All I can say is good luck with that  
Even if he put all his money into that project it would fail.

He claims to have gathered a staggering 1.3 million signatures – more than 7% of California’s vote-eligible population – of which he formally delivered just a small initial consignment earlier this week.

more electoral votes from the rest of California outside of San Fran and LA would help us all.
