A new poll has revealed conservative radio host Larry Elder is gaining popularity with California voters as Gov. Gavin Newsom faces a recall election in September.
The Emerson College/Nexstar Media poll, published on Friday, found 48 percent of voters still want Newsom to remain in office, even as momentum for a recall grows. 43 percent of people polled now say they will vote to recall Newsom - up from 38 percent in March.
If Newsom is removed from office, there are 40 candidates currently vying to replace him - and the new poll shows Elder leading the pack.
The 69-year-old Republican gets 16 percent of the vote share among those candidates, ahead of businessman John Cox and former San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer, who are tied in second place with 6 percent respectively.
Meanwhile, the poll shows Caitlyn Jenner struggling to gain traction among voters despite widespread name recognition. The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is polling at just 4 percent.
However, a majority of voters - 53 percent - say they 'don't yet know' who they would vote for should Newsom be removed from office.
And it will be an uphill battle for any of the candidates to replace Newsom, given that nearly half of all voters want him to serve out the remainder of his term.

Gruesome Newsom
Even if each and every single man, woman, child and thing living in the state of California votes for Larry Elder, there is absolutely zero chance the demonrat powers that be will allow him to win
caitlyn has man hands
Did the Libertarian Party put up a candidate or is it only Dems and GOP?
The rat always overpolls by 5 and any conservative always underpolls by AT LEAST
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The pollsters are in on the fraud too.
They have to over poll the dems to aet up the steal
Larry Elder is a very responsible individual and I saw that years ago when Jay Leno had him on the “Tonight Show”.
His family raised him right.
Jenner is running for Prime Minister of Australia I guess going down under to do a reality show.
I thought I heard a week or two ago that Jenner dropped out to do a movie.
Praying for Elder.
96% of those polled are transphobic.
“Is Larry Elder officially on the ballot now?”
Yes. The judge ruled in his favor a few days ago.
Excellent question. Need to ask my beloved husband.
Jeff Hewitt.
Go Larry Go.. Woohoo!!! Patriots are running for office all over the country ♥️🙏🇺🇸
Bottom line he is who he is. Happy that he’s a conservative, But he’s in a very precarious position. His message WILL be subverted by the LBGTQ +200 whatever community. As Rush used to say, dion’t doubt me.
Bruce is in Australia filming “Celebrity Big Brother”, obviously he is not a serious candidate. South Park making him Vice President probably went to his head.
He just wanted to trans form Cali.
Probably because HE is a man.
“Everyone here in LA knows who Larry Elder is”
You mean every conservative’ knows who he is in L.A..
