Larry Elder announced he was running for Governor of California just a few days ago. Then on Sunday, his campaign was notified by California’s Secretary of State that he is disqualified from running in the upcoming recall election and will not be added to the ballot. Why?
Because of “Redaction issues” with his tax returns.
Larry is leading in the polls!
After days of telling the media that they had already notified all candidates who had not qualified for the ticket, the Secretary of State sent an email at the final hour to Elder’s campaign late Sunday afternoon with the news.
Elder says he filed all paperwork in a timely manner and was never notified to be able to make the necessary revisions.
According to his campaign lawyers, this is the first time in the history of California, and possibly the country, that a candidate has been disqualified for redaction issues with tax returns.
Larry Elder, nationally syndicated radio host and newspaper columnist, bestselling author, award-winning documentary filmmaker, and candidate for governor of California, today filed suit against California Secretary of State Shirley N. Weber to protect his right to be a candidate in the special recall election scheduled for September 14, 2021.
Here’s a little joke for you:
What’s the difference between California and the Titanic?
When the Titanic sunk, the lights were on.
