California Recall: Tomorrow's the Big Day

Who's it gonna be? Tomorrow's the day. Arnie's in good spirits and Maria is standing by her man. Gray Davis is hoping for a miracle. Whatever happened to Bustamante? We haven't heard a peep out of him for days.

Our view: Vote no on recall. Vote no on Prop. 54. We take no position on who should win if the recall succeeds.

Here are the most likely choices - let the voters decide.



Update: Arnold is pulling out the big guns. He's got Eunice Shriver in California making the round of tv interviews. Smart move.

Our prediction: Davis will lose big, Arnold will win handily.

Voter registration for the recall election is at an all time high:

Tuesday's election could see a swell of voters at the polls. Registrations are at a record high for a governor's race, with 15.4 million residents eligible to vote, according to Secretary of State Kevin Shelley. Of those, 385,000 have registered since early August. Overall, about 43% were registered Democrats, 35% were registered Republicans and 16% declined to state their party.

Additionally, more than 2 million absentee ballots have been cast as of today, about a million fewer than were sent out, Shelley's office said.

Due to the large number of absentee ballots, the results may not be in for a while.
