I'd suggested that Elder's vote *percentage* would be higher than polls suggested, bc only candidate votes are counted and many Dems were skipping the replacement question. Sure enough, he's at 47%, which this take emphasizes. But... https://t.co/xVxEKuEZuW https://t.co/3dzPyGhvd6 — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, it feels like 2003 is remembered as "Californians were so angry they elected a celebrity!" It was more complicated than that, and Schwarzenegger put in work to convince people he would be a competent governor. — PolitiTweet.org

... in actual *votes,* Elder is winding up where the polls suggested. 4 million voters (in count so far) skipped the second question. So, 26% of voters who cast recall ballots picked Elder, while 44% picked no candidate. Polling was dead on. — PolitiTweet.org
