"title": "State Audit: California Too Slow to Fix Unsafe Tap Water for More Than 900,000 Residents",
"headTitle": "KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>The water that comes out of the tap for more than 900,000 Californians is unsafe to drink and the state isn't acting fast enough to help clean it up, state auditors said in a report released Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thousands of water systems supply the state's nearly 39 million people, and about 5% of them contain some type of contaminant, like nitrates or arsenic, according to the audit. That means people can't safely drink the water or use it to cook or bathe. Most of the 370 failing systems are in economically disadvantaged communities, many in the Central Valley, the state's agricultural heartland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State Water Resources Control Board has provided at least $1.7 billion in grants since 2016 for design and construction to improve water systems. That could include building new treatment plants, consolidating water systems or other actions designed to improve water quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it took the board 33 months on average in 2021 for water system operators to complete the application process and receive money, the audit found — nearly double the time it took in 2017. The audit found that a lack of clear metrics and poor communication created confusion for water districts seeking help and slowed down the award process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The longer the board takes to fund projects, the more expensive those projects become. More importantly, delays increase the likelihood of negative health outcomes for Californians served by the failing water systems,” Acting State Auditor Michael Tilden wrote in a letter to the Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eileen Sobeck, executive director for the water board, told state auditors the board agrees the process could be clearer and faster. But she disagreed with the conclusion that the board hasn't acted with urgency to improve contaminated water systems, saying the board's “highest priority is advancing the human right to water.\" California made a right to safe drinking water state law in 2013. The water board has previously said it would need $4.5 billion to address all the needs through 2025.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the state has reduced the number of people who rely on contaminated water from 1.6 million in 2019 to less than 1 million today. It’s also provided $700 million in grants to water systems. It’s helped pay for construction projects in 90 communities and consolidation of 73 water systems, and begun streamlining the application process, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_11908869,news_11886536,science_1971582\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>E. Joaquin Esquivel, chair of the water board, said the audit’s finding that the board lacks urgency in addressing the problem is “salacious” and doesn’t reflect the “tremendous amount of progress” the board has made in helping water systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state sets requirements for more than 100 water contaminants, including nitrate, arsenic and E. coli, limiting the amount that can be in water. Some, like nitrates, come from excess fertilizer used by agriculture. Different contaminants can cause respiratory problems for infants, harm the liver and kidneys, and increase the risk of cancer. Even when water isn't safe to drink, people still have to pay the water bill, plus the added cost of buying bottled water or hauling it in from elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just because you're not drinking from the tap doesn't mean you don't have to pay for the access,\" said Kyle Jones, policy and legal director for the Community Water Center, which works to expand access to clean water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, created a $130 million fund in 2019 to improve drinking water systems, particularly those that serve lower-income communities. At the time, he called it a “moral disgrace\" that Californians couldn't rely on clean water to drink or bathe. His office didn't respond to an email Tuesday seeking comment on the audit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one example of the slow process, the audit found the water board wasn't checking in enough on a technical assistance project for a water system in Kern County. Ten months after the board had assigned a provider to help the district, no work had been completed, causing the board to look for another provider. In another case, it took the water board 14 months to figure out whether a water district in rural Northern California was eligible for grant funding to improve its drinking and wastewater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Water districts that took a survey from the auditor called the board's application process a “nightmare\" filled with red tape and unclear expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Claiborne, directing attorney for Leadership Counsel for Justice and Accountability, said many Californians have been fighting for decades for clean water to no avail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His organization advocates for access to safe and affordable drinking water for communities in the San Joaquin Valley and east Coachella Valley, and it has been hired as a legal and technical consultant for some of the projects that receive board funding. As both an advocate and a contractor on some projects, he agreed with the audit's findings that the board needs clear metrics to access its progress and set expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he said local governments need to step up as well, as they can delay projects to consolidate water systems or begin new construction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without cooperation from local governments and local water systems, you can't implement solutions,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

That means people can't safely drink the water or use it to cook or bathe. Most of the 370 failing systems are in economically disadvantaged communities, many in the Central Valley, the state's agricultural heartland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State Water Resources Control Board has provided at least $1.7 billion in grants since 2016 for design and construction to improve water systems. That could include building new treatment plants, consolidating water systems or other actions designed to improve water quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it took the board 33 months on average in 2021 for water system operators to complete the application process and receive money, the audit found — nearly double the time it took in 2017. The audit found that a lack of clear metrics and poor communication created confusion for water districts seeking help and slowed down the award process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The longer the board takes to fund projects, the more expensive those projects become. More importantly, delays increase the likelihood of negative health outcomes for Californians served by the failing water systems,” Acting State Auditor Michael Tilden wrote in a letter to the Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But she disagreed with the conclusion that the board hasn't acted with urgency to improve contaminated water systems, saying the board's “highest priority is advancing the human right to water.\" California made a right to safe drinking water state law in 2013. The water board has previously said it would need $4.5 billion to address all the needs through 2025.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the state has reduced the number of people who rely on contaminated water from 1.6 million in 2019 to less than 1 million today. It’s also provided $700 million in grants to water systems. It’s helped pay for construction projects in 90 communities and consolidation of 73 water systems, and begun streamlining the application process, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Joaquin Esquivel, chair of the water board, said the audit’s finding that the board lacks urgency in addressing the problem is “salacious” and doesn’t reflect the “tremendous amount of progress” the board has made in helping water systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state sets requirements for more than 100 water contaminants, including nitrate, arsenic and E. coli, limiting the amount that can be in water. Some, like nitrates, come from excess fertilizer used by agriculture. Different contaminants can cause respiratory problems for infants, harm the liver and kidneys, and increase the risk of cancer. Even when water isn't safe to drink, people still have to pay the water bill, plus the added cost of buying bottled water or hauling it in from elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just because you're not drinking from the tap doesn't mean you don't have to pay for the access,\" said Kyle Jones, policy and legal director for the Community Water Center, which works to expand access to clean water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, created a $130 million fund in 2019 to improve drinking water systems, particularly those that serve lower-income communities. At the time, he called it a “moral disgrace\" that Californians couldn't rely on clean water to drink or bathe. His office didn't respond to an email Tuesday seeking comment on the audit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one example of the slow process, the audit found the water board wasn't checking in enough on a technical assistance project for a water system in Kern County. Ten months after the board had assigned a provider to help the district, no work had been completed, causing the board to look for another provider. In another case, it took the water board 14 months to figure out whether a water district in rural Northern California was eligible for grant funding to improve its drinking and wastewater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Water districts that took a survey from the auditor called the board's application process a “nightmare\" filled with red tape and unclear expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Claiborne, directing attorney for Leadership Counsel for Justice and Accountability, said many Californians have been fighting for decades for clean water to no avail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His organization advocates for access to safe and affordable drinking water for communities in the San Joaquin Valley and east Coachella Valley, and it has been hired as a legal and technical consultant for some of the projects that receive board funding. As both an advocate and a contractor on some projects, he agreed with the audit's findings that the board needs clear metrics to access its progress and set expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he said local governments need to step up as well, as they can delay projects to consolidate water systems or begin new construction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without cooperation from local governments and local water systems, you can't implement solutions,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Greg Abbott. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Office of the Governor of California)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The bill signing comes a month after the U.S. Supreme Court \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2022/06/24/1102305878/supreme-court-abortion-roe-v-wade-decision-overturn\">overturned Roe v. Wade\u003c/a> and the constitutional right to have an abortion, and also \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/23/us/supreme-court-ny-open-carry-gun-law.html\">struck down a New York law \u003c/a>that placed strict limits on carrying concealed firearms in public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Newsom also signed a package of bills with more restrained impacts than SB 1327. They include measures that bar anyone from making more than three guns a year or making any guns with a 3D printer without obtaining a state-issued license. Other measures require schools to periodically inform parents about the safe storage of firearms, prohibit gun sales on state property, boost inspections of gun dealers, and add child and elder abuse to the list of crimes that block gun ownership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two weeks ago Newsom signed another bill introduced by San Francisco Democratic Assemblymember Phil Ting that allows individuals, as well as state and local governments, to sue gun manufacturers for negligence that results in injury or death. The bill creates a code of conduct for firearms makers and allows civil lawsuits for violations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new laws come amid a rise in gun violence in recent years — both in California and nationwide — and a spate of mass shootings in just the last few months, including one at a school in Uvalde, Texas, in late May that left 19 children and two teachers dead, and a July 4 massacre in Highland Park, Illinois, that killed seven people and injured dozens more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of California’s new gun control laws are more than likely to face legal challenges, some possibly making their way to the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To elevate his ongoing political jousting match with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott — an anti-abortion-rights, pro-gun-rights Republican — Newsom also ran an ad Friday \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/3570623-newsom-runs-ads-in-texas-newspapers-hitting-abbott-on-guns-abortion/\">in several Texas newspapers\u003c/a> repurposing a statement Abbott made \u003ca href=\"https://www.texastribune.org/2021/05/18/texas-heartbeat-bill-abortions-law/\">when he signed his state’s anti-abortion-rights law\u003c/a> last year. In the ad, the word “abortion” is crossed out and replaced with “gun violence” as the cause of children’s deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If Texas can ban abortion and endanger lives, California can ban deadly weapons of war and save lives,” Newsom said in a statement announcing the ad. “If Governor Abbott truly wants to protect the right to life, I urge him to follow California’s lead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ad follows a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6anO63fQyVc\">video message Newsom aired in Florida\u003c/a> last month attacking Gov. Ron DeSantis over his support for laws restricting LGBTQ+ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has flatly denied that these out-of-state ad campaigns are intended to promote his rumored run for president, but they have successfully garnered the attention of national media outlets and Democrats hungry for outspoken leaders willing to forcefully take on the Supreme Court, the gun industry and the Republican establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, Newsom has declared himself to be “pro-life,” borrowing the phrase used by anti-abortion-rights activists and turning it against them, the gun lobby and others who oppose restrictions on firearms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked Friday if he was considering a run for president, Newsom reiterated his previous position that he has “subzero” interest.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Wade\u003c/a> and the constitutional right to have an abortion, and also \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/23/us/supreme-court-ny-open-carry-gun-law.html\">struck down a New York law \u003c/a>that placed strict limits on carrying concealed firearms in public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Newsom also signed a package of bills with more restrained impacts than SB 1327. They include measures that bar anyone from making more than three guns a year or making any guns with a 3D printer without obtaining a state-issued license. Other measures require schools to periodically inform parents about the safe storage of firearms, prohibit gun sales on state property, boost inspections of gun dealers, and add child and elder abuse to the list of crimes that block gun ownership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two weeks ago Newsom signed another bill introduced by San Francisco Democratic Assemblymember Phil Ting that allows individuals, as well as state and local governments, to sue gun manufacturers for negligence that results in injury or death. The bill creates a code of conduct for firearms makers and allows civil lawsuits for violations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new laws come amid a rise in gun violence in recent years — both in California and nationwide — and a spate of mass shootings in just the last few months, including one at a school in Uvalde, Texas, in late May that left 19 children and two teachers dead, and a July 4 massacre in Highland Park, Illinois, that killed seven people and injured dozens more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of California’s new gun control laws are more than likely to face legal challenges, some possibly making their way to the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To elevate his ongoing political jousting match with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott — an anti-abortion-rights, pro-gun-rights Republican — Newsom also ran an ad Friday \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/3570623-newsom-runs-ads-in-texas-newspapers-hitting-abbott-on-guns-abortion/\">in several Texas newspapers\u003c/a> repurposing a statement Abbott made \u003ca href=\"https://www.texastribune.org/2021/05/18/texas-heartbeat-bill-abortions-law/\">when he signed his state’s anti-abortion-rights law\u003c/a> last year. In the ad, the word “abortion” is crossed out and replaced with “gun violence” as the cause of children’s deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If Texas can ban abortion and endanger lives, California can ban deadly weapons of war and save lives,” Newsom said in a statement announcing the ad. “If Governor Abbott truly wants to protect the right to life, I urge him to follow California’s lead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ad follows a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6anO63fQyVc\">video message Newsom aired in Florida\u003c/a> last month attacking Gov. Ron DeSantis over his support for laws restricting LGBTQ+ rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has flatly denied that these out-of-state ad campaigns are intended to promote his rumored run for president, but they have successfully garnered the attention of national media outlets and Democrats hungry for outspoken leaders willing to forcefully take on the Supreme Court, the gun industry and the Republican establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, Newsom has declared himself to be “pro-life,” borrowing the phrase used by anti-abortion-rights activists and turning it against them, the gun lobby and others who oppose restrictions on firearms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked Friday if he was considering a run for president, Newsom reiterated his previous position that he has “subzero” interest.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Perhaps \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB1142\">chief among those efforts is Senate Bill 1142\u003c/a> from Senators Anna Caballero, D-Salinas, and Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley, to create an \"Abortion Practical Support Fund\" to help abortion-seekers with costs such as travel and child care, and to fund public research into expanding access to reproductive health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins told KQED on Friday that those bills are part of ensuring California's reproductive health rights are guaranteed in every corner of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The whole purpose for the legislation that you have seen, more than 13 bills, and the money in the budget, is to shore up our foundational health care system because even in California\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> – \u003c/span>40 million people, 58 counties\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> – \u003c/span>not every county has easy access to actual abortion procedures,\" Atkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We already know that we have gaps in health care in California for individuals,\" she added. \"We're trying to do it all to make sure that we are covering bases for Californians, but also for those who are going to come here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Attorney General Rob Bonta published a video reminder that abortion is legal in California, adding, \"I will continue to use the full force of the law and the full force of my office to ensure this always remains true.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Coalition Promises\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Those protections extend up the coast to other Pacific states, too. Newsom, along with the governors of Oregon and Washington — Kate Brown and Jay Inslee — signed a Multi-State Commitment to Reproductive Freedom, which they announced in a statement Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We'll fight like hell to protect your rights and your safety,\" Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're going to work with our legislators, with our providers and with our patient advocates,\" Gov. Inslee said, \"and we're going to expand access to abortion services to the people in need.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will resist intrusions by out-of-state prosecutors, law enforcement or vigilantes trying to investigate patients receiving services in our states,\" Gov.

The programs, which remain active today, bring activities and services to public school buildings in New York City, ranging from after-school programs for children to life skills classes for adults. The programs were developed as a community-driven effort to reduce crime, which was at an all-time high in the '80s and early '90s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco was the first California city to start a Beacon program of its own in 1996. Oakland Unified started its community schools program in 2011 with the intent of becoming the first district in the nation in which every school is a community school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified will receive $66 million to expand and supplement its community school network to 53 of the district’s 81 schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles Unified launched an initiative in 2019 to convert 30 schools into community schools, with full-time coordinators and health services as part of its agreement with the teachers union to end a strike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>West Contra Costa Unified, which serves Richmond, El Cerrito, San Pablo and surrounding cities, started adopting the community schools model in 2007, and ramped up efforts around 2015. Now the district has 22 community schools of its 52 schools. It was awarded around $30 million through the Community Schools Partnership Program to continue its services.[aside label=\"More Education Stories\" tag=\"education\"]The city of San Pablo, where several West Contra Costa schools are located, launched its own initiative in 2011 to turn its six schools into community schools. City officials in 2013 chose to build a new community center directly adjacent to the school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to the basic-needs services, the existing community schools in West Contra Costa Unified host programs, adult classes and tutoring in the evenings and on the weekends, said William McGee, the district’s director of the Office of African American Student Achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those in the process of becoming community schools, the top priority for the grant funds is to hire a school community coordinator. That person acts as the school’s liaison between organizations and state and county organizations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another rule of the grant is that schools must establish all four community school “pillars”: integrating services, including trauma-informed health services; expanding learning time; sharing decision-making among educators and administrators; and engaging families and the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state board added additional commitments: a willingness to share power, the use of “restorative practices rather than punitive, exclusionary discipline,” and an appreciation of a community’s culture, heritage and strengths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helms has a partnership with nonprofit counseling service Bay Area Community Resources to station full-time therapists, social workers and mentors on the campus, which staff refer to as a “care team.” They do mediations and home visits, and will go out looking for truant students, Synnott said. The school also makes someone from the care team available daily in case a student is in crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helms, along with the other West Contra Costa community schools, collects referrals from teachers and school staff who believe a child is in need of services, which go to the care team to coordinate a solution. Students and their parents also can submit referrals for themselves, McGee said, but it's up to them whether they want to accept the services they are offered. If a child is referred to the care team because they are \"acting out,\" McGee said the goal is to avoid having to suspend the student.[pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Jessica Petrilli, principal, Helms Middle School\"]'A community school is the dream.'[/pullquote]They’ll also look for trends to see whether changes need to be made, Synnott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the school had a high number of students who had anxiety returning to school, and who were grieving loved ones who recently died, she said, so the care team held support groups for students who shared experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Helms had already been a community school for years prior to the pandemic, the school was well-equipped to serve families who fell on hard times, Synnott said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The care team continued to meet and come up with plans for students who were struggling, and the school already had established partnerships with organizations and agencies. Families also trusted the teachers and school staff they already knew, and felt comfortable reaching out for services, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A community school is the dream,” Petrilli said. “Because to work at schools like Helms, like so many others that serve high-needs populations, you already have an attitude that I have to do whatever it takes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

That person acts as the school’s liaison between organizations and state and county organizations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another rule of the grant is that schools must establish all four community school “pillars”: integrating services, including trauma-informed health services; expanding learning time; sharing decision-making among educators and administrators; and engaging families and the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state board added additional commitments: a willingness to share power, the use of “restorative practices rather than punitive, exclusionary discipline,” and an appreciation of a community’s culture, heritage and strengths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helms has a partnership with nonprofit counseling service Bay Area Community Resources to station full-time therapists, social workers and mentors on the campus, which staff refer to as a “care team.” They do mediations and home visits, and will go out looking for truant students, Synnott said. The school also makes someone from the care team available daily in case a student is in crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Helms, along with the other West Contra Costa community schools, collects referrals from teachers and school staff who believe a child is in need of services, which go to the care team to coordinate a solution. Students and their parents also can submit referrals for themselves, McGee said, but it's up to them whether they want to accept the services they are offered. If a child is referred to the care team because they are \"acting out,\" McGee said the goal is to avoid having to suspend the student.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gov. Gavin Newsom has advanced to the November general election for governor in California, according to The Associated Press.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As expected, Gov. Gavin Newsom cruised to a solid first-place finish in the primary election for governor. He will face off against Republican State Sen. Brian Dahle in the fall, making him the prohibitive favorite to win a second four-year term. With 48% of precincts reporting, Newsom is winning 56% of the vote to 16% for Dahle.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1534380894047322112\">In a series of tweets\u003c/a>, Gov. Newsom wrote, “Across the country, Republicans are attacking our fundamental rights as Americans. Destroying democracy, stripping a woman of the right to choose, and standing idly by as gun violence claims far too many lives. CA is the antidote — leading with compassion, common-sense and science. Treasuring diversity, defending democracy, and protecting our planet. Here’s to continuing that fight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Across the country, Republicans are attacking our fundamental rights as Americans. Destroying democracy, stripping a woman of the right to choose, and standing idly by as gun violence claims far too many lives. (1/2)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/GavinNewsom/status/1534380894047322112?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 8, 2022\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In third place is former Democrat Michael Shellenberger, now a No Party Preference candidate who could have appealed to moderate and even conservative voters in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Under California’s “top two” primary system, the first- and second-place finishers in all statewide races, regardless of party, will face off in November. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The margin of the governor’s first-place finish Tuesday was in many ways foreshadowed by the ease with which he beat back last year’s effort to recall him midway through his third year in office. Last September, 62% of California voters voted no on the recall, essentially identical to the 62% who voted for Newsom over Republican challenger John Cox in the 2018 gubernatorial election.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Like elected officials at all levels, Newsom is facing headwinds from the pandemic, gas prices and inflation, in addition to voter concerns about quality-of-life issues including homelessness and public safety. But Newsom’s campaign ads remained mostly positive, like one touting his “\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnL1YymwO5Y\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Courage Through Crisis\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” where he focused on California’s resilience, with a promise to reflect the state’s values, like diversity, protecting the environment and following science.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Newsom overcame lingering unhappiness with his handling of the pandemic and other problems, notably the Employment Development Department’s epic mishandling of \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">the federally funded Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where EDD paid some $20 billion in fraudulent unemployment claims and gummed up payments to those in need while investigations took place.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As the incumbent in a solidly Democratic state, Newsom benefited from an overwhelming financial advantage over his rivals. Through May, the Newsom for Governor campaign had $23 million cash on hand, most of it raised last year when Newsom faced a recall. By comparison, Sen. Dahle had just $392,485 in the bank at the end of May, while Shellenberger had a similar cash-on-hand total of $320,114.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dahle represents a sprawling state senate district that includes all or part of 11 mostly rural counties. He won the endorsement of the state Republican Party and is in sync with many of its positions, including opposition to abortion, saying \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://envirovoters.org/archives/scorecard/2019/senate/dahle/index.html\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">climate change\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is not the primary cause of California’s wildfires and blaming voter-approved ballot measures for the recent uptick in property crime. His positions and campaign slogan, “Restoring California,” may appeal to the 24% of voters registered as Republican, but he is unlikely to approach the percentage needed to win in November.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom cruised to a solid first-place finish in the primary election for governor. He will face off against Republican State Sen.

Newsom wrote, “Across the country, Republicans are attacking our fundamental rights as Americans. Destroying democracy, stripping a woman of the right to choose, and standing idly by as gun violence claims far too many lives. CA is the antidote — leading with compassion, common-sense and science.

Last September, 62% of California voters voted no on the recall, essentially identical to the 62% who voted for Newsom over Republican challenger John Cox in the 2018 gubernatorial election.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Like elected officials at all levels, Newsom is facing headwinds from the pandemic, gas prices and inflation, in addition to voter concerns about quality-of-life issues including homelessness and public safety. But Newsom’s campaign ads remained mostly positive, like one touting his “\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnL1YymwO5Y\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Courage Through Crisis\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” where he focused on California’s resilience, with a promise to reflect the state’s values, like diversity, protecting the environment and following science.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Newsom overcame lingering unhappiness with his handling of the pandemic and other problems, notably the Employment Development Department’s epic mishandling of \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">the federally funded Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where EDD paid some $20 billion in fraudulent unemployment claims and gummed up payments to those in need while investigations took place.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As the incumbent in a solidly Democratic state, Newsom benefited from an overwhelming financial advantage over his rivals. Through May, the Newsom for Governor campaign had $23 million cash on hand, most of it raised last year when Newsom faced a recall. By comparison, Sen. Dahle had just $392,485 in the bank at the end of May, while Shellenberger had a similar cash-on-hand total of $320,114.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dahle represents a sprawling state senate district that includes all or part of 11 mostly rural counties. He won the endorsement of the state Republican Party and is in sync with many of its positions, including opposition to abortion, saying \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://envirovoters.org/archives/scorecard/2019/senate/dahle/index.html\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">climate change\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is not the primary cause of California’s wildfires and blaming voter-approved ballot measures for the recent uptick in property crime. His positions and campaign slogan, “Restoring California,” may appeal to the 24% of voters registered as Republican, but he is unlikely to approach the percentage needed to win in November.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
