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. We thought we had it in the bag.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As voters are \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11884716/newsom-recall-election-what-you-might-not-know-about-voting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">presented with a unique recall ballot\u003c/a>, Newsom focused his message on the first question at hand: Should the governor be removed from office?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a simple thing: Just vote 'no' and go to the mailbox and get these ballots back,\" said Newsom.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Larry Elder, talk show host and gubernatorial candidate\"]'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. But we don't get anywhere without telling the truth.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor urged voters to skip the second part of the ballot, which asks voters to pick a potential replacement for Newsom, should a majority vote to recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moments later, San Francisco Mayor London Breed struck up a chant: \"Just vote no!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nine of the 46 candidates vying to replace Newsom are Democrats. 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. But we don't get anywhere without telling the truth,\" Elder said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also criticized affirmative action, saying Asian Americans were often disadvantaged by it. 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.

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.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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. Those efforts failed to collect the 1,495,709 signatures needed (that’s 12% of the number of people who voted in the last gubernatorial election) within 160 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This petition was led by Orrin Heatlie, a retired Yolo county sheriff’s sergeant. Initially, it looked like it would also fail to collect enough signatures, but in November, a Sacramento judge gave recall proponents four additional months to gather signatures. The judge said arguments that the pandemic had inhibited proponents’ ability to gather signatures were “persuasive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11883827\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11883827\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paul Von Lutzow signs a petition in a recall effort against California Governor Gavin Newsom near Pasadena City Hall in Pasadena, California, on Feb. 28, 2021.

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>",

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. Those efforts failed to collect the 1,495,709 signatures needed (that’s 12% of the number of people who voted in the last gubernatorial election) within 160 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This petition was led by Orrin Heatlie, a retired Yolo county sheriff’s sergeant. Initially, it looked like it would also fail to collect enough signatures, but in November, a Sacramento judge gave recall proponents four additional months to gather signatures. The judge said arguments that the pandemic had inhibited proponents’ ability to gather signatures were “persuasive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11883827\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11883827\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/08/RS50551_GettyImages-1231446905-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paul Von Lutzow signs a petition in a recall effort against California Governor Gavin Newsom near Pasadena City Hall in Pasadena, California, on Feb. 28, 2021.

"content": "\u003cp>The last time a Republican was swept into California’s governor’s office as a result of a recall election, Kevin Kiley had a front-row seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early 2004, Kiley, having just wrapped up his freshman year of college, worked as an intern in the governor’s office as Arnold Schwarzenegger assumed the reigns of state government following his victory in the 2003 recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I kind of had a firsthand view of this effort to get a government up and running after a kind of unexpected change in personnel,” Kiley remembers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Kiley is hoping another unexpected change will land him in the governor’s office. Kiley, three-term state assemblymember representing Rocklin, is one of the leading candidates to potentially replace Gov. Gavin Newsom in the Sept. 14 recall election. The only member of the state Legislature on the ballot, Kiley says Newsom’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been marked by executive overreach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11883011/kevin-kiley-on-his-recall-bid-and-plans-for-california-schools\">In an interview with KQED’s \u003cem>Political Breakdown\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, Kiley laid out his case against Newsom, and argued his experience in state government will allow him to move quickly in pursuit of an agenda that includes a move away from mask and vaccine requirements, and education policies that favor charter schools and a school voucher program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Having spent five years at the Capitol, I know exactly how broken our state government is,” he said. “I know exactly what the problems are and how I go about fixing them on day one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Legislature, Kiley has emerged as a leading critic of Newsom’s pandemic response. He filed suit against Newsom to curtail some of the governor’s executive actions (a court of appeal disagreed with his claims), and he even wrote a book laying out his case for the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kiley now says Newsom is overreaching with his \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11883989/california-to-require-all-health-workers-be-fully-vaccinated-against-covid-19-by-end-of-september\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">push to require vaccinations\u003c/a> for public employees and health care workers. State officials say the rules are needed because infections are on the rise among health care workers, despite their early access to the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"recall\" label=\"More Recall Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People can make the choice for themselves as to whether they and their families do want to get vaccinated,” Kiley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kiley said his path into politics was shaped by a stint at Manual Arts High School in Los Angeles, where he taught 10th grade English and started a debate team while in the Teach for America program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had a really amazing experience, but I also saw how much our public education system is failing a lot of our kids,” he said. “The 10th graders that I taught would on average be at a fifth grade reading level when they came into my class.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Assembly, Kiley serves as the top Republican on the Education Committee.

Kiley, three-term state assemblymember representing Rocklin, is one of the leading candidates to potentially replace Gov. Gavin Newsom in the Sept. 14 recall election. The only member of the state Legislature on the ballot, Kiley says Newsom’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been marked by executive overreach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11883011/kevin-kiley-on-his-recall-bid-and-plans-for-california-schools\">In an interview with KQED’s \u003cem>Political Breakdown\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, Kiley laid out his case against Newsom, and argued his experience in state government will allow him to move quickly in pursuit of an agenda that includes a move away from mask and vaccine requirements, and education policies that favor charter schools and a school voucher program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Four Republicans vying to replace Gov. Gavin Newsom in California's Sept. 14 recall election lobbed relentless attacks at the incumbent governor in a televised debate Wednesday, while largely avoiding direct confrontation with one another on a host of state policy issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Faulconer, former mayor of San Diego; businessman John Cox; former U.S. Rep. Doug Ose; and state Assemblymember Kevin Kiley of Rocklin appeared onstage at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Orange County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With less than two weeks until ballots are mailed out ahead of the election, all four Republicans vowed to change the course of state government if elected to replace Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with a Democratic supermajority in both houses of the state Legislature, the candidates also acknowledged the limits of their ability to move California in a more conservative direction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Whoever wins this race is going to have one year to offer a viable alternative and set our state on a new course before the next election,\" said Kiley, who pledged to end California's state of emergency enacted in response to the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The candidates' criticisms of Newsom went beyond the pandemic to his handling of housing production, water management and criminal justice policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ose excoriated the governor for \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11882156/still-waiting-for-unemployment-new-edd-policy-could-speed-payments-to-hundreds-of-thousands\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ongoing problems\u003c/a> at the state's Employment Development Department, which has struggled to issue payments or even respond to questions from unemployed residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This really does lay right at Gov. Newsom's feet,\" said Ose, who demanded that agency employees \"just answer the damn phone” in one of the debate's more lively moments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite a rise in coronavirus cases driven largely by infections of unvaccinated residents, only Faulconer offered viewers a full-throated plea to get the vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I urge everyone to get vaccinated,\" Faulconer said. \"Vaccinations are how we get our way out of this — I'm vaccinated, my family is vaccinated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While all candidates opposed a state mandate for vaccines, Cox went further, arguing that residents who have contracted the coronavirus should not get vaccinated, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/faq.html#:~:text=Yes%2C%20you%20should%20be%20vaccinated,after%20recovering%20from%20COVID%2D19.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">despite Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance to the contrary\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think we should do mandates,\" said Cox, who lost to Newsom in the 2018 gubernatorial election. \"I think the governor's COVID management was an absolute disaster.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate veered at times from discussion of state policy on issues like homelessness and crime to national topics like China relations, critical race theory and cancel culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not a Republican primary debate,\" moderator Elex Michaelson of Fox 11 Los Angeles reminded the participants at one point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recall ballot will ask voters two questions: whether Newsom should be removed from office and who should replace him if a majority votes yes on the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate, broadcast across the state, comes amid growing alarm among California Democrats that Newsom may be politically vulnerable if he doesn't motivate his Democratic base in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11882496/new-poll-shows-potential-problems-for-newsom-heading-into-recall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Recent polling\u003c/a> from the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies found that among voters most likely to participate in the election, 47% support removing Newsom from office. An Emerson College poll released this week finds that a similar 46% of likely voters support the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the candidates all made their case for Newsom's removal, they mostly evaded direct confrontation with each other during Wednesday's 90-minute debate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ose, who represented the Sacramento area in Congress from 1999 to 2005, was the most aggressive of the quartet — criticizing Faulconer's handling of homelessness in San Diego and arguing that his own experience as a rice farmer makes him uniquely suited to deal with the state's perennial water issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Water is not theoretical to me,\" he said. \"These fellas, they know the story, they don't know the reality.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably absent from the stage was Larry Elder, the conservative talk show host who led the field of potential replacement candidates in both recent surveys. Elder opted to attend a fundraiser in Bakersfield instead of the debate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While he's been in the race for just three weeks, Elder trails only Cox and Faulconer in campaign fundraising. If elected, Elder \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11881314/zero-political-experience-makes-me-a-great-candidate-for-governor-says-talk-show-host\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has vowed to take aim at California's environmental protections\u003c/a> in order to spur development and economic activity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twenty-four of the \u003ca href=\"https://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/statewide-elections/2021-recall/certified-list.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">46 candidates who will appear on the ballot\u003c/a> as potential replacements for Newsom are Republicans, and the all-GOP debate lineup could bolster one of the governor's key accusations about the recall effort: that it's simply a Republican attempt to bring conservative leadership to California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier Wednesday, that argument received another boost when a Sacramento Superior Court judge issued a tentative ruling allowing Newsom to label the recall campaign a \"Republican recall\" in the state's official voter guide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recall proponents contested the description in a lawsuit, but the judge ruled that they failed to prove the branding was \"false\" or \"objectively untrue.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

An Emerson College poll released this week finds that a similar 46% of likely voters support the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the candidates all made their case for Newsom's removal, they mostly evaded direct confrontation with each other during Wednesday's 90-minute debate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ose, who represented the Sacramento area in Congress from 1999 to 2005, was the most aggressive of the quartet — criticizing Faulconer's handling of homelessness in San Diego and arguing that his own experience as a rice farmer makes him uniquely suited to deal with the state's perennial water issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Water is not theoretical to me,\" he said. \"These fellas, they know the story, they don't know the reality.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably absent from the stage was Larry Elder, the conservative talk show host who led the field of potential replacement candidates in both recent surveys. Elder opted to attend a fundraiser in Bakersfield instead of the debate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While he's been in the race for just three weeks, Elder trails only Cox and Faulconer in campaign fundraising.

Like Tiscornia and other local shop owners, he kept his doors open, and served as a hub for recall petition signing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just wanted to be part of the recall,\" he said. \"You can’t get a recall done or anything else done politically unless you have help.

But the high stakes and compressed calendar leading up to the Sept. 14 recall election are triggering a number of pivotal lawsuits with little time to spare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Faulconer's case, he's suing over Weber's rejection of his preferred three-word ballot description next to his name: \"Retired San Diego Mayor.\" (City names count as one word).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a letter to Faulconer, an attorney in Weber's office wrote that \"it is our understanding that you were unable to run for another term due to terms limits. As such you did not voluntarily retire, thus making your proposed ballot designation unacceptable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Candidacies really live and die on those three words of what's on the ballot,\" said elections law expert Jessica Levinson from Loyola Law School in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levinson notes that while the secretary of state's office is technically correct, Faulconer \"wasn't ousted by a recall. His term didn't end other than for reasons of term limits. So it's not clear what the better option here is.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Levinson noted that the election code very much limits the ways candidates can describe themselves in three words. \"You can't say 'termed out' because it's too many words. We know you can't say 'former.' We know you can't say 'ex-.' So what's the better option?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Candidates are allowed up to two alternative ballot designations in case their first choice is rejected. Faulconer offered just one: \"Businessman/Educator.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Twitter, political insiders offered several tongue-in-cheek options, including \"Emeritus Mayor San Diego,\" \"Erstwhile Mayor San Diego\" and \"Usetabee Mayor San Diego.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/scottshafer/status/1417591552684085249\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Elder's case, his name was excluded altogether by the secretary of state when the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11881560/its-official-41-republicans-vie-to-topple-newsom\">list of candidates who had filed the proper paperwork\u003c/a> was released Saturday night.

But election attorney Hertz said that does not seem to be the case here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In both of these lawsuits, it would seem to me they are in it to win it,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are not the first lawsuits filed against the secretary of state over the recall.

"content": "\u003cp>The date of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s recall election has been set. Voters will head to the polls Sept. 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lt. Governor Eleni Kounalakis set the date of the election Thursday, hours after Secretary of State Shirley Weber officially certified the recall. Weber’s certification came after she received the final election cost estimate of $276 million from the Department of Finance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Kounalakis said she believes she’s chosen a fair and reasonable date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has always been my intention to choose an election date that gives election officials and the public ample time to ensure a smooth election with broad participation,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Candidates who want to be considered for Newsom’s seat, should he be removed from office, have until July 17 to officially file for the race. Democratic political consultant Robin Swanson said the relatively short time frame makes it less likely the ballot will be swamped with possible replacements for Newsom, like it was in 2003 when 135 candidates vied to replace then-Gov. Gray Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what we saw in the Gray Davis recall election was everyone and their brother joining in as candidates and running for office,” she said. “And in this instance, people are going to have to file quickly. They either will have already announced that they are running or they’re going to have to do it in the next couple of weeks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process moved much quicker than was expected when the recall qualified for the ballot. Initially, it seemed most likely the election would take place in October or November. But as COVID rates fell and the economy boomed, Democrats started thinking it might be better for the election to be held sooner rather than later. Newsom even signed legislation this week aimed at speeding up the process. Swanson believes the earlier date will be good for the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll be ripping the Band-Aid off quickly and get it done in September so we can all move on with our lives and go back to governing the state of California,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even with their campaign time cut short, Newsom’s opponents are still determined to give the governor a fight. Former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, a Republican, said in a statement he’s ready to lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Change is coming for California and retirement is coming for Gavin Newsom,” Faulconer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Newsom appears to be in a strong position heading into the election. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11875264/new-poll-shows-support-idling-for-newsom-recall-effort\">According to a May poll\u003c/a> from the Public Policy Institute of California, just about 40% of likely voters think Newsom should be recalled. The poll also found 57% of likely voters say they will reject the recall effort on the ballot this fall, and vote to keep Newsom in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s campaign issued a statement describing the election as “a naked attempt by Trump Republicans to grab control in California.” It called on his supporters to “defend our state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The GOP field is expected to continue to grow. Conservative talk show host Larry Elder, 69, issued a brief statement Wednesday night saying he was seriously considering entering the race and would announce his decision early next week. His entry into the race would give the Republican field a jolt of celebrity sparkle and a name on the ticket known through his nationally syndicated radio show and appearances on Fox News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with Faulconer, other Republicans who have said they will run include Republican businessman John Cox, who was defeated by Newsom in 2018, former U.S. Rep.

Governor Eleni Kounalakis set the date of the election Thursday, hours after Secretary of State Shirley Weber officially certified the recall. Weber’s certification came after she received the final election cost estimate of $276 million from the Department of Finance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Kounalakis said she believes she’s chosen a fair and reasonable date.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has always been my intention to choose an election date that gives election officials and the public ample time to ensure a smooth election with broad participation,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Candidates who want to be considered for Newsom’s seat, should he be removed from office, have until July 17 to officially file for the race. Democratic political consultant Robin Swanson said the relatively short time frame makes it less likely the ballot will be swamped with possible replacements for Newsom, like it was in 2003 when 135 candidates vied to replace then-Gov. Gray Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They either will have already announced that they are running or they’re going to have to do it in the next couple of weeks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process moved much quicker than was expected when the recall qualified for the ballot. Initially, it seemed most likely the election would take place in October or November. But as COVID rates fell and the economy boomed, Democrats started thinking it might be better for the election to be held sooner rather than later. Newsom even signed legislation this week aimed at speeding up the process. Swanson believes the earlier date will be good for the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll be ripping the Band-Aid off quickly and get it done in September so we can all move on with our lives and go back to governing the state of California,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even with their campaign time cut short, Newsom’s opponents are still determined to give the governor a fight. Former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, a Republican, said in a statement he’s ready to lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Change is coming for California and retirement is coming for Gavin Newsom,” Faulconer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Newsom appears to be in a strong position heading into the election. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11875264/new-poll-shows-support-idling-for-newsom-recall-effort\">According to a May poll\u003c/a> from the Public Policy Institute of California, just about 40% of likely voters think Newsom should be recalled. The poll also found 57% of likely voters say they will reject the recall effort on the ballot this fall, and vote to keep Newsom in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s campaign issued a statement describing the election as “a naked attempt by Trump Republicans to grab control in California.” It called on his supporters to “defend our state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The GOP field is expected to continue to grow. Conservative talk show host Larry Elder, 69, issued a brief statement Wednesday night saying he was seriously considering entering the race and would announce his decision early next week. His entry into the race would give the Republican field a jolt of celebrity sparkle and a name on the ticket known through his nationally syndicated radio show and appearances on Fox News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with Faulconer, other Republicans who have said they will run include Republican businessman John Cox, who was defeated by Newsom in 2018, former U.S. Rep. Doug Ose and reality TV personality and former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Cox said “a new day” is coming for California and that “the insiders and allies have done their best to manipulate the election date for the pretty boy Governor, but it doesn’t matter. The people are tired of corruption and politicians who don’t deliver.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a recall election, voters would be asked two questions: First, should Newsom be removed, yes or no?
