His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Government is run by state employees, not the Legislature.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A monumental parole decision\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The parole board's decision in the case of Sirhan Sirhan was immediately seized upon by Republicans candidates who have also sought to make crime rates and larger criminal justice policy a key issue in the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, governors have the final say on major parole decisions, so it’ll be left to Newsom — or the person who replaces him — to decide Sirhan’s fate. Newsom says he’ll review the parole board’s final recommendation before deciding, but Republicans hoping to replace Newsom see a good wedge issue, and are calling on him to reverse the decision \u003cem>now\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You may think Sirhan Sirhan should or should not be paroled. Reasonable people can disagree about that. But oh, boy, politics are incredibly tied up with this,\" said Robert Weisberg, co-director of the Stanford Criminal Justice Center. He said recent governors, Republican and Democrat, have taken very different approaches to parole decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[Former Gov.] Gray Davis just didn't want anybody to be paroled. Schwarzenegger changed things a little. [Former Gov. Jerry] Brown changed things considerably,\" Weisberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11886134 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/GettyImages-2586310-1020x740.jpg']Newsom, Weisberg said, has taken a slightly more cautious approach to parole decisions than Jerry Brown did, and hasn't hesitated to reverse parole recommendations, as he did for two followers of cult leader Charles Manson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whatever happens with Sirhan, one big policy reversal that could come with a Republican governor is the resumption of capital punishment, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11732605/gov-newsom-halts-executions-opponents-call-move-an-abuse-of-power\">which Newsom put on hold shortly after he took office\u003c/a>. A new governor could instantly reverse that, but Weisberg said it's unlikely that executions would resume immediately: He noted that any new governor would only have about a year in office before the next gubernatorial election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I suspect if a new governor lifts the moratorium, it's going to be largely symbolic, certainly in the very short term in which the newly elected governor serves,\" because, Weisberg said, defense lawyers would ramp up legal appeals to slow down the process.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The bully pulpit\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Genest, the former Republican finance director, agrees with Weisberg that the biggest change in criminal justice policy with a new governor might be mostly symbolic. He said a new governor couldn't change most of the criminal justice reforms passed by voters and lawmakers in recent years — but they could use the bully pulpit to change the conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yeah, the governor can't do anything about the crime laws without getting the people engaged in demanding that we fight crime,\" he said. \"But until you have a governor who's willing to take those stands, you can't start improving that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even a short-term governor could make an impact on the courts and other policy through appointments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's thousands and thousands of appointments that the governor makes, including judges,\" said Williamson, the former Brown aide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So all of a sudden, you could have our courts stacked with super-conservative judges. As you see in the federal government, climate change policies could be impacted because the governor has appointees on the California Air Resources Board,\" Williamson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, she notes, judges aren’t the only appointments a governor makes. A new governor could fire the heads of agencies overseeing health, the environment, schools — pretty much everything.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11886431 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/GettyImages-1234716783-1020x599.jpg']There’s also the potential for less quantifiable impacts, said Daniel Zingale, who worked as a policy adviser for both Schwarzenegger and Newsom. He said state agencies could see a brain drain if staff members are demoralized by a new governor’s approach to policies like health care or pandemic response.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think many of the current people are just hanging on out of dedication to fighting the pandemic. So, if they felt like a new leader came in and didn't have that as a priority, you'll probably have some exodus,\" Zingale said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Kent agreed, calling the potential for an exodus of career state workers \"one of the most devastating effects, far greater than a temporary loss of this program or that payment,\" because, she said, it's much harder to replace experience and expertise than to reverse a policy decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The state budget\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>And then there’s the budget. A new governor would take office at the end of October, right as the administration is normally starting to prepare a spending proposal, which must be unveiled by law in early January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That budget proposal would be a new governor’s biggest opportunity to put a stamp on state government, said Lanhee Chen, a Republican running for state controller and a fellow at the Hoover Institution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is a way of sending a strong message about what the priorities of an administration are and where the administration is going to fight with a Legislature,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11885994,news_11885679]Former administration officials on both sides of the aisle agree that, if a Republican wins the recall, a stalemate over the budget with Democratic lawmakers is all but inevitable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could lead to budget negotiations dragging on beyond the July 1 start of the fiscal year, said Genest, the GOP former finance director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He argued that while a late budget isn’t ideal and could harm private companies that do business with the state, it wouldn't affect most Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The state has a long history of late budgets and there's really nothing dramatic that happens with a late budget,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williamson disagreed, noting that schools must plan their spending months in advance and that if state agencies run out of appropriated money, they could be forced to lay off workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You know, you could have a situation where a school district says, 'Well, we don't know what the state budget situation looks like, so we are going to cut sports and arts and after-school programs,'\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, a new governor and state lawmakers could put politics aside and try to find common ground. One former Republican Assembly leader said he would urge any new governor to search for areas of agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you’re governor, if you cannot work with the Legislature, you cannot solve problems,\" said former San Luis Obispo Assemblymember Sam Blakeslee, who served during the tenure of the last, and only, governor to win a recall election — Arnold Schwarzenegger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't have a dictatorship, we don't have powers conveyed to a governor to unilaterally solve problems,\" he said. \"An effective governor is someone who could work with the legislative branch.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Since his recall win in 2003, the GOP's share of the electorate has shrunk from 35% to 24%, and Democrats now control a supermajority of the state Legislature. Meanwhile, some of Schwarzenegger's signature policy achievements — including on climate change and political reform — remain unpopular with many Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at the beginning, says former Schwarzenegger communications director Rob Stutzman, even those who hadn't voted for the movie star were excited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\"\u003c/b>I wouldn't say the Republican party completely coalesced around him [during the recall campaign],\" Stutzman said. \"But Schwarzenegger captured the imagination — even beyond Republicans — of the potential of him.

Schwarzenegger, the Terminator, show up and claim he was going to fix the state, he was going to clean house and he was going to restructure government so it worked more like a business,\" recalled Sam Blakeslee, a Republican elected to the Assembly shortly after Schwarzenegger took office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Blakeslee, who eventually became the Assembly Republican leader before being elected to the state Senate, says it wasn’t just Republicans who were optimistic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I remember talking to lobbyists and fellow Republicans, even Democrats, who were genuinely excited to see what he could get done,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But governing is different from campaigning, and Schwarzenegger soon found himself faced with a massive budget deficit, in part because he repealed that car tax.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his first year, Schwarzenegger had political wind at his back, and managed to convince voters to borrow $15 billion to close the spending gap. But one year later, his effort to go around the state Legislature with another series of ballot measures was crushed by organized labor, which unleashed a ferocious opposition campaign. Voters resoundingly rejected Schwarzenegger's package that, among other things, would have curbed state spending and weakened public employee unions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After losing that ballot fight, Schwarzenegger brought more powerful, experienced Democrats into his administration — \u003ca href=\"https://capitolweekly.net/schwarzenegger-picks-key-davis-aide-susan-kennedy-as-new-chief-of-staff-sparking-anger-among-some-republicans/\">including a new chief of staff\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Well, that was the point when a lot of Republicans broke with Schwarzenegger,\" said Blakeslee, who noted that the former governor didn't just have Democratic advisers — he actually listened to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Arnold embraced their perspective,\" he said. \"And a lot of Republicans were aghast and deeply confused because they literally thought they had voted for and had one type of governor at the top of the ticket and woke up the next day and found out he was someone altogether different.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Budget fights with both parties in the state Legislature would color Schwarzenegger’s entire tenure —but another former Republican Assembly leader during that time, Connie Conway, said she saw his willingness to listen to all sides as one of his major strengths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conway credits Schwarzenegger for raising up the voices of minority Republicans during budget negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I always appreciated the fact that I feel that Gov. Schwarzenegger was inclusive. Everybody's opinion did matter ... It's part of his DNA,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But things got a lot more complicated between the governor and the GOP near the end of his first term. Months before he won reelection, Schwarzenegger signed Assembly Bill 32, California's landmark climate change bill, which was passed largely on party lines and set the stage for the state's cap and trade program. It remains deeply controversial among Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"recall-election\"]Still, Blakeslee notes that Schwarzenegger was able to get some GOP lawmakers on board with other carbon-reduction legislation.

[and] promised not to raise taxes, but he did raise taxes,\" Stutzman said. \"So, yeah, at that point, I think Republicans were getting frustrated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there were Schwarzenegger's successful political reform efforts — achievements that may have undercut an already waning Republican party in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, in 2008, Schwarzenegger wrote a ballot measure that took legislative redistricting powers away from lawmakers and put them in the hands of an independent commission. Then, in 2010 — as he prepared to leave office — Schwarzenegger backed a ballot measure that ended party primaries in California and allowed the top two candidates to move on to the general election, leaving neither party with a guaranteed spot in the runoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allan Zaremberg, CEO of the California Chamber of Commerce, said the initiatives did what Schwarzenegger and other backers had wanted: They opened the door to electing more centrist politicians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether the changes were positive for the Republican Party is another question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We, as well as the governor, were concerned about making sure that the lines were fairly drawn to represent communities of interest as opposed to, you know, 'Can you protect my seat,' which happened all the time when you had incumbents drawing the lines,\" he said. \"You want to have as many people participate in the election as possible and get the candidate who appeals to the majority of the voters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stutzman also sees those measures as a win because they stripped power from both political parties. He said Schwarzenegger achieved other important victories, too, like reforming workers’ compensation laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By and large, I put Arnold up there, his Republican governor record, with just about any Republican governor we've had,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of now, he’s also the last GOP governor California has seen.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Then, in 2010 — as he prepared to leave office — Schwarzenegger backed a ballot measure that ended party primaries in California and allowed the top two candidates to move on to the general election, leaving neither party with a guaranteed spot in the runoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allan Zaremberg, CEO of the California Chamber of Commerce, said the initiatives did what Schwarzenegger and other backers had wanted: They opened the door to electing more centrist politicians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether the changes were positive for the Republican Party is another question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We, as well as the governor, were concerned about making sure that the lines were fairly drawn to represent communities of interest as opposed to, you know, 'Can you protect my seat,' which happened all the time when you had incumbents drawing the lines,\" he said. \"You want to have as many people participate in the election as possible and get the candidate who appeals to the majority of the voters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stutzman also sees those measures as a win because they stripped power from both political parties. He said Schwarzenegger achieved other important victories, too, like reforming workers’ compensation laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By and large, I put Arnold up there, his Republican governor record, with just about any Republican governor we've had,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

She says Gov. Gavin Newsom wasn’t decisive enough in trying to restart in-person education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think he decisively, essentially, with the stroke of a pen, closed schools last spring when it was likely the right thing to do in the immediacy,” Bacigalupi said. \"But he took no decisive action to get them back up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, Newsom never ordered California schools to close, though his March 2020 \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/3.19.20-attested-EO-N-33-20-COVID-19-HEALTH-ORDER.pdf\">statewide stay-at-home order\u003c/a> essentially had that effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacigalupi says she heard from scores of frustrated parents — many of them progressive Democrats like herself — who signed the petition for a gubernatorial recall election. Bacigalupi says she never had the opportunity to sign the petition, and never sought it out, but understands why other parents did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"recall-election\"]“I voted for Gov. Newsom when he ran [in 2018]. I have supported Democrats my whole life,” she said. “But I understand parents who are in the same boat as me, who are supporting this purely because of what happened with their kids this year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s handling of education has helped fuel the recall effort, and been a key talking point for recall candidates like \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11883011/kevin-kiley-on-his-recall-bid-and-plans-for-california-schools\">Assemblymember Kevin Kiley\u003c/a>, a Republican from Rocklin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s just saying whatever is necessary to cater to the agenda of the teachers unions who want the outcome of schools being closed,” Kiley said. “And he’ll give whatever rationale it takes to get there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, at a recent press conference, Newsom maintained he’s been following the science while also balancing the demands of a massive public education system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been working with our partners in our education system, 1,050-plus school districts. We’re trying to support the needs of 6.1 million public school kids,” Newsom said. “And we’ve been engaged to address the concerns and anxiety around reopening our schools.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Gordon, president of Capitol Advisors Group, which lobbies for school districts across the state, says many districts wanted Newsom to act unilaterally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Schools that normally don't like the state infringing on their local control were actually hoping the governor would just do a statewide edict that we’re closing schools physically so they didn't have to wrestle with the local politics,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gordon believes that overall, Newsom handled an unprecedented and complicated situation really well, but that he also found himself trapped in the very tricky position of trying to balance his support for public education with his loyalty to the labor unions that have long backed him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And where they became this conflict was wanting kids to be back in school, but his own constituencies across labor not wanting to come back,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Becky Zoglman, associate executive director of the California Teachers Association, points out that teachers and school employees weren’t the only ones concerned about returning to in-person learning — many parents were also very hesitant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When schools started to reopen, for example, 70% of parents in Los Angeles chose to keep their kids home and that played out in districts across the state,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom continues to face staunch criticism for how he handled — and continues to handle — the return-to-school situation. He was particularly lambasted for issuing \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/07/17/governor-gavin-newsom-lays-out-pandemic-plan-for-learning-and-safe-schools/\">strict school COVID guidelines\u003c/a> in advance of the 2020-21 school year, but then not being more forceful about reopening schools in the spring when vaccines became widely available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacigalupi, with OpenSchoolsCA, says it seems like education was never a priority for Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Instead of saying, ‘Schools are essential, they must be open, how do we do it?,’ it was, ‘Can we open schools?’” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has also taken heat for sending his own children back to in-person learning at their \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2020/10/30/newsom-sends-his-children-back-to-school-classrooms-in-california-1332811\">private school\u003c/a> last fall, even as most California public school students were at that point still participating remotely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even now that most schools are reopening, Newsom is still facing challenges, amid a surge in cases of the highly contagious delta variant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just this month, \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/566633-newsom-sued-over-school-mask-mandate\">he was sued\u003c/a> by the Orange County Board of Education over the state’s requirement that all adults and students wear masks indoors in K-12 schools, even if they’ve been fully vaccinated.

I have supported Democrats my whole life,” she said. “But I understand parents who are in the same boat as me, who are supporting this purely because of what happened with their kids this year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s handling of education has helped fuel the recall effort, and been a key talking point for recall candidates like \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11883011/kevin-kiley-on-his-recall-bid-and-plans-for-california-schools\">Assemblymember Kevin Kiley\u003c/a>, a Republican from Rocklin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s just saying whatever is necessary to cater to the agenda of the teachers unions who want the outcome of schools being closed,” Kiley said. “And he’ll give whatever rationale it takes to get there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, at a recent press conference, Newsom maintained he’s been following the science while also balancing the demands of a massive public education system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been working with our partners in our education system, 1,050-plus school districts. We’re trying to support the needs of 6.1 million public school kids,” Newsom said. “And we’ve been engaged to address the concerns and anxiety around reopening our schools.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Gordon, president of Capitol Advisors Group, which lobbies for school districts across the state, says many districts wanted Newsom to act unilaterally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Schools that normally don't like the state infringing on their local control were actually hoping the governor would just do a statewide edict that we’re closing schools physically so they didn't have to wrestle with the local politics,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gordon believes that overall, Newsom handled an unprecedented and complicated situation really well, but that he also found himself trapped in the very tricky position of trying to balance his support for public education with his loyalty to the labor unions that have long backed him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And where they became this conflict was wanting kids to be back in school, but his own constituencies across labor not wanting to come back,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Becky Zoglman, associate executive director of the California Teachers Association, points out that teachers and school employees weren’t the only ones concerned about returning to in-person learning — many parents were also very hesitant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When schools started to reopen, for example, 70% of parents in Los Angeles chose to keep their kids home and that played out in districts across the state,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom continues to face staunch criticism for how he handled — and continues to handle — the return-to-school situation. He was particularly lambasted for issuing \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/07/17/governor-gavin-newsom-lays-out-pandemic-plan-for-learning-and-safe-schools/\">strict school COVID guidelines\u003c/a> in advance of the 2020-21 school year, but then not being more forceful about reopening schools in the spring when vaccines became widely available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bacigalupi, with OpenSchoolsCA, says it seems like education was never a priority for Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Instead of saying, ‘Schools are essential, they must be open, how do we do it?,’ it was, ‘Can we open schools?’” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has also taken heat for sending his own children back to in-person learning at their \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2020/10/30/newsom-sends-his-children-back-to-school-classrooms-in-california-1332811\">private school\u003c/a> last fall, even as most California public school students were at that point still participating remotely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And even now that most schools are reopening, Newsom is still facing challenges, amid a surge in cases of the highly contagious delta variant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just this month, \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/566633-newsom-sued-over-school-mask-mandate\">he was sued\u003c/a> by the Orange County Board of Education over the state’s requirement that all adults and students wear masks indoors in K-12 schools, even if they’ve been fully vaccinated. The California Supreme Court last week \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-08-19/orange-county-mask-challenge-denied\">declined to hear the case\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Gavin Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11884520/your-guide-to-the-gavin-newsom-recall-election\">in more trouble than previously thought\u003c/a>, even as ballots are already landing in voters' mailboxes across the state. It was against that backdrop that the governor and his main challengers held in-person and online media events Friday in hopes of rallying voters to their cause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom returned to the city he once governed for his event, surrounding himself with a who's-who of San Francisco politicos who collectively sang his praises. They also warned about the cost of apathy among Democrats who might not be taking the recall threat seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're here because the polls are close. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11882496/new-poll-shows-potential-problems-for-newsom-heading-into-recall\">They are too close\u003c/a>,\" said Assemblymember David Chiu, D-San Francisco, one of the elected officials gathered at Manny's in the city's Mission district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warning against overconfidence, Chiu asked Democrats to \"remember how we all felt the night before the election in 2016, the presidential election.

Kevin Paffrath, \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/Kevin_Paffrath\">a Southern California realtor known for his investment advice videos on YouTube\u003c/a>, is the only Democrat to make any traction in the polls. On Friday, he stood outside of Newsom's rally, offering himself as a \"backup\" in case the governor is ousted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't need to leave question two blank,\" said Paffrath. \"Leaving question two blank is a lack of civic duty, it's sabotage of democracy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only opposing candidate Newsom mentioned by name was Larry Elder, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11881314/zero-political-experience-makes-me-a-great-candidate-for-governor-says-talk-show-host\">the Los Angeles-based talk show host who is leading the replacement field in the polls\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor slammed Elder's positions on abortion rights, gun control, taxes and the minimum wage, labeling Elder \"to the right of Donald Trump.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Larry Elder is running away with this on the other side,\" Newsom said. \"I just hope folks [know] what could happen on Election Day if we don't turn out in historic numbers to vote no on this recall.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elder, the darling of conservative media appeared on a Zoom press conference where he was introduced by former Monterey Park Mayor Betty Chu. In his remarks, Elder emphasized public safety and the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes, promising to build more prisons and reverse parole recommendations for people who committed violent crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1425984566012092422\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elder also announced he was supporting efforts to recall \"soft on crime\" district attorneys George Gascon in Los Angeles and Chesa Boudin in San Francisco. (Boudin was among those appearing at Newsom's press conference.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elder also decried recent calls for police reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Many people on the left argue that the police are using deadly force against Black people just because they're Black,\" Elder said. \"And the studies have shown for decades that is not true.\" The radio personality alleged that relentless criticism of police use of excessive force have led to \"passive policing, as opposed to proactive policing,\" meaning more officers are just sitting in their cars phoning in calls rather than actively pursing criminals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elder promised to reverse the trend toward rehabilitation instead of longer periods of incarceration, even though much of that would require a vote of the people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I also think that we need to build enough prisons to store people who committed bad things,\" he said. \"I think people who commit crimes should be put behind bars for the length of their sentences and I'm going to be tough on crime.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elder, who is Black, spent considerable time talking about issues affecting people of Asian descent, including hate crimes, in a way that could stoke interracial animosity.[aside tag=\"recall\" label=\"More recall coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\"\u003c/b>The dirty little secret is that a lot of Asian Americans are being attacked by Blacks and the newspapers want it underreported because they don't want to make Black people look bad.

He called out\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11858202/lowells-black-students-and-alumni-push-elite-sf-school-to-confront-history-of-racism\"> Lowell High School in San Francisco\u003c/a>, where the San Francisco Board of Education recently voted to end admissions based on grades and merit and instead use a lottery-based system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That, to me, is an attack on merit and is an unfair attack on qualified, hardworking Asian American students,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the event, the Elder campaign said preference for following questions would be given to \"media from the communities affected by the issues we will discuss.\" True to their word, the campaign only called on reporters from Chinese-language news outlets, including one who described himself as \"a longtime fan.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To date, Elder, along with Caitlyn Jenner, has declined to participate in candidate debates with fellow Republicans, including one next week sponsored by the Sacramento Press Club.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of the replacement candidates will become governor unless a majority of voters supports the recall. In that case, whichever candidate gets the most votes, no matter how small the percentage, will become governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last day to vote in the recall election is September 14.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom, in which California voters will decide whether he should be replaced. Ballots are already being sent out to the state’s registered voters in some counties, and all voters should have their ballots by next week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last gubernatorial recall election in California was back in 2003, when Arnold Schwarzenegger was elected to replace then-governor Gray Davis. Read on for the key points about the 2021 Newsom recall election, from what’s on your ballot to how voting works — there could be some elements you might not be aware of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if you’re interested in why this election is even happening and how we got here, take a look at this \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11884520/your-guide-to-the-gavin-newsom-recall-election\">explainer from our friends at Bay Curious\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Even if you don’t want to recall Newsom, you should still vote\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If more than 50% of the total voters in this recall election say “yes” to recalling Newsom, he will be recalled and whichever replacement candidate gets the most votes will become governor in late October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The replacement candidate won’t need a majority of votes. It also won’t matter how few votes they get. They will become governor of California for the next year and a half, for the rest of Newsom’s term.[pullquote size='medium' align='right']The deadline to \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/\">register online to vote\u003c/a> is Monday, Aug. 30.[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If more than 50% of voters say “no” to the recall, Newsom will continue as governor until his term ends on Jan. 2, 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All this means that even if you believe Newsom should remain governor of California, you should actively vote for that outcome, rather than sitting it out. Your lack of a vote won’t count as a vote against the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Everyone’s getting a mail-in ballot (again)\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Just as in the 2020 general election, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/vote-mail\">if you’re registered to vote you’ll be receiving a mail-in ballot by default\u003c/a> for the recall election, without requesting it.[pullquote size='medium' align='right']Election Day for the recall is Sept. 14.[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remember: Your ballot will be sent to the address at which you’re registered to vote, so \u003ca href=\"https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/\">check now that your address is correct\u003c/a> — especially if you moved in the last year. And \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/\">if you’re not already registered to vote, you can do it online or by mail until Aug. 30\u003c/a>. If you miss that deadline, you can still conditionally register at any voting location through Election Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>You might find the recall question you’re voting on confusing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Your ballot has two things to vote on, in the form of two questions: whether you want to recall Newsom, and which candidate you want to succeed him if he is recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Question 1 reads: “Shall GAVIN NEWSOM be recalled (removed) from the office of Governor?” Yes or no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This means that if you vote “yes,” you’re voting to recall Newsom and remove him from his position as governor of California. If you vote “no,” you’re voting to keep Newsom as governor of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s important to clarify this, because the yes/no expression of Question 1 might be confusing to some folks. For example, some might think a “yes” vote means a thumbs-up for Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next on your ballot, Question 2 has a list of 46 candidates who could succeed Newsom if he is recalled. You can choose one. Which leads us to …\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Even if you don’t want to recall Newsom, you can still vote for a hypothetical replacement…\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Even if you vote “no” on recalling Newsom on Question 1 of your ballot, you can still answer Question 2 by choosing a candidate to succeed him in the event that the recall effort is successful. And for folks who didn’t vote in the last recall election back in 2003, or don’t remember it, that concept might not be obvious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re voting “no” on the recall, you might think “if I don’t want Newsom to be recalled, why should I choose his potential replacement?” The answer to that is: If Newsom \u003cem>is\u003c/em> recalled, your choice of candidate will still actively count toward who replaces him as governor. Answering Question 2 by choosing a succession candidate doesn’t affect or invalidate a “no” answer to Question 1 about the recall itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In short, by voting on Question 2, you’ll have a say in who California’s next governor is if Newsom were to be recalled, even if you vote against the recall. But if you leave Question 2 blank, you won’t have that say.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>… and you can’t just write in Newsom’s name\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If you’re voting “no” on the recall in Question 1, you may also be tempted to write in Gavin Newsom’s name in Question 2 rather than choosing one of the replacement candidates listed. But if you do this, your write-in won’t be counted, as Newsom can’t run against himself in the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This also applies to any other candidates you write in who aren’t official replacement candidates (i.e., listed on the ballot) or who haven’t formally applied to be a write-in candidate. \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/upcoming-elections/2021-ca-gov-recall/newsom-recall-faqs\">Read more about how write-in candidates work on your ballot.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11833305\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11833305\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/election2020.png\" alt=\"Election 2020 is drawing closer.

So in this recall election, it’s as crucial as ever to make sure you have a plan for voting on time — and if you’re not voting in person, that means making sure you get your ballot into a mailbox or into a secure voting drop box, at a polling location or your county elections office, by the time polls close on Sept. 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Missed the deadline to register to vote? Don’t panic\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If you miss the Aug. 30 deadline to register to vote, you can register via what’s called \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/same-day-reg\">Same Day Voter Registration\u003c/a> (also known as Conditional Voter Registration). If you’re doing this on Election Day itself, you can register and vote at the same time at your polling place — \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/polling-place\">find details of your polling place here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re unhoused or have no fixed address, you can still register to vote by providing a description of the place where you spend most of your time, including cross streets. You can \u003ca href=\"https://registertovote.ca.gov/\">register to vote this way via online application\u003c/a> — deadline Aug. 30 — or on the paper voter registration application you can pick up at any Department of Motor Vehicles field office, or many post offices, public libraries, government offices or \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voting-resources/county-elections-offices\">your county elections office\u003c/a> by request.

And \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/\">if you’re not already registered to vote, you can do it online or by mail until Aug. 30\u003c/a>. If you miss that deadline, you can still conditionally register at any voting location through Election Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>You might find the recall question you’re voting on confusing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Your ballot has two things to vote on, in the form of two questions: whether you want to recall Newsom, and which candidate you want to succeed him if he is recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Question 1 reads: “Shall GAVIN NEWSOM be recalled (removed) from the office of Governor?” Yes or no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This means that if you vote “yes,” you’re voting to recall Newsom and remove him from his position as governor of California. If you vote “no,” you’re voting to keep Newsom as governor of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s important to clarify this, because the yes/no expression of Question 1 might be confusing to some folks. For example, some might think a “yes” vote means a thumbs-up for Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next on your ballot, Question 2 has a list of 46 candidates who could succeed Newsom if he is recalled. You can choose one. Which leads us to …\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Even if you don’t want to recall Newsom, you can still vote for a hypothetical replacement…\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Even if you vote “no” on recalling Newsom on Question 1 of your ballot, you can still answer Question 2 by choosing a candidate to succeed him in the event that the recall effort is successful. And for folks who didn’t vote in the last recall election back in 2003, or don’t remember it, that concept might not be obvious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re voting “no” on the recall, you might think “if I don’t want Newsom to be recalled, why should I choose his potential replacement?” The answer to that is: If Newsom \u003cem>is\u003c/em> recalled, your choice of candidate will still actively count toward who replaces him as governor. Answering Question 2 by choosing a succession candidate doesn’t affect or invalidate a “no” answer to Question 1 about the recall itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In short, by voting on Question 2, you’ll have a say in who California’s next governor is if Newsom were to be recalled, even if you vote against the recall. But if you leave Question 2 blank, you won’t have that say.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>… and you can’t just write in Newsom’s name\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If you’re voting “no” on the recall in Question 1, you may also be tempted to write in Gavin Newsom’s name in Question 2 rather than choosing one of the replacement candidates listed. But if you do this, your write-in won’t be counted, as Newsom can’t run against himself in the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This also applies to any other candidates you write in who aren’t official replacement candidates (i.e., listed on the ballot) or who haven’t formally applied to be a write-in candidate. \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/upcoming-elections/2021-ca-gov-recall/newsom-recall-faqs\">Read more about how write-in candidates work on your ballot.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11833305\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11833305\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/election2020.png\" alt=\"Election 2020 is drawing closer.

"content": "\u003cp>Just when Californians thought they were done with elections for a while, a new one pops on the scene. If you haven’t been paying attention, there’s an election to recall Governor Gavin Newsom coming up. Here’s a primer with nitty-gritty voting details, some context for the campaign, and what you’ll find on your ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>When Is the Recall Election?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sept. 14, 2021. Local election officials will begin sending out vote-by-mail ballots by Aug. 16.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Do I Vote?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>You can vote by mail or in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For voting by mail: If you’re registered to vote, you will receive a mail-in ballot at the \u003ca href=\"https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/\">address you have registered\u003c/a> with the state. Be sure to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11840343/how-to-make-sure-your-mail-in-ballot-isnt-rejected-in-california\">sign and date your election envelope\u003c/a> before sending it back. Drop your completed ballot off at any U.S. Postal Service mailbox, or at the post office. There will also be ballot drop-off locations available in your county. Check with your county’s election office for details.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For in-person voting: Some counties have in-person voting sites that will open Sept. 4. Many also offer curbside ballot drop-off. Again, check with your county’s election office for details.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Are Recalls Common in California?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Recall attempts are very common, but it’s rare for a petition to collect enough signatures to go to a ballot. According to the secretary of state: “Since 1913, there have been 179 recall attempts of state elected officials in California. Eleven recall efforts collected enough signatures to qualify for the ballot and of those, the elected official was recalled in six instances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s worth noting the number of signatures needed to recall a governor in California is among the lowest in the nation. Only Montana and Virginia require a smaller percentage of signatures. Still, California is a large state, and running a recall campaign across many large media markets is an expensive proposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Did This Recall Attempt Make It to the Ballot?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>There have been five other signature-gathering attempts to recall Governor Gavin Newsom since he took office in 2019.

If you haven’t been paying attention, there’s an election to recall Governor Gavin Newsom coming up. Here’s a primer with nitty-gritty voting details, some context for the campaign, and what you’ll find on your ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>When Is the Recall Election?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sept. 14, 2021. Local election officials will begin sending out vote-by-mail ballots by Aug. 16.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How Do I Vote?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>You can vote by mail or in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For voting by mail: If you’re registered to vote, you will receive a mail-in ballot at the \u003ca href=\"https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/\">address you have registered\u003c/a> with the state. Be sure to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11840343/how-to-make-sure-your-mail-in-ballot-isnt-rejected-in-california\">sign and date your election envelope\u003c/a> before sending it back. Drop your completed ballot off at any U.S. Postal Service mailbox, or at the post office. There will also be ballot drop-off locations available in your county. Check with your county’s election office for details.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For in-person voting: Some counties have in-person voting sites that will open Sept. 4. Many also offer curbside ballot drop-off. Again, check with your county’s election office for details.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Are Recalls Common in California?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Recall attempts are very common, but it’s rare for a petition to collect enough signatures to go to a ballot. According to the secretary of state: “Since 1913, there have been 179 recall attempts of state elected officials in California. Eleven recall efforts collected enough signatures to qualify for the ballot and of those, the elected official was recalled in six instances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>After \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/2021/08/california-vaccines-teachers-mandate/\">months of reluctance\u003c/a>, Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a mandate on Wednesday that all California teachers and staff working on school campuses be vaccinated for COVID-19 or be tested weekly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the first such statewide mandate in the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We think this is the right thing to do, and we think this is a sustainable way to keep schools open,” Newsom said at a Wednesday press conference at Carl B. Munck Elementary School in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said the mandate would apply to staff as well as teachers, including “custodial staff, the bus drivers, folks that are critical to supporting the entire school ecosystem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now, Newsom had stopped short of such a requirement: He spent the past several months voicing confidence in school safety protocols that were based on increased ventilation and masking, while urging all school employees to be vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the Wednesday press conference, Newsom was flanked by Oakland school officials and representatives, including Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee, who said there was “no substitute” for in-person learning, which vaccines make possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our children, especially children from low-income communities — they cannot afford to take steps backward on their education,” she said. “As one of the greatest artists of all time, Marvin Gaye, reminded us: \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELNL_vRX4eQ\">Save the children\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children under 12 are not yet eligible for the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staffers at schools statewide will have various options to prove they’ve been vaccinated, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/Order-of-the-State-Public-Health-Officer-Vaccine-Verification-for-Workers-in-Schools.aspx\">according to the state’s health order\u003c/a>: They can present either a COVID-19 vaccination record card, a photocopy of the card, a photo of their vaccination card on a phone (or another electronic device), alternate documentation of vaccination from a health care provider, a digital record with a QR code compatible with a SMART Health Card reader, or documentation of vaccination from other contracted employers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staffers who are unvaccinated, even if they don’t have symptoms, must get COVID-19 tests at least once weekly with PCR or antigen testing, according to the California Department of Public Health. Those previously infected with the coronavirus are not exempt from the testing or vaccine requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, schools will be required to have a plan in place to track which workers are vaccinated and to track the testing. Schools also must report this data to local public health departments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s health order applies only to K-12 schools, not higher education. Some funding is available to help schools implement the new requirements, including subsidized COVID-19 testing provided by the California Department of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CAgovernor/status/1425513813869170694\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the announcement, districts across the state formed a patchwork of various vaccination rules for school employees. San José Unified, San Francisco Unified, San Diego Unified and others were already requiring teachers to either be vaccinated or undergo regular testing.

Gavin Newsom issued a mandate on Wednesday that all California teachers and staff working on school campuses be vaccinated for COVID-19 or be tested weekly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the first such statewide mandate in the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We think this is the right thing to do, and we think this is a sustainable way to keep schools open,” Newsom said at a Wednesday press conference at Carl B. Munck Elementary School in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said the mandate would apply to staff as well as teachers, including “custodial staff, the bus drivers, folks that are critical to supporting the entire school ecosystem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now, Newsom had stopped short of such a requirement: He spent the past several months voicing confidence in school safety protocols that were based on increased ventilation and masking, while urging all school employees to be vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the Wednesday press conference, Newsom was flanked by Oakland school officials and representatives, including Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee, who said there was “no substitute” for in-person learning, which vaccines make possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our children, especially children from low-income communities — they cannot afford to take steps backward on their education,” she said. “As one of the greatest artists of all time, Marvin Gaye, reminded us: \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELNL_vRX4eQ\">Save the children\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children under 12 are not yet eligible for the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staffers at schools statewide will have various options to prove they’ve been vaccinated, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/Order-of-the-State-Public-Health-Officer-Vaccine-Verification-for-Workers-in-Schools.aspx\">according to the state’s health order\u003c/a>: They can present either a COVID-19 vaccination record card, a photocopy of the card, a photo of their vaccination card on a phone (or another electronic device), alternate documentation of vaccination from a health care provider, a digital record with a QR code compatible with a SMART Health Card reader, or documentation of vaccination from other contracted employers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staffers who are unvaccinated, even if they don’t have symptoms, must get COVID-19 tests at least once weekly with PCR or antigen testing, according to the California Department of Public Health. Those previously infected with the coronavirus are not exempt from the testing or vaccine requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, schools will be required to have a plan in place to track which workers are vaccinated and to track the testing. Schools also must report this data to local public health departments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s health order applies only to K-12 schools, not higher education. Some funding is available to help schools implement the new requirements, including subsidized COVID-19 testing provided by the California Department of Public Health.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
