Rep. Antonio González (R-Ohio) is the seventh House member to retire in the 2022 cycle without seeking another office. Also, Reps. Kevin Brady (R-Texas), Cheri Bustos (D-Ill.), Ron Kind (D-Wis.), Ann Kirkpatrick (D-Ariz.), Tom Reed (R-N.Y.) and Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas). — PolitiTweet.org

The area encompassing the proposed breakaway state of Jefferson — in southern Oregon and far northern California — had 19 of 22 counties voting yes on recalling CA Gov. Gavin Newsom. Three Jefferson-designated CA counties voted no on the recall — Humboldt, Lake and Mendocino. — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing particularly newsy about this, but looking at the California gubernatorial recall results map, am reminded how big San Bernardino County is. Most land-mass of any mainland U.S. county. Larger than nine states. And slightly larger than Costa Rica. — PolitiTweet.org

@jennifernvictor @Prof_BearB D and R House leadership previously have tried to dissuade members from doing this — no matter who held the majority. Was seen as a mutually-assured-destruction type scenario, with each side dangerously upping the ante. But could become more routine now post Trump, Jan. 6, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

@KennethBaer A Newsom-vs.-Kamala Harris Democratic primary fight would be something. They come from the same San Francisco political circles, employing overlapping groups of consultants. And each probably knows where the political bodies are buried. — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Quayle bookends the Trump presidency. The 1989-93 GOP vice president visited Trump Tower pre-inauguration, in late 2016. Now he's emerged as a key player in Woodward/Costa book "Peril," counseling then-VP Mike Pence against Electoral College vote counting shenanigans. https://t.co/KJC9OKUOig — PolitiTweet.org

@jennifernvictor @Prof_BearB That is absolutely the case. Without getting into the specifics of AOC's situation, House members are generally loath to sit in judgment of each other. It's human nature to a degree. But allows for a cramped, limited approach to enforcing congressional ethics rules. — PolitiTweet.org

Del Norte County, along the Oregon state line, is the only coastal California county that backed the failed recall effort of Gov. Gavin Newsom (D). It's passing 58%-42%, with ballot-counting to come. Of course, Del Norte's total population is less than 30,000 people. — PolitiTweet.org

Besides CA Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), recall episode winners include: @Korinke for crunching the #s and arguing prophetically the recall effort was doomed to lose. @GarrySouth as the leading voice against Dems fielding a prominent replacement candidate. https://t.co/4uJaFBfeaj — PolitiTweet.org

@mirandayaver Got a way to go, but it's trending the way of the state of Virginia. Enough residual Republicans that the party's chances can't be completely discounted. But Dems start as the favorite. — PolitiTweet.org

I had thought Modoc County, in California's far northwest corner, would have the strongest recall Yes vote (to remove Dem Gov. Gavin Newsom from office.) So far, though, looking like Lassen County, just to the south. which is at 82% Yes, 18% No. — PolitiTweet.org

Early still, but "Yes" in the California gubernatorial recall is winning only in Glenn, Tehama, and Trinity counties. These are sparsely-populated counties far north of the Bay Area. Can't extrapolate statistically, but anecdotally makes clear this is going Newsom's way. — PolitiTweet.org

@Howard_Lovy I hope it's a "fast" procedure. Best I can come up with. — PolitiTweet.org

One of the late Norm Macdonald's best SNL roles was this "West Side Story" spoof. The straight-man role has him wondering how fellow gang members come up with song-and-dance numbers on the spot. (Funnier in the clip than me writing about it.) https://t.co/JiWRuGYSxQ — PolitiTweet.org

@tomlobianco Yes! Found it some years back when cleaning out the old family house, and read it on my next plane flight (which drew a few stares from passengers.) A period piece, but in a good way. Strong encapsulation of early 1990s-era political fights. — PolitiTweet.org

Twenty years ago today the most prominent issue on Capitol Hill was the race for House minority whip, between Democratic Reps. Nancy Pelosi (CA) and Steny Hoyer (MD). The next day's world-altering events delayed the vote by a month, with Pelosi winning. https://t.co/yw9jc7RfcC — PolitiTweet.org

Ex-Sen. Adlai Stevenson III (D-Ill.) has died at 90. Senator for a decade ending in January 1981, he hailed from a prominent political family. Great-grandfather Adlai E. Stevenson I was VP 1893-97. Father Adlai Stevenson II was IL governor and two-time Dem presidential nominee. — PolitiTweet.org

If California Democrats had power over congressional redistricting, rather than an independent commission, what's the most aggressive gerrymander they could draw for the state's soon-to-be 52 House seats? — PolitiTweet.org
