Timing of Newsom recall election still in flux (could be August)

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - As the list of candidates who want to replace Governor Newsom grows, the process towards scheduling an expected recall election continues.

It's near certain Newsom will face a special election this year, but the question now, is when? Many analysts have estimated a November election, but now an earlier timeline is being floated.

"That’s going to be determined by a series of actions the legislature takes," said Newsom after being asked about an expedited timeline. "Department of finance takes, Secretary of State takes, and they’ll make that determination. Period, full stop."

**SNIP**

Some experts estimate the earliest it might occur is in late-August, early-September. Both sides are saying publicly, they're not concerned about timing.

Newsom's campaign spokesperson Nathan Click released this statement: "Our focus is on winning and we’ll beat the republican recall whenever the election’s called. That’s our approach."

Anne Dunsmore of Rescue California, one of the groups spearheading the recall effort, said "Bring it on. We got him either way."

Sonoma State political science professor David McCuan said there are things both sides need to consider about the timeline.

"Given the budget news, given the California rebound and recovery, what is happening; sooner is better than later for Gavin Newsom, the governor," said McCuan.

The ONLY reason it's in flux is because they are hoping things get better. As soon as they think it's better they will schedule it.

Funny how they had a limited time to get the signatures. Once they get them and all the signatures are verified, it then becomes “oh lets remove him say 20 mins before his term expires!”. You have the signatures. Get a rope and drag his ass out.

This recall will fall flat on its face. I predict it will fail.
