Would reform California's recall process by eliminating the simultaneous successor election that currently appears on recall ballots. Under the current system, voters decide both whether to recall an officer and who should replace them, allowing a replacement to be chosen by a slim plurality rather than majority support. If adopted, when a state officer is recalled, the office would be filled according to existing constitutional succession rules (such as the Lieutenant Governor becoming Governor), removing what supporters call political gamesmanship from the recall process.
