California Shows Arnold That He Is Not The Last Action Hero
People Of California Send Message To The Terminator

Arnold's popularity and support has lessened each time he opens his mouth. As one of the most popular Governors ever elected he quickly forgot his promises to California working families. He promised anyone he talked with what ever he thought they wanted, knowing all along he had no plan to keep his promises. His special election was to benefit Arnold's special interest corporate groups, cost the California taxpayers somewhere near $90 million dollars. The people of California finally decided to take matters into their own hands and show the Governor how they felt about the stupidity of calling this special election. All of the propositions on the special election ballot were defeated.

California:  8  Arnold and his Corporate Special Interests:  0
