It looks like our governor is anticipating unrest after the polls close on Tuesday. I really am kind of afraid of what is going to happen post election.
SACRAMENTO Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday that California is taking precautions in case of civil unrest on election night amid an emotional and partisan presidential campaign, in a state where voters overwhelmingly oppose President Donald Trump.
"As it relates to making sure people are safe, making sure not only the process of voting is a safe and healthy one, but keeping people safe after the election for whatever may occur, the answer is yes, we are always gaming out different scenarios and making sure that we are prepared, the governor said when asked about possible election night chaos.
