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.",

"content": "\u003cp>Reality TV celebrity Caitlyn Jenner gave her first television interview Wednesday night since her \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11870889/caitlyn-jenner-announces-run-for-california-governor\">entry into the California governor’s race\u003c/a> two weeks ago caused a media frenzy. And if her debut sit-down is any indication, the 71-year-old former Olympic athlete has a lot of distance to make up if she has any hope of winning the gold in the recall election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The interview was recorded in Malibu, where Jenner lives, with Fox TV host Sean Hannity’s show, a friendly platform for conservative Republicans like Jenner – who supported President Donald Trump in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hannity covered a wide range of topics, including the pandemic, immigration, water policy, policing and transgender youth, but Jenner offered mostly vague, meandering answers that belied a lack of knowledge about the major issues facing California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am an outsider,” Jenner said. “I understand that. Now I’m in a race for solutions. I need to find solutions to be able to turn this state around. I absolutely love this state. I’m a fighter. Always have been.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the top of the show, before Jenner joined, Hannity portrayed California’s struggle with the pandemic in the worst possible light, comparing COVID-19 statistics with Florida without offering any context. There was no mention that California now has the lowest case rate in the nation and that the economy is quickly reopening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Hannity asked Jenner about Newsom’s handling of the pandemic, she said he “has been absolutely horrible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s destroyed businesses. Thousands of businesses were destroyed, restaurants destroyed, not being able to open up. He should have done a better job,” she said, without offering any specifics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about agriculture and water, she said, “Water is a big issue,” before pivoting to the Sierra snowpack being low and veering toward high-speed rail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration? “I’m pro-illegal immigration,” Jenner mistakenly said. When Hannity gently suggested she meant to say “legal immigration,” she said, “Oh, did I leave out the legal part?” and thanked him for “watching my back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jenner said she disagreed with Trump on some things, like transgender rights. But she reiterated her support for Trump’s border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am for securing this state, I am pro-law enforcement. I am pro-border protection. Pro-ICE,” she said. “We need these people, and they do a wonderful job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hannity pushed Jenner on hot-button issues like sanctuary state policies and public benefits for undocumented immigrants. She refused to take the bait, offering up a “kinder, gentler” version of a conservative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='More Politics' tag='politics']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are a compassionate country, OK? We are a compassionate state. Some help, I mean, some people there we’re going to send back, OK, no question about that.

And if her debut sit-down is any indication, the 71-year-old former Olympic athlete has a lot of distance to make up if she has any hope of winning the gold in the recall election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The interview was recorded in Malibu, where Jenner lives, with Fox TV host Sean Hannity’s show, a friendly platform for conservative Republicans like Jenner – who supported President Donald Trump in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hannity covered a wide range of topics, including the pandemic, immigration, water policy, policing and transgender youth, but Jenner offered mostly vague, meandering answers that belied a lack of knowledge about the major issues facing California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am an outsider,” Jenner said. “I understand that. Now I’m in a race for solutions. I need to find solutions to be able to turn this state around. I absolutely love this state. I’m a fighter. Always have been.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the top of the show, before Jenner joined, Hannity portrayed California’s struggle with the pandemic in the worst possible light, comparing COVID-19 statistics with Florida without offering any context. There was no mention that California now has the lowest case rate in the nation and that the economy is quickly reopening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Thousands of businesses were destroyed, restaurants destroyed, not being able to open up. He should have done a better job,” she said, without offering any specifics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about agriculture and water, she said, “Water is a big issue,” before pivoting to the Sierra snowpack being low and veering toward high-speed rail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration? “I’m pro-illegal immigration,” Jenner mistakenly said. When Hannity gently suggested she meant to say “legal immigration,” she said, “Oh, did I leave out the legal part?” and thanked him for “watching my back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jenner said she disagreed with Trump on some things, like transgender rights. But she reiterated her support for Trump’s border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am for securing this state, I am pro-law enforcement. I am pro-border protection. Pro-ICE,” she said. “We need these people, and they do a wonderful job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hannity pushed Jenner on hot-button issues like sanctuary state policies and public benefits for undocumented immigrants. She refused to take the bait, offering up a “kinder, gentler” version of a conservative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Only days after a recall campaign aimed at Gov. Gavin Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11870959/newsom-recall-campaign-officially-has-enough-valid-signatures-to-force-election\">passed its highest hurdle yet toward making the ballot\u003c/a>, California Democrats used their annual party convention to rally grassroots activists around fighting what many described as a Republican power grab.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a prerecorded speech for the convention, held virtually, Newsom spent most of his three-minute remarks reminding Democrats of all the COVID-19 problems California inherited from the Trump administration and the steps he took to protect the state from the deadly pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Donald Trump did everything in his power to ignore the real realities of COVID-19, California,\" Newsom said. \"We took a completely different path, one paved by data, health and science.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, who critics say in fact let politics, not data, drive his pandemic-related decisions to reopen the economy and schools, pushed back against his critics who he claimed are trying to reverse California's progressive policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"National Republicans and extreme right-wingers, they're not sitting back,\" he said. \"They're throwing everything they can at their recall power grab, all in hopes — all in hopes — of rolling back all the important progress we have made together. And we can't let them win. If we place our faith over fear, perseverance and optimism over hate and division, the power — it's in our hands.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom was followed by Vice President Harris, whose speech capped an afternoon of speakers by recalling how she and Newsom both were elected to offices in California in 2003, calling him \"our friend and governor.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've seen firsthand what a leader he is and how he really does put his heart into his work on behalf of the people of California, and President Joe Biden and I support him 100%,\" Harris said, telling the convention that \"because of your hard work, we're going to keep Gov. Gavin Newsom in Sacramento and help Democrats everywhere win in 2022.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris, who never said the word \"Republican,\" touted the Biden administration's $2 trillion American Jobs Plan, stressing the importance of investing in access to affordable broadband, clean drinking water, clean energy and what she called \"the care infrastructure,\" which includes affordable child care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11870960\" label=\"Recall history\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier Saturday, former Gov. Jerry Brown appeared in a short, folksy video shot at his ranch in Colusa County. Without mentioning Newsom, Brown said, \"Yeah, we got rid of Trump but we still got lots of problems.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Newsom recall is expected to be one of the highest-profile political events in this off political year, and it's already attracting international media attention based in part on the entry of transgender reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner into the race to replace Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor is also using the recall to raise large sums of money to fight it. The campaigns for and against the recall are not subject to campaign contribution limits, and Newsom is taking full advantage of that, accepting donations as large as $250,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The election, expected to occur later this year, likely in November, will be just the second time in state history that voters will determine whether a sitting governor should be booted out before a regularly scheduled election. Gov. Gray Davis, who lost his recall and was replaced by Arnold Schwarzenegger, was the first in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Caitlyn_Jenner/status/1387147498783916034?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Participants at the convention included the party's most active members, and conventions like this are considered one of the best ways to build momentum and excitement among party members. The lack of in-person interaction makes that goal a bit more elusive as caucuses gather in virtual chat rooms to chew over issues and organizing strategies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prerecorded speeches from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Harris, Newsom and other party luminaries simply lacked the excitement of live speeches, with no standing ovations, chanting or unscripted moments. The only live reaction came from online viewers adding their comments in the chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former California Democratic Party Chair John Burton, known for his obscenity-laden comments didn't disappoint, urging delegates to defeat the recall and \"teach Republicans that they can't fuck with us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike past years' Democratic conventions, this one did not feature a controversial and divisive run for party chair. Recent chair races have led to bitter divisions between the party's most liberal members and those that hew more toward the center. Current chair Rusty Hicks, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11751703/california-democrats-elect-l-a-labor-leader-as-party-chair\">who took over the party in 2019\u003c/a> when the previous chair, Eric Bauman, resigned in a scandal, had solid support from labor and other key elements of the Democratic Party and did not face a serious challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He easily defeated former State Superintendent of Public Instruction Delaine Eastin by better than two to one to win another term as party chair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/scottshafer/status/1388628464975048707\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to focusing on the recall, speakers urged Democrats to get vaccinated, while also touting steps Newsom and the Legislature have taken to help small businesses and entrepreneurs struggling to stay afloat. Other touchstone issues included combating gun violence, climate change, hate crimes against the Asian community and racism within the criminal justice system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recorded videos sprinkled throughout the convention livestream included many featuring front-line workers, small business owners and others thanking Newsom for supporting them during the pandemic, an apparent effort to undermine Republican messages blaming Newsom for failure to lead during the health crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As California emerges from the pandemic — the state now has one of the very lowest COVID-19 rates in the nation — look for party activists and politicians to also emerge from Zoom and head to the streets for what is likely to be a very nasty recall campaign later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Holly McDede contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gavin Newsom from office has submitted enough valid signatures to force an election later this year, according to updated totals from county election officials released on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By clearing the threshold of 1,495,709 valid voter signatures, the campaign has set the stage for the political event of the year: just the second gubernatorial recall election in California history and a direct challenge to the Democratic leadership of the nation’s largest state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today is not about the politicians, it's about the people and it's about democracy in action,\" said Randy Economy, senior adviser to the recall campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Monday, counties reported 1,626,042 valid signatures in support of the recall election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This now triggers the next phase of the recall process, a 30-business-day period in which voters may submit written requests to county Registrars of Voters to remove their names from the recall petition,” said Secretary of State Shirley Weber in a statement. “A recall election will be held unless a sufficient number of signatures are withdrawn.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A KQED analysis of the Secretary of State's data found strong support for the recall petition in the Gold Country counties of Amador, Calaveras and Tuolumne, where 18-19% of registered voters signed on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Support for the recall petition was among the lowest in the Bay Area counties of Marin (where 1.5% of registered voters signed the petition), San Francisco (1.8%), San Mateo (2.0%), Alameda (2.7%) and Santa Clara (4.7%).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the recall now heading to the ballot, opponents of Newsom will have to shape an argument for replacing him that can win over voters in deep blue California, where Newsom won 62% of the vote against Republican John Cox three years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The people of California were locked down by Gov. Newsom,\" Economy added. \"His constant demand to make this about him and his edicts and his way or the highway I think is the thing that actually was his demise.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just 40% of likely voters support recalling the governor, according to polling released last month by the Public Policy Institute of California, with 56% of likely voters opposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Newsom’s job approval ratings have remained remarkably steady for more than a year in most polls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This election will be about two different visions for California,\" said Juan Rodriguez, campaign manager for the campaign opposing the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Republican recall – backed by partisan, pro-Trump, and far-right forces – threatens our values as Californians and seeks to undo the important progress we’ve made under Gov. Newsom - fighting COVID, supporting families who are struggling, protecting our environment, common-sense gun safety laws. There’s simply too much at stake – we will win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite their confidence, Newsom and his political advisers acknowledge that any ballot challenge needs to be taken seriously — after all, the campaign to qualify an election also began as a long shot. In February 2020, former Yolo County Sheriff’s Deputy Orrin Heatlie filed a recall petition that criticized a litany of Newsom positions, from immigration and taxation to water policy and the death penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11865133\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11865133\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A man signs a petition as activists gather signatures in a recall effort against Gov.

The dinner, when revealed, combined with increased frustration over school and business closures, propelled a surge in voter signatures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More on the recall effort\" tag=\"newsom-recall\"]The milestone reached Monday by the recall campaign is an early step in the long process toward an election that will likely take place toward the end of 2021.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Election officials in all 58 counties have until the end of the month to finish processing signatures. More than 100,000 petitions are still awaiting review. Secretary of State Weber has now kicked off a required 30-day period for voters to withdraw their name from the recall petition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former state Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata has launched a political action committee to contact voters and convince them to remove their names, though the identity of petition signers is not publicly available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There will be a variety of different hunches, and some data, some science and a lot of probably prayers and late-night hours, that we can mail to a couple million people and ask them, 'Did you really know what you were doing?' ” Perata said in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the withdrawal window ends, Weber will determine if enough signatures remain to proceed with the election. After that, the Department of Finance and state legislative committees will likely spend the remainder of the summer analyzing the election’s costs. That would leave Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis to set the election for 60 to 80 days later, likely in November or December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whenever the date is, all voters will be mailed a ballot just as they were for the November presidential election. That could drive up costs for county election officials in charge of putting on the election, said Kim Alexander, president of the California Voter Foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The registrars are anticipating that it could cost as much as $400 million to conduct this special recall election later this year,\" she said. \"Given the cost of mailing everybody a ballot as well as providing in-person voting options, that seems about right.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the federal government picked up the tab for many of the voting services offered by California counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't see that money out there this time, for this election and yet those costs are going to continue to be high,\" added Alexander.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several Republicans have already announced their intention to run for governor, including former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, businessman Cox and a real wildcard — reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner, who \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11870889/caitlyn-jenner-announces-run-for-california-governor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">announced her candidacy\u003c/a> on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Newsom,\" Economy added. \"His constant demand to make this about him and his edicts and his way or the highway I think is the thing that actually was his demise.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just 40% of likely voters support recalling the governor, according to polling released last month by the Public Policy Institute of California, with 56% of likely voters opposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Newsom’s job approval ratings have remained remarkably steady for more than a year in most polls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This election will be about two different visions for California,\" said Juan Rodriguez, campaign manager for the campaign opposing the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Republican recall – backed by partisan, pro-Trump, and far-right forces – threatens our values as Californians and seeks to undo the important progress we’ve made under Gov. Newsom - fighting COVID, supporting families who are struggling, protecting our environment, common-sense gun safety laws. There’s simply too much at stake – we will win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite their confidence, Newsom and his political advisers acknowledge that any ballot challenge needs to be taken seriously — after all, the campaign to qualify an election also began as a long shot. In February 2020, former Yolo County Sheriff’s Deputy Orrin Heatlie filed a recall petition that criticized a litany of Newsom positions, from immigration and taxation to water policy and the death penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11865133\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11865133\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/03/GettyImages-1231447209-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A man signs a petition as activists gather signatures in a recall effort against Gov.

More than 100,000 petitions are still awaiting review. Secretary of State Weber has now kicked off a required 30-day period for voters to withdraw their name from the recall petition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former state Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata has launched a political action committee to contact voters and convince them to remove their names, though the identity of petition signers is not publicly available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There will be a variety of different hunches, and some data, some science and a lot of probably prayers and late-night hours, that we can mail to a couple million people and ask them, 'Did you really know what you were doing?' ” Perata said in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the withdrawal window ends, Weber will determine if enough signatures remain to proceed with the election. After that, the Department of Finance and state legislative committees will likely spend the remainder of the summer analyzing the election’s costs. That would leave Lt. Gov.

Gavin Newsom likely facing a recall election later this year, Democrats are hoping to learn from what some see as the hard lessons from 2003, when voters approved the recall of then-Gov. Gray Davis, replacing him with Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lesson number one: Make sure no credible Democrat runs as an alternate to Newsom on the ballot. So far, California Democrats have solidly lined up against the recall, which Newsom framed as a “partisan power grab,” with none indicating any clear intention of running. That’s partly due to Newsom’s relative political strength and the likelihood that anger over the pandemic — which has helped fuel the effort — will be largely forgotten by the time voters cast ballots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in 2003, with Davis’ approval rating underwater and sinking fast, at least one Democrat saw the need – or opportunity – to run as a replacement candidate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At first, then-Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante said he “absolutely, 100%” would not run. But then he did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m here to tell everyone to vote ‘No’ on the recall and ‘Yes’ on Bustamante,” he said at the time, before a bank of TV cameras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garry South was Davis’ campaign consultant at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To say ‘No’ on the recall, ‘Yes’ on Bustamante was oxymoronic to the average voter. People didn’t get what it meant. It was completely, utterly disingenuous,” South said recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as Bustamante recently told KQED, he was trying to be a kind of insurance policy for Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What tipped the scales was when Arnold announced,” said Bustamante, who is now a political consultant. “I decided to run in this race in order to protect the state against the kind of politics that I believe Arnold would bring to the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reflecting back on that decision, Bustamante insisted it had nothing to do with the frosty relationship he had with Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But South says Bustamante’s decision to renege on his promise and run was pure political opportunism and calculation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South claims that months earlier, Bustamante had quietly asked the California Attorney General’s Office if there would be a conflict with him, as lieutenant governor, running during the recall while also setting the date for the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So all of his protestations about, you know, getting dragged into this thing with a public draft, ‘Oh Cruz, you got to run, you got to run,’ is all a bunch of crap. He was plotting to do this from the very beginning,” South said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Democrats fumed when Bustamante entered the race, GOP consultant Sean Walsh says the Schwarzenegger team had a very different reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“High fives, low fives, toasts, tequila shots. Rum raisin ice cream: It was a party all the way around if you were a Republican,” Walsh recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"recall\"]Walsh believes that the entrance of a major Democrat into the replacement race completely reshuffled the recall deck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once Cruz Bustamante made that decision to get into the race, it was like the breaking of the dam,” Walsh said. “All bets were off [because if] a Democrat thinks that Gray Davis isn’t doing what he should be doing and he’s the lieutenant governor, well, my goodness then there is something to be had here. … And it opened up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Davis’ approval ratings were historically low – in the 20s. So beating the recall was always going to be a tough climb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But South says by jumping in, Bustamante caused even more problems for Davis. For one, it upended the message that the recall was a Republican plot, an effort to reverse results of an election that happened less than a year earlier. And some voters saw it as a kind of twofer — a way to replace the disliked Davis with the first Latino governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So Arnold was clearly our biggest problem, but Bustamante was a close second,” South said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bustamante — a Central Valley Democrat — had a hard time raising money and was no match for the star power of Schwarzenegger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I knew what the consequences would be. If I lost, it may shorten my career. And I made the decision to run despite that,” Bustamante said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking back now, Bustamante describes his decision to run as “selfless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Frankly, I was taking one for the team,” he said, meaning the Democratic Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But “the team” sure didn’t appreciate it. Not only was Davis recalled, but Bustamante finished with just 31% of the vote, far behind the winner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three years later, Bustamante — who was still lieutenant governor — ran for state insurance commissioner, losing to a novice Republican, Steve Poizner. That made him the last incumbent Democrat to lose a statewide election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Bustamante had it to do over again, would he make the same choice?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We all make decisions in life, and if you know what the outcome is going to be and you can you still make that decision, then I have no regrets,” Bustamante said. “So whatever came after that, is it good or bad? It just is. I’m very at peace with all of that. I have no regrets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To Democrats like Garry South, Bustamante was a big reason Davis lost. Not surprisingly, Bustamante views things differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they were looking for someone to use as a scapegoat and they have for the last two decades said continuously that he lost because of my entering the race,” Bustamante said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s not alone. Fernando Guerra, a political science professor at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, says Davis’ loss was due to bigger factors than his lieutenant governor being in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Guerra thinks now it’s a mistake for Democrats to count on Newsom being popular enough to beat back the recall, which will likely be held in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What happens if there are tremendous wildfires out of control and the state doesn’t respond appropriately? What happens if the scandal with the Employment [Development] Department continues and gets even worse? What happens if there is another French Laundry moment? Given his career? He’s very capable of doing that,” Guerra said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By stopping Democrats from running, Guerra says, the party runs the risk of “handing the governorship to a Republican.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is political malpractice. The Democrats need to have a strategy and be prepared and coordinated,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eighteen years later, Bustamante dismisses the current recall against Gov. Newsom and does not think it’s necessary for a Democrat to run. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This recall is improper and without merit,” he said, adding that unlike Davis, “I think, frankly, that Newsom is going to win handily.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, Newsom’s advisers are circling the wagons to make sure no other Democrat jumps into the race while his campaign focuses its fire on Republican challengers, including the latest entrant, Caitlyn Jenner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at least one Democrat is rumored to be considering making a run — former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, who declined to comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It was completely, utterly disingenuous,” South said recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as Bustamante recently told KQED, he was trying to be a kind of insurance policy for Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What tipped the scales was when Arnold announced,” said Bustamante, who is now a political consultant. “I decided to run in this race in order to protect the state against the kind of politics that I believe Arnold would bring to the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reflecting back on that decision, Bustamante insisted it had nothing to do with the frosty relationship he had with Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But South says Bustamante’s decision to renege on his promise and run was pure political opportunism and calculation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South claims that months earlier, Bustamante had quietly asked the California Attorney General’s Office if there would be a conflict with him, as lieutenant governor, running during the recall while also setting the date for the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So all of his protestations about, you know, getting dragged into this thing with a public draft, ‘Oh Cruz, you got to run, you got to run,’ is all a bunch of crap. He was plotting to do this from the very beginning,” South said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Democrats fumed when Bustamante entered the race, GOP consultant Sean Walsh says the Schwarzenegger team had a very different reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“High fives, low fives, toasts, tequila shots. Rum raisin ice cream: It was a party all the way around if you were a Republican,” Walsh recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

So beating the recall was always going to be a tough climb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But South says by jumping in, Bustamante caused even more problems for Davis. For one, it upended the message that the recall was a Republican plot, an effort to reverse results of an election that happened less than a year earlier. And some voters saw it as a kind of twofer — a way to replace the disliked Davis with the first Latino governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So Arnold was clearly our biggest problem, but Bustamante was a close second,” South said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bustamante — a Central Valley Democrat — had a hard time raising money and was no match for the star power of Schwarzenegger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I knew what the consequences would be. If I lost, it may shorten my career. And I made the decision to run despite that,” Bustamante said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking back now, Bustamante describes his decision to run as “selfless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Frankly, I was taking one for the team,” he said, meaning the Democratic Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But “the team” sure didn’t appreciate it. Not only was Davis recalled, but Bustamante finished with just 31% of the vote, far behind the winner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three years later, Bustamante — who was still lieutenant governor — ran for state insurance commissioner, losing to a novice Republican, Steve Poizner. That made him the last incumbent Democrat to lose a statewide election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Bustamante had it to do over again, would he make the same choice?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We all make decisions in life, and if you know what the outcome is going to be and you can you still make that decision, then I have no regrets,” Bustamante said. “So whatever came after that, is it good or bad? It just is. I’m very at peace with all of that. I have no regrets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To Democrats like Garry South, Bustamante was a big reason Davis lost. Not surprisingly, Bustamante views things differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they were looking for someone to use as a scapegoat and they have for the last two decades said continuously that he lost because of my entering the race,” Bustamante said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s not alone. Fernando Guerra, a political science professor at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, says Davis’ loss was due to bigger factors than his lieutenant governor being in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Guerra thinks now it’s a mistake for Democrats to count on Newsom being popular enough to beat back the recall, which will likely be held in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What happens if there are tremendous wildfires out of control and the state doesn’t respond appropriately? What happens if the scandal with the Employment [Development] Department continues and gets even worse? What happens if there is another French Laundry moment? Given his career? He’s very capable of doing that,” Guerra said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By stopping Democrats from running, Guerra says, the party runs the risk of “handing the governorship to a Republican.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is political malpractice. The Democrats need to have a strategy and be prepared and coordinated,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eighteen years later, Bustamante dismisses the current recall against Gov. Newsom and does not think it’s necessary for a Democrat to run. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This recall is improper and without merit,” he said, adding that unlike Davis, “I think, frankly, that Newsom is going to win handily.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, Newsom’s advisers are circling the wagons to make sure no other Democrat jumps into the race while his campaign focuses its fire on Republican challengers, including the latest entrant, Caitlyn Jenner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It's been overwhelming in the lower quartile. It's been overwhelming in communities of color and underserved communities. And so we have a moral obligation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the Bay Area is still getting the same number of vaccine doses as before the change, so nothing is being taken away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The biggest challenge, Newsom said, remains vaccine supply, which he expects will increase dramatically in the next six weeks, especially in light of President Biden's announcement Thursday that there will be enough doses available for all U.S. adults by May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"newsom-recall\"]\"I think that should give everybody some confidence, some hope that there's a bright light at the end of this tunnel,\" Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor said the state now needs to find people where they are — particularly those in hard-to-reach communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He acknowledged that mass vaccination sites in cities like Oakland aren't accessible to everyone, both in terms of physical access and having to sign up for the appointments online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[With] mass vaccination sites, issues of access to tools of technology, the ability to navigate the internet, get on the bike, turn out and or even navigate the streets and get into a car.

I said in the speech, you learn from that, you move forward,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom on Friday also rejected calls by Bay Area leaders to rethink the formula the state is using to identify those vulnerable areas, which has resulted in most of the reserved doses going to Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for local politicians' request to change things?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No, we're committed to the 40% overlay because it's the right thing to do, the right thing to do,\" Newsom said. \"You've got to look at the disease burden. It's been overwhelming in the lower quartile. It's been overwhelming in communities of color and underserved communities.
