteration to the count. 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:28.440 Well. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.480 Here's something else you have to think about, because we 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:35.200 know when the race was early, Swalwell's campaign was literally 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:38.840 spending money on Calshi to boost him in the odds. 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:42.560 It's very possible, and Nithia Donor could have just put 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.120 a couple one hundred bucks in there, give it a 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.800 little boost and then like everyone's like, what's that about? Well, 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:51.040 what's that about? Spencer Pratt now down to forty six. 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:57.880 Let's go to Morris in Highland Park. Morris, Hello, a 0:16:58.120 --> 0:16:59.120 good afternoon. 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:03.880 This election is a circus. You've got to excrement Bakaria. 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:06.000 It's going to be our next governor because this is 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:10.080 a socialist state. And he's already said Bakaria, he's going 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:12.280 to pay. He wants the tax they paid for the 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:15.960 healthcare for the illegals, where Ray Hilton said no, we 0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:19.199 won't allow it. Bakaria said yes. So I don't know 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:22.120 what to make of this if this is circus act, 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:24.880 and I don't know why it's such an election, such 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:28.200 a big deal. It doesn't mean anything anyhow. It's one 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:32.280 year after another, day in and day out, and uh, 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:36.240 it's very very unfortunate. So I don't know what else 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:39.600 to tell you. You know, it's going to be who 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:43.560 will be a governor of the state when he's done. 0:17:43.320 --> 0:17:47.760 For all right, thank you for the call.

Let's go to Timothy in Glendale. Timothy, Hello, Hello, sir. 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.320 Good, good afternoon. It's a pleasure to speak to you. 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:33.280 Hi there, Hi there. Listen. What I just really really 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:35.480 want to say is to all of my Sollo Republicans, 0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.240 please do not move out of the state. We have 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:41.120 to stay and fight, and we have to take back 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.760 the state. I can remember when I was a child, 0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:45.639 we had one of the best governors and he was 0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:48.560 a Democrat. His name was Edmund Brown, who was Jerry's dad, 0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:52.600 And the streets were clean, the schools were great, the 0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:56.200 beaches were cleaned up, and everybody was flocking here. In fact, 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:58.000 we have the point of the fact that all of 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:00.919 the U hauls were coming in full and going back empty. 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.080 That's what we had here and we don't have it anymore. 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.440 And it heart breaks me. And I want to know 0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:08.800 that everyone here is going to understand that we have 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:12.080 an opportunity at once in a century opportunity in this 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:15.960 city to change the vision and get Spencer Pratt in 0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:20.600 and get Steve Hilton in. It can be done. But Democrats, please, 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:22.520 I know you don't want to do this, but just 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:26.159 one time in your life, vote Republican. Please. We have 0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:29.040 a chance to change it, to lower our gas prices, 0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:33.240 to get the streets clean, and to help everyone. That's 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.919 all I have to say. I just I didn't want 0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:37.080 to bug you anymore, and I had to. 0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:39.600 Well, you know what's funny is you look at what 0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:43.320 Pat Brown did. Let's take the freeway grid. The freeway 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:46.040 grid that we drive on today was a grid that 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:50.280 was created in large part by Pat Brown. They would 0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:52.960 tar and feather you if you wanted to build more 0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:56.920 freeways right now, No Democrat would ever sign on to that. 0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:00.840 The water system so that the Central Valley could have 0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:04.120 the water for the crops, because that's a huge industry 0:21:04.160 --> 0:21:07.520 here in California. If you tried to direct water for 0:21:07.680 --> 0:21:11.520 crops and housing and those sorts of things, they would 0:21:11.600 --> 0:21:14.879 run you out of town. Maybe they'd put up with 0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:19.720 the state university system that he built and those kinds 0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:23.159 of infrastructure projects, but none of the other stuff. They 0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:27.520 would stand for because what he did was he created 0:21:28.400 --> 0:21:31.959 a grid for a growing state. He wanted a bigger population, 0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:35.240 he wanted more people to move here, he wanted more 0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:38.640 industries to set up shop here. And that's just something 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:41.959 that the modern day Democrats are opposed to across the board. 0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:46.080 It's really a shame and it's really a tragedy that 0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:50.000 it's happening in my state. I'm a Native Californian, lived 0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:53.800 here my whole life. I love my state. Politics are questionable, 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:57.119 but still we have a beautiful state. Everyone, please step 0:21:57.200 --> 0:21:59.920 up and help protect it. Please vote for Steve Hill, 0:22:00.520 --> 0:22:04.560 Please vote for Spencer Pratt. Thank you, all. 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:06.280 Right, thank you for the call, sirup. Let's go to 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:10.919 Paul and van Ey's Paul. Hello, Oh, thanks both of you. 0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:13.560 It's very nice to see a few months ago, not 0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:18.320 far from me at the Pineapple Saloon. Anyway, you know, 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:22.720 to stay here. My best friend twenty years younger than me, 0:22:22.800 --> 0:22:26.879 but Native California, just moved to North Carolina. So I'm 0:22:26.920 --> 0:22:30.760 just totally depressed. Uh stay here, We're the Alamo. 0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:32.399 You know. 0:22:33.480 --> 0:22:38.080 It's just we're overwhelmed. It's not gonna work, you know, 0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:42.360 there's just the tide has turned in this in all 0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:46.320 those cities, New York, Chicago, Minneapolis. I mean, it's just 0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:50.840 eventually turns around. But how will it turn around without 0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:55.240 either a war or who knows what? So I'm very depressed. 0:22:56.280 --> 0:23:02.159 Voter fraud continues. As I said, we're overwhelmed here. And 0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:06.920 I don't blame you and Randy for the glib humor. 0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.320 In the words of Adlie Stevenson's where I feel when 0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:14.440 he lost the second his second election to right as 0:23:14.480 --> 0:23:17.280 in here, I'm too old to cry and it hurts 0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:19.800 too much to last. So anyway, thank you very much. 0:23:20.600 --> 0:23:23.359 All right, thank you for the call, sir. Let's go 0:23:23.400 --> 0:23:27.840 to Chris in Westlake Village. Chris, Hello, Hi, guys. 0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:30.359 You know, when I vote, I get my mail in 0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:33.199 ballot at home, and I like to cross reference with 0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:38.560
