Why do California conservatives think recalling Gavin Newsom will give them the results they want ?
The people wanting to recall Gavin Newsom and remove him from office have until March 17, 2021 to gather nearly 1.5 million signatures in order to launch a special election. However have these conservatives even done their research on California? Gavin Newsom defeated John Cox by nearly 3 million votes in 2018. Much of California lives on the California coast in San Diego County, Orange County, LA, Central Coast, Bay Area, and Sacramento, and many people in those counties are blue voters. Obviously many of these voters would vote “No” on the recall. California Democrats also control over 2/3 of the State Assembly and over 2/3 of the State Senate, which would make it easy for the State Legislature to impeach and remove a Republican who replaces Newsom. When Gray Davis was recalled in 2003, people thought California was saved but then this state elected Jerry Brown in 2010, and 2014 and then Newsom in 2018. Even if Newsom was recalled and removed from office, people forget about what the left does and then vote the same way again. Josh Newman, a state Senator was recalled and removed from office in 2018 but ran again in 2020 and won again. So how does removing Newsom help conservatives in California in any way?
