California Gov. Gavin Newsom to face recall election

5. I read a few months ago that the dark money behind the recall was funded by Newt Gingrich

and fellow fascists. I'm optimistic this fail spectacularly, regardless when it is in play.

I definitely have my "issues" with a number of "stupid" things he's said and done, other wise referred to as "unforced errors". But as I remind my friends and neighbors who are all low income seniors, never would we have received the benefits we've been awarded during the pandemic in terms of Cal Fresh (ebt) and just this week an extra $600 in California Stimulus checks if any Republican governed our state.

Yeah he's said a number of cringe worthy statements, gaffs, got busted attending soirees just as he ordered tougher restrictions in the middle of the shutdown, BUT corrections and apologies as appropriate were made.

In the meantime, we have Democratic Party control of the Executive and State Legislature, which we absolutely must maintain, and I remind them what it was like for the poor and low wage earners, fixed income seniors etc under Republican control.

The reminders shuts them up pretty quick and then I don't hear complaints any more, these checks and temporary food stamp increases had significantly helped us throughout all of this.
