Are 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:30.200 you prepared for that? No, including technically, because I have 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.119 to figure out a setup where we can have three 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:34.760 microphones and I don't know what we do with the cameras, 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:36.679 and we're gonna make Nettter go down there with us. 0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:41.000 So technically I'm not prepared for it. Emotionally, I'm also 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:42.160 not prepared for it. 0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:43.600 You can smell right here. 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:46.440 Are you gonna bring a gas mask or just a 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:50.760 Maybe I'll bring one of my old COVID masks. I 0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:52.240 still have a whole bunch in my drawer. 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.920 Yeah, that could be helpful, although I think the smell 0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:56.720 still gets. 0:01:56.480 --> 0:02:02.600 In through those. I think it does. What did we 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:06.920 get ourselves into? It's these kinds of terrible ideas are 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:10.280 what inspire people to subscribe, which is why we want 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:12.840 you in the chat and to email us your ideas 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:14.760 for what we should do when we get to ten 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.400 thousand subscribers. 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:25.120 All right, well, that should be something eight hundred two 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:27.919 two two five two two two. He is a telephone 0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:32.720 number one eight hundred two two two five two two two. Well, 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.320 we know that on the November ballot we're going to 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:39.560 be deciding a bunch of different ballot initiatives, including the 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:45.360 billionaire wealth confiscation tax and voter ID among others. And Randy, 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:48.320 we have some pull results to show you just exactly 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:51.040 where the state stands right now on those issues. 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.760 When it comes to some of the hot button issues 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:55.799 that are on the November ballot, I believe there are 0:02:55.840 --> 0:03:00.480 fourteen statewide initiatives. Let's see what the voters current say 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:02.640 according to a poll that I am assuming is not 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.079 one of Karen Mass's fake polls about Prop thirty nine, 0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:08.760 which is voter ID and Prop forty, which is the 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.160 wealth tax, or as I like to call it, the 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:14.919 take Tom Steyer's money away from him tax. I'm Tom Steyer. 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:16.560 I'm about to ride the d. 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:20.400 For more. Here's Fox forty. 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.560 Fox forty is your local election headquarters. With less than 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.000 three months from election day, a new poll is giving 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.680 us an early look at where California voters stand on 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:32.520 two major ballot measures. The survey indicates voters are leaning 0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:36.120 towards passing the so called millionaire tax while rejecting voter 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:37.920 I D thanks for joining wait. 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.400 I thought voter ID had all kinds of support. 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:43.880 Yes, when you ask, should you have to provide your 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:48.160 identification to cast a ballot? But because they now have 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:51.560 titled it the Prevent People from Voting Act or whatever 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:55.320 the hell it is, you change the entire dynamic of 0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:55.920 that election. 0:03:57.120 --> 0:04:01.720 Thanks Bobert Bob Bonta for Fox forty News at six thirty. 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.160 I'm Richard Charpin tonight for Eric and I'm Niki Lorenzo. 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:06.440 Fox forty Capital reporter Aton Wallace has a breakdown of 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:10.880 the numbers and reaction from supporters and opponents both measures. 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:13.040 Vote no. I'm thirty nine. 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:17.159 US Senator Alex Padilla in Sacramento Tuesday, speaking out against 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:20.520 Prompt thirty nine, the statewide measure that, if passed by 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:24.320 voters this November, will require voter ID statewide. 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:29.120 Prop thirty nine will make it harder for eligible Californians 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.200 to register and vote, and accordingly. 0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:35.560 To register, we make everyone register automatically when they get 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:36.720 a driver's license. 0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:39.320 You have to have a driver's license to get on 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:42.159 an airplane, you have to have a driver's license, I 0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:44.640 think to get into a federal building. So if you 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:48.120 go to serve on federal jury duty or whatever, you 0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:50.560 need to show a picture ID. In fact, I think 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.520 you need to show a picture ID to get into 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:53.360 their offices. 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.960 You need to show a picture ID to get into Costco. 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:01.320 They don't just let you pass by with some friends 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:04.520 Costco card anymore. They check the face and they're not 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:06.680 even gonna let you buy the hot dog unless you're 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:07.520 really a member. 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.960 And you know what's funny is that this crowd, the 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.279 crowd that's opposed to picture ID, they're the first ones 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.480 to claim that the election was rigged as soon as 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:20.080 they lose. That's what Katie Porter did to draw all 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.640 kinds of heat after that US Senate race when Adam 0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:23.400 Shift beat her. 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:25.039 I call it the Shift gift. 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.960 And then you go to Texas, Jasmin Krockett did the 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.839 same thing when she lost that primary. 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:32.600 There. To the guy who thinks they're six different sexes, 0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:35.120 there's just a lot of sore losers out there. 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.039 This new UC Berkeley igs LA Times poll of just 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:42.960 over two three hundred likely California voters, it appears a 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.520 narrow majority of Californians feel the same way Padilla does. 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:50.600 The survey finding fifty one percent of Californians oppose the 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:54.080 voter ide ballot measure, while forty two percent support it. 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:56.159 Seven percent are undecided. 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.000 Argdemocity doesn't work if people don't have faith in election outcome. 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:02.520 GOP Huntington Beach State Senator Tony Strickland is a longtime 0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:05.560 supporter and joint author of the voter ide Bella measure. 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:09.080 Despite the latest poll, he believes the measure will pass 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.960 as outreach about it increases the closer you get to 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:12.840 election day. 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.120 When a dog voted in the last couple elections in 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:18.479 Orange County, there's a problem and right. 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:23.160 Now, Although to be fair, the woman who registered her 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:26.599 dog to vote didn't do it to cheat. She did 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.240 it to prove that it's easy to register your dog 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:31.680 to vote. Now, are you sure it was an actual 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.080 dog and not the bounty hunter? 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:36.279 Oh. What we're trying to do is bring a common 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:39.080 sense measure that's been done by more than half this country, 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.080 and it's a system that almost everybody in the world has. 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.640 A democracy uses voter ID the poll. 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:46.480 And it doesn't even take away mail in ballots. You 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.240 just have to put in the last four digits of 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:49.000 your socials. 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.440 Yeah, but they don't want any guard rails on our 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:55.039 elections at all, and they want it to take a 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:57.120 month to count all the ballots. 0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:00.719 Also asking respondents to weigh in on another ballot measure 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.360 receiving a lot of attention, Prop forty, dubbed the California 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:07.920 Billionaire Tax. The initiative, which is organized by the SCIU 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:11.560 United Healthcare Workers West Union, would impose a one time 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:15.600 five percent tax on the worldwide assets of California billionaires 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.239 who've lived in the Golden State as of January first 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:23.240 of this year. Backers say the revenue generated from the 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:26.520 tax will help backfill an estimated one hundred billion dollars 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.680 in federal health care cuts from the Trump administration's HR 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:30.240 one law. 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.760 Yeah, but how much of it goes to the SCIU 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:34.600 uhw's pension fund. 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.200 See that's what they don't want anyone to know about. 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:40.800 The money is not going to go to services for 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:41.560 you today. 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:42.760 It's going to go for. 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:46.720 The pension plans for people who retired a long time ago. 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:50.840 Or, as President Trump often described it, the big beautiful bill. 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.120 The poll finding as of now, forty eight percent of 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.920 likely California voters support the proposal, while forty one percent 0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:02.480 are opposed. Another eleven percent are undecided. As THEIU United 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:03.240 Healthcare rer. 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:07.000 Now not having over fifty percent. As we're just a 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.160 little more than two months away from the election, that's 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:12.960 not great for the billionaire tax crowd. 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:15.760 No, and it's not just going to be the usual 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:17.920 suspects who are spending money against it. 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:18.880 Don't forget. 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:22.960 The California Teachers Association and other unions are going to 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:23.840 do the same thing. 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:28.400 Workers Western Union president Dave Reagan is a lead organizer 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:28.960 of the measure. 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:33.199 The healthcare system is under ENORMALOIUS pressure now, and if 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:36.319 we don't do something, millions of people suffer. 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:37.040 He notes. 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:40.440 The measure has the endorsement of the California Democratic Party, 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.080 but it comes as Governor Gavin Newsom and a wide 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:46.880 coalition of business groups, healthcare and teachers unions, as well 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:50.920 as Democratic gubernatorial candidate Javiard Bassera have all come out again. 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.960 I forgot he was running for governor. He's everyone did 0:08:55.200 --> 0:08:58.480 for it. Being just a little over what nine weeks away, 0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:02.480 sure as hell isn't campaigning, No, he's. 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:06.480 Not interested, arguing the measure could drive wealthy residents out 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:10.640 of California, reducing tax revenues and hurting state programs over 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:11.440 the long term. 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:16.000 This is not something that will allow us to be competitive, 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.280 and it cost hundreds of millions of dollars a year 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.360 in reduced revenue to the state, which put enormous pressure 0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:23.400 on those same programs. 0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.120 One of the few times out he's not even out 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.800 campaigning against it. He's busy doing podcasts with Big Gretch 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.840 and you can tell, because boy, that voice is gravelly. 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.960 Governor Newsom and I actually agree because Governor knows that 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:39.520 central Services will be the one that gets hurt of 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:40.200 his passes. 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:44.600 Election days November third, twenty twenty six, at the state Capitol, 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:48.479 covering local news that matters. Hey, Tom Wallace, Fox forty News. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:52.600 Johnny, let's get quickly into the campaign for fighting against 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:55.920 Prop thirty nine, because Ashley Zavala was there and she 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.240 had some interesting questions for alex Badia about the way 0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:02.800 that their frame the voter ID bill Prop thirty nine. 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:03.960 Here is casey. 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.080 Any Democratic leaders are officially kicking off the campaign against 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.880 the voter ID measure headed to voters this November. 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.559 US Senator Alex Padilla was at the rally here in Sacra. 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:14.640 I don't want case arey three political director ashans of 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:18.280 Allah was there. So how are both sides prepping for November? 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.800 Yeah, California Democrats very much making it clear today they 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:25.679 will make this proposal about President Donald trumpet. 0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:29.320 Of course, which is funny because when you look at 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:36.000 this subject, it's very similar to ballot harvesting, where the 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:40.080 Democrats assume that ballot harvesting would help them beat Republicans, 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:43.319 and what they found out is in practice it helps 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:48.920 the DSA beat their people by opposing voter ID. They 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.959 think they're going to stick it to the Republicans, when 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:54.719 in fact, if they killed this thing, they're giving the 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:59.000 DSA another tool to use to beat Democrats with. Because 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.800 don't forget we just had a special election yesterday in 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.800 the Bay Area to fill Eric's Wallwell seat and who 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:11.400 won not the Democrat that the Democratic members of Congress wanted. 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:14.480 The DSA candidate currently in the lead. 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:18.120 And the fight against him. US Senator Alex by the 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.680 headline today's no on Prop thirty nine event with other 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:26.160 Democratic state lawmakers, legislative leaders like Senate ProTem Moniqulimon and 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:28.920 as somebody speaker Robert Rives were also there now. Prop 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:32.520 thirty nine specifically would require California voters to start showing 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:35.120 their idea at the polls or provide the last four 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:37.320 digits of an ID when they mail in their ballot. 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:40.760 When you hear it presented that way, it sure seems like, 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.080 all right, that's not a big deal. Where do you 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:45.640 go that's. 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:49.840 Regarded as something as being semi important where they don't 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:54.160 require you to show picture ID the airport, the bank, 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.640 getting on a cruise ship, going on a military base, 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:01.480 going to costco rinting of. 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.720 Well, no one rents videos anymore, but you get the idea. 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.040 I think my old Blockbuster card did have my picture 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:09.360 on it. 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.200 Democrats say this will cost the state more money and 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:15.080 create identity. 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:19.240 There are people listening right now from the young generation 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.160 that don't even understand the concept of renting a video. 0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:28.680 Theft in other security risks. But their main message was 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:31.800 that this is basically President Donald Trump trying to bring 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:35.240 his voter suppression agenda to California. I'm quoting there, but 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:39.480 President Trump has actually not expressly endorsed Prop thirty nine. 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.880 At last check, he has yet to even speak at 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:43.480 all about Prop thirty nine. 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.720 He doesn't even know what Prop thirty nine is. 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:48.960 He's got bigger fish to fry right now than local 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:50.720 elections in California. 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:52.600 Yeah, how about ending this endless war. 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:54.200 I asked the. 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:56.560 Group of Democrats about that today. Here's what Senator by 0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:57.120 the said. 0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:01.120 I mean, I talk about Prop thirty nine yet, but 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:01.440 we know. 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:03.320 How sure this is all about Trump, even though Trump 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.240 has said nothing about this. 0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:08.320 This is their playbook. And by the way, this is 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:12.800 why the DSAY is eating their lunch. Because as screwed 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:16.960 up as the DSA is, at least they talk about issues, 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:21.000 they talk about public policy, they talk about subjects. All 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:24.160 the Democrats do is make Trump the central villain in 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:27.800 every story, including stories that he has nothing to do with. 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:33.240 It's the establishment that has failed to deliver over and 0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.800 over and over again, especially in California. These people in charge, 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.520 and they haven't done a damned thing. It's no wonder 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.200 that people are looking for an alternative, even if that 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.400 alternative is the Insanity Party. 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:48.400 It feels about vote by mail, he reminds us, at 0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:51.880 least on a weekly basis, he knows what he thinks 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.400 about California and the integative California's elections, and we're continuing 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.160 to suit and win to defend our honor. So yes, 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:02.280 this is part of the greater Trump Republican agenda, no 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:03.160 doubt the. 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:04.280 Proponents of this measure. 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:06.800 This all started because there is a build It didn't 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:08.880 passed out of the state Assembly. Is that even get 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:11.319 out of its first committee, and therefore the proponents launched 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:14.840 his whole effort. They say that they actually want Republicans 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:15.839 at the national. 0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:16.839 Level of the state out of this. 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:20.680 Specifically, they're saying that there's a clear line between this 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:21.920 and the say that, how would. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:22.240 You respond to that? 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:24.880 Yeah, I don't believe it. 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.840 You got to nationalize everything. I mean, it works for them. 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:34.600 Look how Gavin Newsom operated in the recall election, which 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:38.280 was supposed to be a referendum on his performance as governor, 0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:40.840 and it turned out to be a referendum on abortion. 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:43.680 You know, it's so funny is that this guy is 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:49.000 a backbencher, Alex Padilla, and he's trying so hard to 0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:52.840 be someone who is a bold face name, a famous politician, 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:57.800 and he does more media than so many members of 0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:00.280 the Senate, so many members of the California Dela Gation 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:03.760 into the House. Yet I still think if he walked 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:07.240 down Hollywood Boulevard, no one would know who he was. 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:12.000 I if you asked random people in Hollywood Boulevard who 0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:15.200 are your senators, you would have most of them, say 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:17.840 Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein. 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:22.640 Republican is some of them. And Carl Demyo is one 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.640 of the lead proponents who has noted Prop thirty nine 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.840 is different from President Trumps Save Act, the key difference 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:31.800 being the Save Act has more strict id requirements for 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:35.560 voter registration, requiring a passport or a birth certificate. Prop 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.880 thirty nine does not. Here's how Demayo responded to the 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:40.760 No on thirty nine campaigns rally today. 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:45.840 Here you have partisan politicians trying to inject division into 0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:49.440 what should be something that's quite unifying. In this in Washington, 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:53.720 the Save Act very aggressive, lots of mandates. Prop thirty 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.080 nine is a bipartisan response to that. It is a 0:15:56.200 --> 0:15:59.520 solution to voter id and that's why nearly half the 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.600 signature for Prop thirty nine came from Democrats and independents 0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:06.640 because it is a common sense, balanced approach to improving 0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:09.800 public trust. And confidence in our elections. You don't have 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:12.680 to like Donald Trump to vote yes on Prop thirty nine. 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:16.640 The same Steve Hilton approach. You can hate MAGA and 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:17.520 still vote for me. 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:24.000 Now, to be clear, no Democratic elected official in California 0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:26.920 has come out to support Prop thirty nine. Again, this 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.440 will be a fight between Republican and Democratic politicians heading 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.360 into November. This is a partisan issue. 0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:34.200 Sorry, we've got a couple months out. What are the 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:34.960 polls saying about it? 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:38.160 Yeah, so, Berkeley Igs actually just recently did one that 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:41.440 shows that voters could reject it. Fifty one percent of 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:44.920 respondents to that poll specifically said they would vote no, 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:48.360 versus the forty two percent who voted yes. In the 0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:52.160 poll of more than four thousand Californians, Berkeley Igs used 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:54.720 the actual language voters will see on the ballot, which 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:58.080 says it will prohibit citizens from voting without a government 0:16:58.120 --> 0:16:58.640 issued ID. 0:16:59.040 --> 0:16:59.920 Thanks Bob Bonta. 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:03.720 You know, this is another one of these issues, not 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:07.720 that anyone pays attention to him that James Carville says 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:12.160 the Democrats should embrace go back to the Clinton Democrats, 0:17:12.240 --> 0:17:15.200 go back to that crowd from the nineteen nineties, and 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:18.360 I think Carville speaks for a lot of them. Anytime 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:21.560 you see the Bill Clinton alums on TV, they tend 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:25.000 to be cut from a very different cloth than the 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:28.560 current crowd. But he doesn't see the problem with it. 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:32.440 He doesn't think it's necessary that he doesn't think that 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.920 there's a lot of widespread voter fraud going on. But 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:39.720 he says, I don't understand the opposition to it, because 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:42.800 when you oppose something like this, you make it seem 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:45.480 like you're trying to cheat the system. You make it 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:48.320 seem like you're trying to rig elections, and that's not 0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:49.040 a good look. 0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:55.000 Demayo and supporters of Prop thirty nine unsuccessfully try to 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:58.399 get a judge to change it. Obviously, that's why, because 0:17:58.520 --> 0:17:59.800 it doesn't look good on the ballot. 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.240 All right, Ashley, thank you so much for following them. 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:05.320 So there you go. The campaign against Prop thirty nine 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:09.960 has kicked off, and the face of it is Alex paedia. 0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:14.359 Well and Bob Bonta is probably the MVP for the 0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:18.120 No side because he did rig the election. He rigged 0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:21.600 the election by issuing a title and summary that is 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.960 meant to sink the initiative, meant to trick people into 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:28.240 voting against their own interests. Because when you ask the 0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:32.800 question normally, do you support a requirement a photo ID 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:36.640 requirement to vote in elections, the answer was yes, two 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:39.400 to one or more than two to one. But when 0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:43.920 you name it something else, preventing people from voting, act 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:46.399 or whatever it is, then of course you're going to 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:49.480 get a different result. Yeah, while we can either just 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:53.000 complain about this, or the people behind thirty nine can 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:56.080 start spending whatever money they have and getting as much 0:18:56.200 --> 0:18:59.119 earned media as they have to explain to people what 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:01.359 Prop thirty nine and really is if they want to 0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:04.440 guess this thing over the threshold, because it's not such 0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:06.840 a big gap that they can't still win this thing, 0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:09.239 but they got to put all the stops out right now. 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:11.720 And we can't just throw our hands up and blame Bonta. 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:15.760 It's close, that's for sure. And Randy, you have an 0:19:15.760 --> 0:19:20.720 announcement to make. We did it. We hit five thousand 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:24.560 subscribers on the channel. We are currently at five thousand 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:28.320 and three. That means that we have to fulfill our 0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:33.200 promise and eventually do a show from Imperial Beach the 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:37.320 Tijuana River Valley. We're not getting into the water, oh, boy, 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:41.280 the captain's ready. We're going sailing. I'm ready for the 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:49.400 Tijuana River, Katie, are you coming with us? We will 0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.160 start to have to plan that. Our idea is we're 0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:54.120 going to make Mike Nettter go with us because he's 0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:56.280 an expert in that area, and that'll be a very 0:19:56.359 --> 0:20:00.880 special podcast of the accountability podcast. What kind of boat 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:05.760 do you think Art's going to get us? Yeah, this 0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:08.119 is KABC. We can't even afford a dinghy. 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:10.520 If you'd like to email the show, you can do 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.440 so at Johnny Don't Like Show at gmail dot com. 0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:18.240 That's Johnny Don't Like Show at gmail dot com and Randy. 0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:20.600 If you want to watch us perform the show live, 0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:23.960 go to Johnny Don't Like dot Com.
