	VOTE "NO" ON RECALL, "NO" ON RACISM, C.T. WEBER for GOVERNOR (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The first and most important is the fatal flaw in California's recall process, combining the election on recall with an election for a replacement in which, if the recall gets more "yes" votes, the candidate with the largest number of votes is elected governor.
		Peace and Freedom Party also opposes the recall effort because of the political reality of what that effort is: an attempt to seize the governorship by right-wing extremists opposed to the rights of labor, of women and of racial and national minorities.
		A vote for "No" on the recall combined with a vote for C.T. Weber, the Peace and Freedom Party member running for governor, will be simultaneously a vote against the undemocratic recall process and a vote for the democratic principles that Gray Davis ignores.
