Republicans rip Gov. Newsom for changing recall rules midstream: Dems ‘cheat in plain sight’

“ramming through” legislation that will grant Gavin Newsom more control over his own recall, moving up the date in an effort to advantage the Democratic governor.

The Democratic supermajority moved on Thursday to provide Newsom with “a more favorable election date” after previously signaling they would do so, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins and Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon said in a statement that the state itself, not individual counties, will pay the anticipated $215 million costs of the recall effort, adding that the legislature will also “bypass the cost analysis period,” the paper noted.

“This funding will allow for an earlier recall election,” the lawmakers noted. “By providing counties with the funding they need, we can waive the required period for the Joint Legislative Budget Committee to review the election costs.”

Previously, the recall was expected to take place sometime in October or November, but by waiving some of the time constraints, the recall can now occur in late August or early September. Democrats appear content to move up the recall date while Newsom’s polling numbers appear to be stronger at the moment.

“He has rebounded well with vaccines and budget,” state Sen. Steve Glazer (D) tweeted on May 21. “His biggest threats are the unknowns: virus variant, fires, school reopening. No reason to delay and give opposition any more running room.”

How pathetic. It's fun watching a democrat authoritarian's political career go down the toilet. Even if he survives in CA he knows he has no shot at the presidency.
